I'm not making the argument that Elon violated the First Amendment here, I'm just calling him a hypocrite for claiming to be a "free speech absolutist" while retaliating against speech he doesn't like.

Of course it doesn't, but it does mean you don't inhibit speech either.

A free speech absolutist can suppress speech all the way up to but just short of removing it completely, without there being an ounce of contradiction?
