The moment posed one of the biggest tests yet of the billionaire’s efforts to transform the site into a digital town square where just about anything goes.

This is disingenuous reporting of the NYT, just repeating Musk’s untrue “town square” meme, and saying “just about anything goes”. Anarchist and other left wing accounts were the first to be banned, and many accounts and posts from even mildly left or progressive accounts are banned and suppressed. You can’t even say the word “cis”. It’s not a place where anything goes. It’s a place where right wing content is protected and promoted. It’s a Nazi website. Say that.
