"For one, his converting Twitter into a privately-owned company..."

It wasn't a private company before Musk?

"Twitter had previously taken a much more protected stance against content they deemed as hate speech..."

Protected stance? Is that what we're calling censorship?

Hate speech? Like objections to a manufactured public health crisis?

I have never been on Twitter. Now that Musk owns it, I will be joining.

No. It wasn’t a privately owned company, it was publicly owned with accountability to its shareholders. They did have measures in place to combat hate speech, though it was not always the most effective. And by hate speech I mean actual hate speech, not Covid conspiracies.
