Foreign Ministry spokesman Emmanuel Nahshon appears to criticize new Twitter owner Elon Musk for failing to crack down on hate speech on the platform.
Nahshon screen captures a response he received to one of his tweets in which the writer claimed the Holocaust never happened.
“For many extremists, the freedom of speech is simply the freedom to spew venom. A Twitosphere [Twittersphere] without clear rules of conduct and ethics will become quickly a very unpleasant place for most of us,” Nahshon writes.
Musk has sought to ease restrictions on what Twitter users can post, justifying the moves as necessary to allow for freedom of speech.
That’s the kind of disturbing messages I’ve been receiving lately on Twitter. For many extremists, the freedom of speech is simply the freedom to spew venom. A Twitosphere without clear rules of conduct and ethics will become quickly a very unpleasant place for most of us… pic.twitter.com/2lVEGSmQrJ
