Same here. (Granted, doxxing and violence are not cool, but from the article's reporting it's not clear if this actually occurred or was just alleged. I'm leaning more towards the latter - at least "standards" were probably applied more strictly and harshly. Musk wouldn't have had to personally ask for an intervention if these rules were generally and clearly getting broken....)

Yes of course, harassment should never be tolerated. I wouldn't be surprised if all these bans were because of Elon, u/spez is a huge fan of the dude.

Edit: is your username hex for something?

We're thinking the same thing.

Name is actually a hash of some of my former posts from spez's site, before I overwrote and deleted them (and reposted on kbin.social) and left for good.
