Several days ago, @NorCal_AC was arbitrarily and capriciously banned. Then, when @WLMCalifornia posted in protest of NorCal Active Club's ban, they were in turn banned rather than having their concerns addressed.
Elon Musk has failed to discipline his X employees.
Yes, saying that Elon is a busy man is an understatement. Yes, his employees are oftentimes willfully defiant due to ideological reasons. But this is still ultimately his platform.
Free speech on X will be illusory unless there is accountability when employees violate it.
People continue to be given new bans such as the above accounts, or have ancient permabans remain unlifted such as Jared Taylor's.
The purpose of a system is what it does. At some point, inaction by Elon will ratify his employee's censorship as official policy. I certainly hope that will not be the case.

Ukrainian forces successfully attacked Russian vehicles in the capital city of Kyiv thanks to a public tip made through the encrypted messaging app Telegram, Ukraine's top law-enforcement agency said on Tuesday. There was another possible development: Reuters also reported that Ukraine said that Belarus could soon join the invasion of Ukraine. However, the AFP, citing a Pentagon official, said the U.S. hasn’t yet seen evidence that Belarusian troops are in Ukraine. Now safely in France with his spouse and three of his children, Kliuchnikov scrolls through Telegram to learn about the devastation happening in his home country. Some privacy experts say Telegram is not secure enough "For Telegram, accountability has always been a problem, which is why it was so popular even before the full-scale war with far-right extremists and terrorists from all over the world," she told AFP from her safe house outside the Ukrainian capital.
