I've pretty much given up ever thinking there's going to be a genuinely organic return to a state of blissful liberty.
Nearly every instance in which people were led out of bondage, there was usually some ulterior motive just beneath the surface. Sometimes nefarious, or sometimes just self-serving and relatively benign.
Having said that, I do well enough to 'get while the getting's good.' Because that's pretty much all I'm left with. We're beyond battening down the hatches at this point.
So if Musk tears down this whole woke censorship culture, only to turn it all back over in the end, maybe it's just the best I can hope for. The alternative here, is that Musk is a sneaky little snake, and I *STILL* have this giant Orwellian apparatus to contend with, in which case I haven't really lost anything, but might have gained at least something in the meantime, however fleeting.
I still don't know what to think about Musk. Maybe at best, I think he just another tech-nerd who will undoubtedly usher in another phase of big brother surveillance tools even if that isn't his intent. "Throw it in the woods" and all that.
