I'm glad the model doesn't have heavy censorship applied like some of the others.

You just know that if Elon wasn't trying to rehabilitate his whole "free speech" image, he'd have blocked anything that could criticize his views, while allowing everything that could criticize his opponents.

Nah, this is the kind of non-attack that Elon and friends are perfectly comfortable acknowledging. It helps their internal messaging at this point to have a public opposition who they can point to to say "these people hate you specifically and you should further consume our content and products to show them we mean business."
