Imagine a candidate for Prez calling for the termination of the Constitution and his entire party is OK with it.

We don't have to imagine it anymore.

  i doubt that's what you guys were afraid of.  umm, and yeah like anyone at twitter would have even been listening to anyone from the trump team as 99.99999% of the twitter money went to the d's.  any of "them" found out you donated to r's or heeded trump admin direction, whoa boy!  you could probably start with a nuclear hinder binder and that would be just goofin around

I asked you a question. Could you please answer?

  this is a quote directly from matt taibbi-

 "celebrities and unknowns" alike could be removed "at the behest of a political party," but, "This system wasn't balanced. It was based on contacts. Because Twitter was and is overwhelmingly staffed by people of one political orientation, there were more channels, more ways to complain, open to the left (well, Democrats) than the right."

    the amount and the level of influence by one group compared to the other is, well, like the arse kickin contest with the one legged man.  if you are trying to paint it
with a "they all do it" brush, you are absolutely crazy!!  what was happening at twitter was akin to, aww shoot, what's the term, umm large biness squeezing the little people at the behest of the "big guys", geez that sounds kinda like fascism or something eyna? 

  if the fbi was calling on twitter, facebook, google, et.al. to limit what content was put out, katie bar the door.  #44 weaponized that swamp over 10 years ago

here's my question to you jesmu-who had the most influence over the removal of material?  who's material that was removed was more consequential?  who removed MORE material, trump or the people who control biden? 

i hope i wrote that slow enough for jock breath to understand.  chicken-sh*** out?  sorry i don't have the time to camp out here like many of you

Still didn’t answer.

Anyway it’s a private company under no obligation to be balanced in any manner. Lots of hand-writing over nothing.

What depths has America sunk to when a private company enforces its ToS against those posting misinformation, hate speech, incitements to violence, and porn??

Fortunately the country is saved, as Musk remakes Twitter to be more like Russian Telegraph.

  a private company acted in accordance with the fbi? 

how many people of the opposing party were banned

how many people of the opposing party got the perma ban?

yo sully or whatever your name is today- you got an advertising (private) biness and the fbi knocks on your door and says you can't do any ads for gay black people...is that cool?

No. And that’s a terrible analogy. I would hope you know that…but it’s likely you don’t.

Now can you finally answer the question posed to you? Or are you going to chicken-sh*t out a FOURTH time.

What do you think about twitter restricting what and how Taibbi is allowed to report on in the twitter files, which have largely been inconsequential in terms of content?

All those that posted racist, homophobic, misogynistic, hateful content? Those that spread disinformation and lies?

I assume you are very, very upset with Parler, Gettr, Gab, Turd Social, Pillow Talk, etc. etc. for their content moderation policies removing posts they don't like? No?

As owner of a private company, Eloon can decide what can and can't be posted on his platform. He has made it very clear, posting racist memes himself and amplifying right-wing hate speech. Totally within his rights, just as it was within Twitter's right to ban people who broke their ToS. Musk has become a one-person content moderation board, and he has made it clear that right-wing misinformation and lies are OK, but criticizing or making fun of him will get you banned. Welcome back, The Daily Stormer!

Of course, CEOs don't tend to act like 12-year-old, abrasive, racist a-holes because it is bad for business. At first I thought Musk just didn't have any idea how to successfully run a social media company, but I am now of the opinion he just doesn't care. His farts smell so sweet, they absolutely must be shared with the world! So far it has only cost him ~$90B in net worth--but it's still early!

The people who should be most pissed are Tesla shareholders, because his a-hole behavior is costing them big time. But you'd have to have a BoD that would be willing to put some guardrails around his asinine behavior, and of course those people weren't put on the Board because they were going to practice good governance.

The right's new hero...

(Bloomberg) -- Elon Musk posted tweets including an excerpt of Yoel Roth’s doctoral dissertation Saturday that suggested the former Twitter executive is an advocate for child sexualization — a baseless trope that leaves Roth susceptible to online abuse. 

Far-right and extremist voices have long pushed a false claim that LGBTQ+ people are sexual predators who are “grooming” children to abuse them. In September, the Anti-Defamation League’s Center for Extremism said that “the result of this widespread hateful rhetoric has been a spike in harassment, threats and violence targeting the LGBTQ+ community.”

Musk in 2018 called a British caver who was involved in the rescue of a trapped Thai youth soccer team a “pedo guy.” One of his aides paid $50,000 to hire a private investigator in a futile attempt to back up the assertion. In 2019, Musk beat back a defamation claim from the cave expert in a Los Angeles court in 2019.

Would you please answer the question?

  i've heard some information was removed at request of trump, but not aware of what information that was...tell me what they asked to be removed.  so i'm not going to answer the question until i know what it was he demanded and got removed.  if he had important voices such as obama, fauci, etc removed, that is wrong.  but i'm not aware of what affect he had on twitter at all compared to the biden administration.  if you want to talk about "whataboutisms" let's have at it.  but you guys are trying to distract from the pink tyrannosaurus rex in the room

for those of you who do not see anything wrong here are either dishonest or in such deep partisan denial, i fear for the direction this country could go with you in charge.

if you are trying to equate what trump did with what the fbi is doing at the orders of the biden administration, again, i fear for the direction of this country. 

what twitter, facebook, google, main stream media, et.al. are doing and have done, the damage to this country as a whole is demoralizing and terrifying.

once again, turn this around and tell me with a straight face this is all good

Twitter moderators getting disinformation info from the FBI wasn't "good."  But it is hardly "demoralizing and terrifying" either.

And where did you get that Twitter did anything at the "orders" of the Biden administration?

Can you please provide information from the recent Taibbi release that indicates the Biden administration/white house influenced Twitter?

FYI, the reason you (or anyone) don't know the details behind the Trump administration removing info on Twitter is because Musk won't release the information

I'm just going to assume Biden is ordering the FBI to do stuff, and it's horrible! Even though I don't have any actual information, I just know it is horrible."
