Elon Musk Urges His "Worst Critics [To] Remain On Twitter" After Buying App For $43B

April 26, 2022

Musk is a big advocate for free speech.

Elon Musk may be the proud owner of Twitter, but he isn't looking to kick his haters off of the platform after spending $43 billion on it; in fact, he's actually urging his critics to consider sticking around, despite his acquisition earlier today.

"I hope that even my worst critics remain on Twitter, because that is what free speech means," the South African-born entrepreneur wrote this morning, earning him an impressive two million likes and counting.



Just a few hours later, Musk shared a screenshot of a quote from himself, which has garnered nearly as much attention as his previous post. "Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated," he said.

"I also want to make Twitter better than ever by enhancing the product with new features, making the algorithms open source to increase trust, defeating the spambots, and authenticating all humans."
