notice how whenever the liberals are facing an indefensible story, they IMMEDIATELY go overboard with personal attacks and guilt trips to try to destroy the story.  happening right now in this thread.

They are in unison bashing Taibbi for reporting.  You would think they would be bashing him for bad reporting, not truthful reporting 

[Hardcore troubadour 15,472]

HT: The government was involved in censorship

Libtards: Trump was the president! 
 

At least we can dispense with the notion that the government wasn't involved, as spouted earlier in this thread.  HT and Reality were right. Now the question is on behalf of who. We know that answer.

And I quote myself....

Also, it seems like from the thread that Taibbi posted that the reason the pictures were taken down was the nudity involved- which would be against Twitter standards. Also, it seems like the requests from the Biden team came in October of 2020- which he would've still been a private citizen at that point and not an elected government official. So in reality this is an issue between two private parties. That's not a crime. It's shady, it's underhanded, but not a crime nor a free speech violation. And honestly- if you want to open that can of worms then you have to acknowledge that the Trump White House requested things be removed while in power. That's problematic. Again- I don't know the criminality of it, but it's shady.

But I guess we got transparency of what some Twitter higher ups did....good I suppose. Now I guess we can just burn Twitter to the ground. That's be good too. 

 

Also,

Quote

 

1.) Some Twitter higherups removed stuff from the Hunter laptop story (mainly d!ck pics posted without his consent)

2.) The Biden team asked for things to be removed, so did the Trump team. But it does seem from the perhaps one-sided evidence the Democrats did it more. 

3.) Dorsey had no idea what was happened (allegedly) and said he would've done things differently could he go back.

 

I was pretty clear in saying that I think it is a problem but not to the level that others do...at least not with what we have evidence wise right now.

Not sure what else you want

See I can't be a liberal- I didn't bash Taibbi's reporting.

[Hardcore troubadour 15,472]

Leftist pundits are in unison bashing Taibbi for reporting. Not bad reporting, just reporting on what Musk released 

[Sean Mooney 1,984]

Taibbi was chosen to give the news specifically I'm sure because the right considers him too left and the left considers him to right.

Haha in your zeal to prove that twitter allows porn you quickly threw up your most used link.

No wonder you lie about your wife all the time, you've outed yourself as a cok smoker.  Damn son, it's ok and all that you like to watch men suck cok and that you like to suck cok, but that's a hell of a way to come out of the closet.

Life loser indeed...I'm guessing you're the one who get's phuked by the other dude?

So we've learned that Biden and Trump had inroads to twitter.  We learned that Trump's FBI met with twitter.  And we learned that Horsesass is a pole smoker.

Out of those three, Horesesass outing himself as GAY is the least surprising tbh. 

[Hardcore troubadour 15,472]

Imagine a cop was accused of a crime and on behalf of the police union a newspaper didn’t print a story that would make the cop look bad, even though it was true.  Libtards would be outraged. And right. Pretty much what happened here. 

[Hardcore troubadour 15,472]

Yeah, Trump sent the FBI to Twitter and Facebook and whoever else to suppress the laptop story. That’s what they are asking you to believe.  Can’t make it up.

One of the things clear in the Taibbi thread is the Trump White House asked Twitter to take down stories. Do you deny that? Do you believe the FBI- in the employ of Trump at the time- were openly looking to undercut him?

I did say it was ok for him to be gay and the life loser comment was about getting bottomed out on the regular.

But point taken and I retract my life loser because he's like's coks up his butt statement.

Yep, everything was totally equal. So explain why, if Trump had inroads to twitter, he got permabanned from the platform.

At this point it's pretty obvious that a lot of the higher ups in the FBI had it out for Trump. They even devised an "insurance plan" to try to prevent him from being elected.

No evidence that anyone went to twitter to suppress the laptop story, as Taibbi admits. Stop making sh1t up please.

I know. An FBI agent named Elvis Chan just testified this week that he organized the meetings between the FBI and Facebook and Twitter in the lead up to the 2020 election and they keep trying to say there was no government involvement in the censorship or that Trump sent them. This is the level of idiocy from our resident morons.

So Trump's FBI met with Facebook and Twitter to what, undermine Trump?  Oh wait, you cultist think that your orange master knows all and it's just that OTHER conservatives in the DEEP STATE were working against him.  Even though the FBI is like 80% conservative.

When you all hold Trump responsible for being the moronic POS he is, then maybe we can finally be rid of him.  But nope, y'all just play into his "they're out to get me" and "they're out to get me too" bullchit excuses.

You two are wrong because you’re specifically stating that the government interfered with the laptop story.  Taibbi admits he doesn’t have evidence that actually happened.

Wil cultist ever hold Trump accountable for anything?  His organization had backchannels to Twitter.  HIS FBI met with Twitter.

If the company repeatedly, many times over many years, fullfills the requests without being able to justify them against their own TOS there is only one conclusion.  Dont be an idiot.  

Still waiting on evidence that what was requested to be removed was not against the TOS.  As mentioned, Alex Berenson probably has the best argument that I’ve seen.

I agree to a point. 

I think the author did execute the write up with the right intentions and I think the assertions have merit. The first Amendment in fact exists to protect us from the government, not from a business like twitter, so the first amendment approach does not really work the way that some folks are trying to apply it. 

That being said, I think there is an element of disingenuousness at play here.

I think Twitter as an entity has tilted hard left within the political realm, and like too many companies has embraced politicization of its corporate culture.  The muting of conservative voices and allowance for liberal ones is enough for me to expect more, not from the government, but from the company. 

Did Twitter do the Democrats bidding? The results suggest yes, but i doubt they were getting specific direction, it was simply alot of liberals ensuring liberal voices and ideas held dominance over others.  Zuckerberg admitted to hearing from the FBI, then clamed up about it (smartly I might add), but that was just more liberal activists (this time within the FBI) ensuring protections through their liberal comrades within Facebook.

When the government setup that agency of truth nonsense I was really taken aback, and while they appeared to end it, they are in reality just trying to work it by others means, and that sh!t needs to stop. 

I think hateful rhetoric should be dealt with by Twitter and the others, regardless of the source.  And the fringe of both political groups can be rather hateful. But disagreeing is not hateful
