Elon Musk has restored Alex Jones' X account, 5 years after he was banned
Elon Musk had previously refused to reinstate Alex Jones' account, citing Jones' efforts to push a conspiracy theory about the Sandy Hook shooting.

He must not be getting enough attention. It's been, what? A week since Musk had his name in the news. It must have been killing him.
The fact that 1 single person gets to decide arbitrarily who is or isn't allowed to voice bullshit 'facts' on a worldwide medium that is copy-pasted by every newsagency and newspaper as if it is a main and legit source of actual news is just very very wrong.
Anything to prevent the userbase from shrinking...
Nope. Its about platforming a rightwing movement that the funders of the buyout can use to take control of the American body politic.
Remember how he lost a poll asking if he should step down?
He only follows through when he agrees with the outcome, just like he only supports free speech if he agrees with the speech... He would've brought Jones back either way, because he wants Jones on the platform.
Do you ever wish that you could delete your twitter account again? Once isn't enough.
If you have an account on that site and are actively engaging with the site, you are directly helping / supporting Musk and his racist bullshit.
Delete that shit (like reddit btw!!) and stay the fuck away.
Surely this will win back all of the advertisers uncomfortable with what a cesspool of bigotry and conspiracy theories Xitter has become.
It won't. And stop calling me, "Surely". ;-)
“Look over here! I’m relevant! Come to my website! I need the viewers and money from the advertisers! I’m still here! I’m going to keep doing extreme things so people talk about me and come to my website!”
Elon is the most divorced guy who has ever existed. He’s gonna get thrown out of a little league game for yelling at the 12 year-old umpire soon.
That would imply he cares enough about any of his kids to go to a little league game.
OP never said he'd be there to see his kids.
Came to post this!!!
Shitbirds of a feather flock together.
Elon knows who supports him.
Spineless
Elon doing something stupid? Must be a day that ends with Y.
I just hope he loses more money when he starts with his bs all over again
Elron probably thinks he's the Dei in "Vox Populi, Vox Dei"
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Elon Musk has restored the X account of Alex Jones, the Infowars founder who was permanently banned from the platform formerly known as Twitter more than five years ago.
Jones, a far-right commentator best known for pushing the conspiracy theory that the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting was a hoax, returned to the website on Sunday and reposted a number of celebratory messages.
Since Musk bought X in October 2022, he has restored a number of prominent banned accounts, including those belonging to Donald Trump, Andrew Tate, and Kanye West.
But until December 7, Musk had refused to consider restoring Jones' account despite his purported commitment to free speech on the platform.
Citing Jones' views on the Sandy Hook shooting, Musk said last year he had "no mercy for anyone who would use the deaths of children for gain, politics, or fame."
Twitter ultimately banned Jones in September 2018, saying his tweets and videos violated the company's "abusive behavior policy."

BREAKING NEWS:
Alex Jones changes his name to X-Jones and rebrands his business as XxINFOWARSxX in honor of his good buddy Elon Musk who definitely isn't one of the elite, baby blood drinking, adrenochrome injecting, psyop running, reptilian overlords who burns effigies of Moloch while hangs out with his best buds at Bohemian Grove every summer.
