Nick Fuentes, a far-right commentator, is set to return to X.Elon Musk bought X in 2022, promoting free speech absolutism. The Anti-Defamation League describes Fuentes as a white supremacist , anti-semite , and 2020 election-denier "who seeks to forge a white nationalist alternative to the mainstream GOP." When Elon Musk bought X for $44 billion in October 2022, he set out to defend free speech absolutism on the platform. Nick Fuentes' flirting with hate-speech has meant he has had a rocky relationship with X and Twitter before it. Business Insider's Katherine Tangalakis-Lippert reported that despite Musk identifying as a "free speech absolutist," the same embrace of free speech does not extend to his critics.
