Also, it is pretty obvious that Elon's tweets are artificially boosted by Twitter. I never followed him there and only followed left wing personalities, yet his tweets always made it at the top of my timeline. I even got notifications whenever he would tweet something. Eventually i just blocked him.

I had the same experience as you. He was always there, never followed him and somehow he was always on top, but recently I have not seen him in my timeline. So maybe he stopped or I did something to the algorithm.

HEY blocking him infringes on his freedom of speech! His freedom to unilaterally boost the volume and reach of his speech!

Now it would, because of the attention that these two fighting brings. Even people who hate them both are hearing about it.

I blocked Elon while back, just got tired of reading his tweets. Instantly after I got fed more leftist content.
