I'm not a fan of him, nor a twitter user, but as far as free speech is concerned, that should mean your opinion is not censored, but the platform doesn't have to be free to use, but if it doesn't discriminate opinions, and everyone is allowed to make an account, and everyone has to pay the same

That's equal treatment, and isn't going against free speech.

None of that was ever true for Twitter, anyway. It wasn't true before Musk bought it and it's only got worse.
