in our upside-down world,@MurdochCadell went to prison for exposing #AustralianSpecialForces' #WarCrimes. He's now free: I salute @MurdochCadell for his moral courage https://t.co/BTi51yOUt8 #MurdochCadell #WarCrimes #FreeSpeech #AU

Over a year ago, I reported that the Göttingen Public Prosecutor's Office (our beloved hate and incitement task force) was once again investigating me over a meme. The background at the time involved protests by left-wing (called "liberals" in American terms) women who were https://t.co/b578xiVuUc #FreeSpeech #Censorship #MemeWars #DE

This "hyper-correctness" is killing us all. What more "evidence" do we need? This never happened during covid pandemics. Crazy. #HyperCorrectness #CovidPandemic #FreeSpeech #None

I can't agree with this. When young start cancelling stuff you don't like, how do you bemoan when you're not liked and cancelled? If you don't like it, ignore it. Maybe I'm soft but aren't we against cancel culture and for free speech? #CancelCulture #FreeSpeech #YouthVoices #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

Strong words in @insidehighered about @UGent's letter suspending @nathancofnas: "Ghent argues that Cofnas’s criticism of Arday as “mentally disabled” and a "worthless scholar" was “an intentional and serious disturbance of the peace” that may violate “the Belgian Criminal #HigherEd #FreeSpeech #AcademicFreedom #BE

Since when is developing encrypted chat, email, and web hosting a crime? The #Trump administration is criminalizing a collective like the Italian #AutisticiInventati *collective* (is it actually a *collective*?) , whose tech tools can be used by anyone https://t.co/Ok4frflMkW https://t.co/2xbJjfK28M #Encryption #DigitalRights #FreeSpeech #IT

The shadow ban is back. It was only removed temporarily. When I mentioned that my reach is restored they put it back. Is Elon still in charge? #ShadowBan #ElonMusk #FreeSpeech #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.

The populist right, including Trump, has exploited the issue of free speech and “cancel culture” for its own authoritarian power grab. Pleny of unprincipled anti-woke “free speech warriors” are cheering on US government to impose ideological conformity https://t.co/YUCN8vmqdk #FreeSpeech #CancelCulture #Populism #US

Here is the full letter from Ghent University suspending @nathancofnas. As you can see, it’s one long heckler’s veto: the decision is not so much about Cofnas’ actual violations as about the flood of complaints and protests the rector has received, the reputational damage to the https://t.co/M6MGMfzJ3M #FreeSpeech #AcademicFreedom #Censorship #BE

Let me get this straight. YouTube deletes my channels with over 1M subscribers, 3,000+ videos and 7 years of hard work, despite me never having received a strike or warning.

Дъщерята кандидатства в университети в САЩ. Поиска от мен до края на месеца да си изтрия политическите постове от Фейсбук, които са пълни и с #FuckTrump. Отказах да го направя.

The ‘prominent Islamophobe’ is the creator of some of the greatest comedy ever made. Who is behind @5Pillarsuk? Where does its funding come from? Why are they apparently permitted to threaten members of the British public? #Comedy #Islamophobia #FreeSpeech #GB

Defining Zionism as a colonial ideology isn't prejudice: it's thought, hence constitutionally protected -says a Court (Bristol v. Miller, 2026 - EAT 84). Law, when true to itself, doesn't protect comfortable opinions but the right to dissent from power. https://t.co/OvwWtk7AJy #Zionism #FreeSpeech #LegalRights #IL

"We don't need to just debate whether Päivi Räsänen should have been allowed to transit through Britain. The bigger question is whether the West still believes free speech belongs to everyone, or whether it's only for those with approved opinions." https://t.co/tmBaQ77T60 #FreeSpeech #Debate #PäiviRäsänen #GB
