Elon Musk attempts to SAVE free speech by paying legal bills of X Users

Elon Musk just can’t seem to stop winning over the hearts and minds of the right.

The owner of X (formerly Twitter) has taken a stand against cancel culture after announcing that he will pay the legal fees of people who were fired for their activity on Twitter.

In a tweet this past weekend, Musk wrote: “If you were unfairly treated by your employer due to posting or liking something on this platform, we will fund your legal bill. No limit. Please let us know.”

“And we won’t just sue,” Elon added. “It will be extremely loud and we will go after the boards of directors of the companies too.”

“Them sound like fighting words to me,” Sara Gonzales, BlazeTV host of "The News & Why It Matters," comments.

The announcement came just hours after 25-year-old NASCAR driver Noah Gragson was indefinitely suspended for liking a meme about George Floyd on social media.

While this is great news for conservatives everywhere, as they received the brunt of the censorship the past few years, Jason Buttrill notes this doesn’t account for all those who can’t get hired in light of their beliefs.

“There’s got to be like a list somewhere,” Buttrill says, “that says these are the people that are, you know, will not hire.”

While in general, Elon’s move appears to be a good thing, Buttrill also notes that the government was behind the censorship of social media posts and that members of the government are still pushing for more.

Ilhan Omar is one of these government officials.

According to Buttrill, the Minnesota representative recently said there need to be procedures and policies that clamp down on the online radicalization of white men.
