Elon Musk Claims He Will Grant ‘Amnesty’ to Blacklisted Twitter Accounts

Twitter owner Elon Musk claimed this week that he plans to grant “amnesty” for blacklisted accounts on the platform. Musk says the amnesty will be for users that had not “broken the law or engaged in egregious spam,” which may mean that many conservatives unfairly banned will be restored to the platform.

AP News reports that Elon Musk announced on Thursday that he will be granting “amnesty” for blacklisted accounts on the platform, leading many leftists to worry about a rise in “hate speech” and “misinformation.”

Musk’s announcement comes shortly after he launched a poll asking Twitter users to vote on reinstatements for accounts that have not “broken the law or engaged in egregious spam.” 72 percent of those that answered the poll voted yes.
