The tech billionaire had complained that some Reddit users were advocating violence against his staff.

Reddit has temporarily banned one of its communities - and removed another - after X owner Elon Musk claimed comments made by the site’s users about his employees were breaking the law.

The r/WhitePeopleTwitter subreddit, which typically invites people to share funny posts from X, has been banned for 72 hours after some users posted comments calling for violence against members of the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (Doge).

They were responding to reports which suggested some Doge staff have been granted access to sensitive personal information of millions of Americans.

Musk - who frequently champions his commitment to free speech - shared a post on X containing the comments, and stated: “they have broken the law”.

The subreddit was banned soon afterwards.

        Lol, bro. Nice try, tho. Reread your own comment. It makes no sense. Did you have a stroke? Please explain how I’m gaslighting.

              So your claim about gaslighting was bullshit and you resorted to 5 year old arguing tactics. Great look for you.
