There is only one key word there -Just so I know: Is the problem that twitter "surpressed" information or is the problem that twitter is SUPER POPULAR and well used and surpressed information?
I'm just trying to get a handle on why what twitter did was wrong given that far right chat sites do the exact.same.thing. all the time.There is only one key word there -
It is not accurate that pornographic photos of HB were posted to Twitter? It is not accurate that Biden's team requested that they be removed as a privacy violation?I can honestly tell you that is 1,000% not accurate.
? Typo for "BTW"?BYW the right is applauding the release.
I was responding to this:It is not accurate that pornographic photos of HB were posted to Twitter? It is not accurate that Biden's team requested that they be removed as a privacy violation?
I've read that it was mostly pornographic photos that were taken down. Revenge porn from the right.
Most likely because whatabouts don't fly in the real world.I'm just trying to get a handle on why what twitter did was wrong given that far right chat sites do the exact.same.thing. all the time.
So is that because it's a left leaning site that it's a problem OR because it's such a huge and popular site.
It's not because it is a left leaning site, because it is not and never has been.I'm just trying to get a handle on why what twitter did was wrong given that far right chat sites do the exact.same.thing. all the time.

You don't know what revenge porn is? It is sexually explicit photos posted without the subject's permission.I was responding to this:
Please explain what you meant from "revenge porn from the right", the photo's were not from the Right - they were from the Presidents son who was high on narcotics and having sex with a prostitute, they were from him and the hooker.
So none of that was posted or removed upon request?Additionally,
That is NOT what the Twitter files are exposing as evidence by the images and links provided.
I don't have a clue what revenge porn is - I don't view it, I don't go to places that promote it - I have noting to do with it.You don't know what revenge porn is? It is sexually explicit photos posted without the subject's permission.

Please accept my apologies - I don't think I have the ability to explain it any clearer than I have - I failed with you personally, but there are lots (thanks for the notes), who do actually understand what is happening.So to clarify, what Twitter did wrong is "whatabouts don't fly in the real world"? I don't understand
The problem is that the government colluded with a private business to suppress information from the people. It is a First Amendment violation for the govt. to do that. James Baker's involvement implicates that collusion.Just so I know: Is the problem that twitter "surpressed" information or is the problem that twitter is SUPER POPULAR and well used and surpressed information?
The problem is that the government colluded with
You seem to be under the assumption that when the government went to those private entities, they were simply making friendly suggestions to those entities as to what content should be allowed, and what shouldn't be.Great. As long as they worked together, and the private entity made its choices freely, it's not censorship.
This whole issue boils down to the Right being upset that the “lying press” didn’t fall for the Hunter Biden October Surprise.There is only one key word there -
Now that the suppressed information about it has been revealed to be accurate, it became an even bigger surprise after the election was over.This whole issue boils down to the Right being upset that the “lying press” didn’t fall for the Hunter Biden October Surprise.

Not sure where you get the idea that I agree with a propaganda line like that.What evidence in the Twitter files demonstrates my assumption is unwarranted?
But at least we seem to be in agreement that
"Government discussions with social media companies suggesting that mis- and dis-information about COVID, elections, etc. is harmful to We the People, and social media can and should act to improve the infosphere."
is acceptable.
True enough. You have your own assumption, and you're not interested in whether the evidence supports it or not.Not sure where you get the idea that I agree with a propaganda line like that.
Only, this never happened.It is about the White House having connections with the largest social media company on earth and shaping what is allowed to be posted - having a role in banning thousands of political opponents and even the US's oldest publication - all to protect Joe.
What has been revealed so far had not been very news worthy, has not shown anything untoward or illegal or unethical.Musk in revealing the actual private communications is quickly becoming hated because there are people who do not like truth spoken to power, when their guy is in power.
