Ummm the owner of Twitter and one of the many journalists exposing this story say otherwise - this was 100% a conspiracy against conservative accounts

Elon Musk: As Bari Weiss clearly describes, the rules were enforced against the right, but not against the left

If radical right wing activists ran Twitter and colluded with gov't/deep state to shadow ban liberals, Journalists like Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss would both get Pulitzers and Elon Musk would be TIME's person of the year.

Mainstream media and libtards are being exposed for the frauds that they are

Oh, by the way, Jack the former Twitter CEO lied to Congress

Congressman Massie - "CEO’s can’t legally lie to Congress."

Senator Hawley - "Yet how many times did I hear @jack say, including to Congress, that Twitter never targeted conservatives. And how many “reporters” repeated this lie over and over and over and over"

Or another way to say it is that the far right is the conspiracy gas lighting falsity liars. And the other side isn't. Shockingly that's exactly what the fuck has happened.

Why does that surprise anyone that you cannot falsely yell fire in a movie theater and wonder why your not allowed back in the theater or will be on doublesecret probation?

Companies make their rules and if you don't follow them you pay a consequence.



that's exactly what it was. if the laptop had belonged to one of Trump's sons and the NY Times for example had posted a link to a story about it to their site do you think for one second twitter would have suspended the NY Time's twitter account? even if the New York Post had posted a link if it was one of Trump's son's laptop twitter would not have suspended their account like they did. i find it amusing you see the actual proof then find a way to convince yourself what you are reading, directly from internal files from twitter, isn't what it is. blatant censorship with the clear goal to favor one party over another. it's right in the documents.


rules, rules, rules! we don't need no stinkin' rules! bahhaaa. actually we do and this site also has rules. as long as they are evenly enforced it's not bias. this is clear bias by twitter. recall that even twitter internally knew that their so-called "hacked content" reasoning did not apply because no gov agency or law enforcement made that claim to them.



the NY Times, the Atlantic and the WaPo and many others all have completely fabricated "stories" about Trump and posted links on twitter with zero consequences. that is the textbook definition of bias and in particular political bias.



everyone knew this was happening away. the NY Post stood their ground and made it a media story of it and forced twitter to back down, after about 2 weeks. as i recall twitter told the Post they would un-suspend their account if they removed the link to the story but they refused. and twitter only backed down after the media backlash got too much for them. they probably didn't expect that.

Man you just keep embarrassing yourself with these silly takes. Here is what the Very Liberal Glenn Greenwald says - you fit right in with what he describes:

Everyone knows Big Tech censorship helps Dems and silences conservatives. That's why Dems love Big Tech censorship, and conservatives hate it. Not hard. It doesn't matter what docs you show media employees. They'll dismiss it as "nothing burgers" because they're hive-mind Dems.

Imagine if a Verizon executive could decide if you got a phone line based on what she thought of your politics. That’s what Twitter did. And lied about it.

I wouldn't call it amusing. Pathetic may be a better word. But this is what we have today. People on the left who are so biased they can not look at actual evidence and admit what happened. It is a sad statement on them and our country

And now we have confirmation that Twitter committed even more election interference by shadow banning GOP political candidates during their election campaigns

Said the dudes with the "Alternative facts mantra"

I frankly think conservatives are mentally challenged and suffer from living in an alternative universe based in the land of conspiracy.

Do I think there was some limits put on the most egregious offenders claiming falsifies. Yep.

Waiting to weigh in the hunter laptop issue.

The simple fact is that more Republicans and conservatives have constantly spread misinformation and we're finally held to the standard of prove it or shut the fuck up. Now you come out and suggest that we knew we were being limited because we lied so much, and instead of being worried about the lies you're just worried about the limits. Consequences are from behavior

As I said, pathetic may be a better word. But this is what we have today.

It is absolutely amazing to watch people on the left be so biased that they can not look at actual evidence and admit what happened.

The only other explanation if they say they are not biased is they are admitting they are lacking basic intelligence

It is a sad statement on them and our country.

