You should read the article. It details how Musk followed the text's suggestions exactly, and is aligning himself closely with the same far right neo-nazis that begged him to buy Twitter and deplatform it.

Even if that exact text didn't convince him, one of the well known far right political pundits has definitely tried. Free speech is like their worst enemy, they can't let Twitter be open to all that free information.
