Elon Musk Says Nothing as Saudi Arabia Plans to Execute Man Over Tweets

Twitter’s self-proclaimed “free speech absolutist” owner, Elon Musk, has been conspicuously silent about one of the most egregious free speech violations to ever occur on his platform. Saudi Arabia has sentenced Mohammad Alghamdi to death for his anti-government tweets. After Elon Musk offered to pay the legal fees for individuals who were punished by their employers over tweets, he hasn’t even mustered the courage to simply condemn Saudi Arabia. It’s not just because he’s ignorant, and a coward, but because his financial ties to the Saudis means his condemnation could hurt his business dealings with them. In this video we’ll break down all of the details.
