I hate Musk as much as anyone, but it's a shit decision by Brazil

Is it not Musks decision? I thought the situation was more akin to "Your house your rules? I don't like your rules so I'm packing a bag and running away."

You're defending censoring people who are speaking out against the government. How is that a good thing?

They tried a coup (with the military and the brazilian rural oligarchs), so it's not "censorship", it's enforcing that Brazil is a democratic (even if very flawed) country. The constitution give this right to the supreme court and him (he was the supreme judge for the last election, so dealing with the aftermath of the election is his obligation), so it's a lot more nuanced than you might say.

Edit: If Musk doesn't respect our laws, let him get out of here haha.
