   How is Musk's ownership of Twitter while involved in government not a violation of the first amendment? When he bans people, that's literally the government suppressing speech. I'm sure someone who actually knows anything about US law will be able to explain it, because as a stoned person with no education in law, it seems fucked up

     (On the other hand he can make mass profit by abusing his power, but I'm no lawyer either so I can't point fingers to why this should be illegal. Plus, it's not like the oligarchs don't already play politicians like puppets, what's happening in the US is just a power move.)
