Wokeness may be dead in Florida, but it is very much alive on Twitter. DeSantis will undoubtedly use his influence with his new pal, Elon Musk, to put an end to it. Will he succeed?
No, for three reasons. First of all, Musk calls himself a “free speech absolutist;” running off the far left would be an act of extreme hypocrisy. Second, it would cost him money. Third, he enjoys being a troll; how can he own the libs if they can’t say anything worth demolishing?
The bottom line here is that, barring the assumption of vast emergency powers (an outcome that is far from impossible), it will be very difficult for a President DeSantis to shut the left up once and for all.
