The beginning of an opinion piece in Die Welt that probably aims at the correct direction. The rest is behind a paywall, but you get the idea:

Elon Musk is a liberal visionary. The fact that he can now buy Twitter is good news for everyone who wants to defend freedom of speech against the woke speech bans of the zeitgeist. The catcalling already underway among the embittered elites shows just how important this is.

One piece of good news. Elon Musk can buy Twitter and thus take over a communication channel that in Germany has become a biotope of radicals of left and right provenance. The kind of minimalism that condenses zeitgeist fashions into discourse dictates spread between the poles.


In this country, an imperialist moralism is at work. It is particularly suited to the lifestyles of underemployed, semi-ambitious thinkers without a heavy burden of responsibility, who confuse their own lifeworld in the gentrified neighborhood of old buildings with reality.
