Twitter is Evil

Elon Musk tells Joe Rogan: “The degree to which Twitter was simply an arm of the government was not well understood by the public. It was a state publication. Republicans were suppressed at ten times the rate of Democrats.” pic.twitter.com/YttNPZL8Tj

Elon Musk unleashes in fiery Joe Rogan podcast: Tesla owner slams George Soros for ‘eroding the fabric of civilization’, says he bought Twitter because it was being ‘controlled by the far-left’ and warns of the woke ‘mind virus’

Elon Musk was driven to take over Twitter after fearing his transgender daughter had been infected with a “woke mind virus” incubated on the social media platform.

Mr Musk had initially rushed to embrace the news when Jenna, formally known as Xavier, transitioned at age 16.

But when she later cut him out of her life entirely, he knew he had a fight on his hands, a battle which would eventually culminate in the world’s richest man buying Twitter for $44 billion.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. That great champion of free speech Elon Musk is once again expanding censorship policies for X (formerly Twitter), this time for elections.

He and his team have taken to poetry to convince us that a little censorship really isn’t so bad

Elon Musk, the owner of X — once known as Twitter, may she rest in peace — is making Americans an offer that they must refuse. When he purchased the social media platform last year for a whopping $44 billion, he led us to believe he was doing it in order to save free speech, an ideal in regard to which he said was an absolutist. Today, what he is actually offering instead is a censorship regime slightly more friendly to the right than his predecessor. It’s a recipe for disaster.

Many on the right heralded Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter as a major victory in the culture war. But that celebration appears premature. On June 1, Daily Wire CEO Jeremy Boreing wrote that Twitter had scuttled a deal for the conservative multimedia outlet to screen its massively popular documentary “What Is A Woman?” on the social media site.

Who is Linda Yaccarino, Twitter’s ‘superwoman’?

Ad sales executive Linda Yaccarino commands widespread respect in the industry. Will that be enough at Twitter?

Why would someone want to leave a plum post as head of advertising at one of America’s biggest media companies to take a chance leading Twitter, a social media platform with a spotty business record and an infamously mercurial owner?

Marketing veteran Lou Paskalis, who has known Linda Yaccarino for more than two decades, has a theory.

“She’s someone who really likes to be superwoman,” he says, describing her as fierce, shrewd and ambitious. She would jump at the chance, he says, “to step in… and say, ‘I can fix this'”.

I bet she approves of the Bud Light and Target groomer campaigns.

Many shocking reports of Australia’s draconian COVID-19 lockdown measures have come out over the last couple of years but the latest “Twitter Files Extra” show how far those measures went online.

The new supplemental Twitter files centered around the “The Covid Censorship Requests of Australia’s Department of Home Affairs (DHA)” and reportedly helped confirm a report by The Australian. Andrew Lowenthal, author of the Network Affects Substack, tweeted that The Twitter Files team “found 18 DHA emails, collectively requesting 222 tweets be removed.”

Twitter owner Elon Musk’s newly appointed World Economic Forum-tied CEO for the platform recently tried to corner him into committing to reinstalling some of the same Orwellian censorship structures of the old regime. Gee, what a shocker (sarcasm).

Twitter went from great to very shitty to less shitty and now it looks to be headed back to very shitty.

Twitter users are a resilient bunch of customers. They spent the best part of a decade living under the increasingly totalitarian regime of Big Tech and its ‘community guidelines’. Entire systems of language trickery had to be created to navigate the censorial landscape where dissenters were not only assaulted by shadowy algorithms, users were erased. Never was this practice more depraved than Twitter’s removal of Big Pharma victims for the crime of reporting their injuries to the world.

The return of bad Twitter.

Twitter has announced plans to label and limit the visibility of tweets it considers “hate speech.” Self proclaimed “free speech absolutist” Elon Musk’s company claims that the shadowbanning policy supports a “freedom of speech vs. freedom of reach approach.”
