Propaganda?
That’s quite a good description of your usual Leftist biased thread making skills.

Gotta keep the denials up and the blinders on the low info cult members.

Once again, Taibbi overstated the amount of tweets that were reported for possible action by a factor of 7,000. Of the less than 3,000 tweets that were reported, less than 1% were reported by the government, and 16% were reported by CIS.

The tweets that were primarily reported were tweets engaged in outright illegal activity (impersonating public officials, phishing schemes, etc.) and then it was still Twitter's decision to take action.

And action doesn't even mean the tweet was removed. Twitter may have just flagged it for monitoring.

How insidious.


As the masks slips....


So youre pro censorship too. How quaint.

Reporting content that violates the law is censorship?

I'm not the one that keeps trusting journalists that openly admit they're misleading you.

Nothing of the sort, everyone knows it happened.
It happened to me back in 2016, I was banned from Twitter for calling out that mind numbing Liberal idiot Louise Mensch when she was pushing the fake Steele Dossier.
Not that I am an important Conservative, far from it but it still happened.

Stop denying that it happened.

L.ao are u serious?

A few spelling mistakes and you believe the Twitter files are dismantled???? Mistakes Matt acknowledged and said he needed to fix but Hassan REFUSED to let him talk?

This is why there can be no debate or common ground w leftists anymore

They are completely devoid of ANY TRUTH or objectivity. They don't care about ANYTHING that disrupts their narrative

I maintain this is why we are looking at a national divorce or worse


Just quoting for relevance.


Whoever invents the head-from-ass puller is gonna make a fortune.

From my experience, everyone that claims they were banned for no reason, they were usually banned for a very good and obvious reason.

I agree.
The reason was I called a Liberal a liar and that mutt faced idiot obviously complained.
Just like it happened to all the other Conservatives.

You can believe what you want but shows like these are ratings-driven, all of them.

FWIW they both need the hits and clicks it's how they make thier money.

I just read Matt's Twitter in regard to this, he pretty much answers your accusations clearly.

So you admit the government did censor tweets... And any censoring of tweets by the government is a violation of the constitution...correct? Next you admit they also used a nonprofit which was directly funded by tax dollars through government agencies to also censor tweets. I don't understand what your argument is...its pretty cut and dry that any censoring by the government is against the law...and it is pretty...insidious...that they would try to obfuscate their involvement by using a nonprofit as a cut out. Am I missing something here?

Ya lost me on the whole constitution part.
You do know we are talking about social media forum correct?
The 1st and 14th doesn't apply to them after one agrees to the T&C.
Just like ATS.
How is this that hard to understand?

I've seen this clown on the Bill Maher show more than once. He's such a buffoon; a true paragon of ignorance. He got completely owned in that interview. Gotta give him props for having the testicular fortitude to sit through the complete dismantling of his Twitter Files and having enough honor to put his stupidity on full display.


Indeed. Most people just create a fictional username and write snarky rhetoric on a message board.

You're being intentionally obtuse. You know it and we know it.

It applies to the government...which directly asked along with using a cutout to ask for posts to be censored. That's not hard to understand...unless you are purposely trying not to.
