The Government Colluded with Twitter to Censor

[nsacpi]

I dont mean to be pedantic but could you clarify what you mean by smoke?

[chop2chip]

Eh.. it doesn’t really need clarification to be honest. In the spirit of open intellectual discussion, I’ll let you infer what you need to.

Watching the lecturer playing dodgeball is hilarious.

[nsacpi]

Eh. To me it is a page 8 story. For the sales of those of you who think it is a page 1 story I hope that many enterprising reporters will investigate thoroughly.

[nsacpi]

And I do think in the interests of transparency Taibbi should reveal the terms of his arrangement with Musk.

Thanks for answering my question and fair enough. People have different interpretations of free speech. I disagree but that doesn’t make you wrong nor me right.

As a long time Taibbi reader, I promise you he will likely disclose his agreement with Musk. Reading between the lines, I think it’s pretty obvious what the arrangement was. Musk is known to read Taibbi so he likely reached out to him and gave him access to an archive. Given Taibbi has been reporting on similar stories this year, Im sure he was eager to oblige. Clearly the condition Musk set was the reporting had to be done on Twitter exclusively instead of Substack. Perhaps Taibbi required compensation to agree to those terms, but I don’t think it fundamentally affects the reporting. But it’s a valid concern which is why you would like to see other reporters to corroborate with sourced journalism.

Are there any other news stories - like even 1- where twitter went to these levels to censor the contents?

[sturg33]

What’s more likely?

Serious journalists report on these Twitter files

Or

Serious journalists do a barrage of hit pieces on Taibbi

They are having a meltdown

[cajunrevenge]

You know what, you have convinced me on this Hunter Biden laptop thing. I pledge to never vote for the person who was President at the time who censored the laptop story on social media. Happy?

[Runnin]

What crime did the government commit?

What crime did the government commit?

You can’t outsource censorship of the first amendment.

Of course you guys denied this was ever happening and now when confirmed it’s like of course it’s happening and it’s a good thing. You disgusting marxists. Should get rid of all of you. Worthless human beings.

[cajunrevenge]

So you are accusing the Trump administration of these crimes?

[thethe]

So you are accusing the Trump administration of these crimes?

To compare what the trump admin did you the collusion to prevent the world from knowing that the Biden family is completely sold out to foreign interests is laughable, abhorrent and not worthy of additional discussion. Go and do your thing Cajun. It’s pathetic.

[thethe]

Don’t discount the fact that musk has the goods about global censorship. Specifically brazils election which was also obviously stolen.

[nsacpi]

What crime did the government commit?

And who in the government did this? I guess that question is too hard.

[thethe]

And who in the government did this? I guess that question is too hard.

As if the fact the DNC and 'future incoming Biden regime' isn't enough. Going to move past on a technicality to cover the obvious crimes.

You guys are so ****ing pathetic. When Franco comes all of you will be dealt with appropriately.

But don't you worry - The COVID twitter files won't allow you to hide on this 'technicality'.

[thethe]

It will be interesting to see the BL's excuse for things like this.

[thethe]

The American people were lied to and had their voices taken away.

Putting aside all the obvious cheating Trump wins the POPULAR vote easily if the American people were told the truth.

[nsacpi]

Ah. An answer. The future Biden government did it. Was this before or after the election.

[thethe]

Ah. An answer. The future Biden regime did it. Was this before or after the election.

FIFY

I'm aware of what technicality you are raising - And what I'm telling you is that technicality won't be alive for what will be released.