This is how out of control leftist run Twitter was before Elon bought it. I can't even post a screenshot here because the subject may not be permitted, but they have disclosed that the old Twitter management prioritized censorship of non-illegal speech from the right over ******** sexual abuse material at scale. And this is coming from an employee at Twitter high up in the food chain that was there under the previous leftist regime

It just gets worse. Look at all those leftists who had infiltrated Twitter giving the libtards in DC direct access to stifle free speech

* former corrupt FBI general counsel James Baker was Twitter's deputy legal counsel
* former Obama era CIA and FBI operative Jeff Carlton was Head of Twitter's Strategic Response Team
* Fauci's daughter worked for Twitter
* Corrupt John Podesta's niece was on the Twitter "Trust & Safety Council"

I am sure there are more. Twitter was run in the past as a Democrat op

Twitter's top executives lied. They lied to their users, they lied to Congress, and it is now a proven certainty Twitter acted on requests from libtard political actors and the Senile Biden government to suppress speech of those on the right

Twitter has interfered in elections

That's a huge deal

dude you are going down the rabbit hole now, deeply. do you even bother to doubt the laptop really belonged to Hunter Biden now? not even the leftist media does. they've verified a lot of it. wonder what those 2020 election results might have been if they'd made even a modest effort to verify it earlier?


what did they do? circled their wagons and trotted out a bunch of deep state liars like Brennan (who once voted for Communist party of the USA candidates .. and somehow this asshole gets to be director of the CIA???) and my fav asshole liar

Clapper (who blatantly lied to Congress under oath about the intel community spying on US citizens. they were. he lied.) to claim along to about 50 other deep state assholes to "dismiss" the laptop as "Russian Disinformation".


so what have republicans and conservatives said that's misinformation? pretty sure i know the first thing you say is .. but surprise me.

There are a few scenarios for Twitter.

One- self effacement of the brand and its platform. Advertisers are not sure what to make of it, and pull long term deals & some cancel outright. Without money-A slow and long death spiral. The brand implodes.

Two. Elon brings the company into the forefront with some salacious details yet they cannot be validated or proven, and drives more users, without losing advertisers. The brand stays at the current user identity.

Third. Government starts looking at the echoes of the current ownership, and determines that by allowing ANY SPEECH including hate speech and tropes of misinformation to go unchecked, nor corrected - deeming it unsafe for anyone under 21 and a hate speech platform. A loss of 50% of all advertising and loss of functionality - the app is no longer allowed to be distributed in the app or play store.

Forth - Elon who is the CEO of three other companies, is forced by shareholders and board members that he is not leading any of them and must choose to stay at Twitter or hand the leadership another person. TSLA shareholders are not happy with the free fall of that stock, and are suggesting that Musk is too thin across these vastly different companies. As the intent is purchase of Twitter was to put it in the direct news cycle, his latest release of details as a ruse to those who claim to be disenfranchised; he steps away after the next few months in an attempt to stabilize the company and his investment - appointing a new CEO to install new safeguards and controls. And the stock goes up- everyone is happy! And the GOP can say gotcha, and are onto new conspiracies.

So Twitter, a right wing conspiracy website, is spouting right wing conspiracies?
Shocking.

The first think Musk did after buying Twitter was share a conspiracy story about Nancy Pelosi’s husband.

It just proves how far gone someone has to be to think that Twitter is a "right wing conspiracy website"

Hell it's not like the owner of Twitter confirmed that:

Elon Musk - "there is no question that Twitter operated as a Democratic Party activist machine"

Or that over the last week, and continuing, multiple journalists have reported on and provided evidence of the former Twitter management censoring the Hunter Biden story, colluding with the Senile Biden campaign, working with the FBI and other government agencies to illegally censor speech, frequently banning conservative accounts and yes, acting as a Democrat Party activist machine

I mean how ill informed does one have to be to just ignore all the evidence and make the bullshit claim that Twitter is a "right wing conspiracy website"?
