Twitter is considering warning users when politicians post misleading tweets

[Utilit99 4,099]

Great. So a couple socialist Newbie types will be in charge of deciding what someone posts is wrong or right. Interesting they picked Sanders, who the dems hate, and a Republican in it's design mockups. Not Schiff, not Pelosi, not Biden, not Waters, not Al Franken, etc. etc. etc.....

Twitter will become FBG.

If they move forward with this, be ready for the onslaught of censored conservative twitter posts.

Leaked design plans reveal that the company is thinking about putting bright red and orange labels on false tweets by politicians and public figures.

Twitter is experimenting with putting bright orange and red labels underneath false statements and misinformation posted by politicians and public figures. According to a new report, the company included tweets from Sen. Bernie Sanders and Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy in its design mockups.

If implemented, the designs would be a significant expansion of the company’s policies for moderating specific kinds of misinformation, such as around anti-vaccination conspiracies and false information about voting — and more recently, deceptively edited videos.

Yeah this will work out well...

When people stop considering that Twitter is news, then we won't have this issue...

Says the guy who loves pointing out that one of Trump's exes said he was good in bed. Lol. Talk about a creepy man crush. I bet you think his farts smell like honeysuckle.

Trump lays the wood. Good for him. I'm proud the president is a mans man. Unlike the sissy boy last guy. Just do us a favor the next time you want to describe in excruciating detail the president dong. /just keep that to yourself

Lays the wood?  He can't even get Melania to sleep in the same bed room as him. And she retracts in disgust every time he tries to hold her hand.  You might want to stick with his policies if you want to worship him.  It's a good thing Melania refuses to get near him, he would have a heart attack if he ever had 20 seconds of physical activity.

Newbie lives his life behind a keyboard. After talking himself up big for hours at a time online, he doesn't even recognize himself when he looks in the mirror and sees a failure of a human being. Online though, he feels like he is smart and a real man. That's why he wants big government so bad. He wants to be supported by them to the full extent cause he can't handle trying to take care of himself.  Poor dude.

This can be Carlos Maza's new job. Maybe get Sarah Jeong and Becca Lewis to help.

This will backfire and become a "scarlet letter" type-thing where people will be proud to get one as a form of protest against global corporations.
