The issue is the obvious inconsistency in moderation based on political ideology. Of course reactionaries will claim they have been the ones picked on the whole time but this isn't really the case. Chaya Raichik was a perfect example, as there were explicit instructions not to ban her permanently.

Theres also Dom Lucre, who posted CSAM content on Twitter (presumably to condemn it). He was initially banned on Twitter but later brought back by Musk.

If Elon Musk had been acting in good faith then at the very least some of the prominent far left accounts wouldn't have been banned or driven off. But his own actions contradict his claims for a desire for a free marketplace of ideas.
