What Garland Nixon said was clearly anti-establishment. How was it unsafe?

Who made that talking point? Serious question.
Musk is hoping to make money by offering a platform that has freer speech than the others. And so far, Twitter use is up. But companies who prefer the establishment narrative don't want to support them.
I think you've made this point indirectly by saying Twitter was actively working to block free speech. Nope, they were just running a business. And Musk will do almost all of the same things if he wants to actually come even close to profitable. He's not going to reinvent what allows an advertiser to profit and maintain brand image. He's not going to rewrite laws. This is not about free speech in any way and never has been. It's always been business and doing what it takes to keep the lights on.
So far he's imposed extra fees to the consumer, yay? And lost advertising revenue that he has not even come close to replacing. He is lined up to lose more money in legal/regulatory fees and maybe even lose some of the hard earned pipelines for this platform. He needs something drastic to save the company as it appears right now. Maybe this whole yelling at apple thing will work out, but I doubt it.
Twitter needs apples user base. Apple does not need twitter.

I don't fucking know, you're the one that said it. Half the time I don't know what the fuck you are talking about because it makes so little sense in regards to the thread. You're almost as good at non sequiturs as sunshine was.

I dunno, publicly tweeting another person's "schedule" like that really sounds like he's impersonating their scheduler.
And we all know how dangerous such an impersonation can be.
In other news, a security researcher found that Twitter leaked 5.6m user's data. He was promptly banned from twitter after tweeting this fact.

A lot of accounts that tweeted that story have been banned. It’s entirely obvious that Elons idea of free speech ends at damaging criticism of his behavior or businesses.
It was the last thing antifascist chad loder tweeted before being banned a week ago
Chad Loder has been a target of the proud boys and other attendees on January 6 after he starting posting evidence that got a bunch of attendees arrested. Proud boy sympathizer Andy Ngo had a public conversation with musk complaining about loder hours before he got banned.

Then there’s this the day before the ban

Free speech warrior Elon Musk. I can’t believe people fell for it. Falcon will never be able to admit he was wrong, which adds yet another knot in his pretzel-like ideology

But let's be clear here. Elon Musk is perfectly within his rights to ban anyone who criticizes Twitter or himself. After all, it can't be good for business, and Twitter should not be forced to publish content that is harmful to the platform.

Musk has impulse-control issues as well as a big dunning-kruger issue. There's is little to no chance that he gave much thought to what a censorship-free twitter would actually look like.

I'll criticize the nature of corporate social media, but my proposed solution will always be a decentralized internet.
I'm just here getting my kicks watching the Cirque du Soleil of opposition to old Twitter's 'censorship' and defense of Elon Twitter's 'free speech'. If I understand koods post, apparently Falcon91Wolvrn03 has been arguing that this Garland Nixon was banned by old Twitter for bad reasons, when he was actually banned by Elon Twitter. That's a feat.

Twitter is a house. If there's enough people in it, it becomes a party. That party is as cool or lame as the people at the party.
Let's face it... skinheads know how to party.

I'll admit I was wrong if Garland Nixon doesn't get reinstated after the amnesty.

I never said he was banned by old Twitter, but I seriously doubt Elon Musk reads all 500 million tweets a day, and it was likely someone from the old school Twitter that banned him.
As I just said, if they don't reinstate Garland after the amnesty, I'll admit I was wrong.
