In one of the tweets, the SpaceX founder even acknowledged that “Truth Social exists because Twitter censored free speech".
Notably, ex-US president Donald Trump launched his own social media platform named Truth Social after being banned from Twitter in the wake of Capitol riots in January last year. The microblogging site said that Trump was banned for violating its rules.
Created by Trump’s team in response to Twitter with an aim of providing a platform to the users to engage in “an open, free, and honest worldwide conversation”, Truth Social was launched on Apple Store in February 2022.
