Did Elon ban Kanye for posting that unflattering shirtless picture of him?

I’m glad Conya is banned because he is a a dangerous racist. I also don’t believe Elon Mosk cares as much about antisemitism.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but the last tweet by Kanye bellie before being banned was a photo of Elon Musk looking not so sexy without a shirt.
Besides, today,l Elon Musk decided to bring back Nazi Andrew Anglin to Twitter, who said women ”deserve to be beaten, raped and locked in cages.”. He had been banned since 2013.

This is inconsistent with the theory that Elon Musk was outraged due to Kanye West’s incitement of violence.

I also don't believe Musk gives a damn about free speech. I think the two went back and forth privately and Musk felt Kanye defied him.

I get the feeling if you defy Musk or just appear to defy him, he can't handle it. The whole Kanye reinstatement blew up in his face - Musk can't handle that either. He looks bad.

I'll wager he tells workers to feel free speaking, then punishes them for it if he doesn't like what he hears.

I saw the photo in question and well, alrighty then. I would not have wanted that posted if it was of me.

His crusade against impersonators was suddently conceived right at that moment, when he was the target. He uses his power of top moderator as a revenge tool.
