Free speech advocate and owner of Twitter Elon Musk promoted the “What Is A Woman?” documentary on his platform just hours after the company abandoned a deal to stream the film for free on Thursday.

On June 1, exactly one year after the release of Matt Walsh’s groundbreaking documentary exposing the evil of gender ideology, Daily Wire co-CEO and co-founder Jeremy Boreing announced that Twitter had backed out of a deal to stream and promote the film to the public due to certain scenes containing so-called “misgendering.”

“What Is A Woman?” was labeled as “hateful” and became restricted content on the platform, which has boasted a commitment to free speech since Musk bought it in 2022.

Twitter executives hid the film from the feeds of Daily Wire followers and removed the ability to simply re-tweet posts in which the movie was embedded. Musk responded to the situation amid the chaos, posting that the move to suppress “What Is A Woman?” was “a mistake.” Later, all restrictions were lifted, and the documentary was allowed to be shared freely on the platform.

But Musk did not only enable the film to be restored to Twitter. Instead, he went a step further by actively promoting the movie on his Twitter profile, an act that Catholic podcast host and documentary creator Matt Walsh celebrated as “a huge win.”
