wondering if you're talking about a twitter event pre-Elon (so people on the right were mad at the twitter exec) or post-Elon (so people on the left were mad at the twitter exec).

Guessing the former, since that would put the juxtaposition you're highlighting in left vs right terms...

Yes, I’m referring to the many very active discussions that occurred after Elon made “censorship of conservatives” on Twitter his pet issue which ultimately led to the Musk/Twitter circus. It coincidently became the pet issue of many around here at the exact same time. At the time it was supposedly about the importance of protecting the principles of free speech.

It’s become evident since then that it was really about protecting their preferred speech. Some of us suspected as much at the time.
