Musk’s dumped Twitter documents not only confirm the worst expectations of some of us but feature many of the usual suspects for Twitter critics. The documents do not show a clear role or knowledge by former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey. Instead, the censor in chief appears to be Vijaya Gadde, Twitter’s former chief legal officer who has been criticized as a leading anti-free speech figure in social media.
There also is James Baker, the controversial former FBI general counsel involved in the bureau’s Russia collusion investigation. He left the FBI and became Twitter’s deputy general counsel.
Some Twitter executives expressed unease with censoring the story, including former global communications VP Brandon Borrman, who asked, “Can we truthfully claim that this is part of the policy?” Baker jumped in to support censorship and said, “It’s reasonable for us to assume that they may have been [hacked] and that caution is warranted.” Baker thus comes across as someone who sees a Russian in every Rorschach inkblot. There was no evidence the Post’s Hunter Biden material was hacked — none. Yet Baker found a basis for a “reasonable” assumption that Russians or hackers were behind it.
Funny how the FBI seems to always be involved in helping to cover for corrupt Democrats.
Lots more to come for those willing to open their eyes.
It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy

How social media ‘censorship’ became a front line in the culture war
Both political parties had access to tools to flag content to Twitter for review, according to Taibbi, and the company “received and honored” requests from both the Trump White House and the Biden campaign.''
Per WAPO........U have to pull w-a-y back and see the whole off the problem.....IT'S OUR ENTIRE GOVERNMENT.
Oh, come on now HA, Twitter employees have admitted to censoring conservatives and colluding with the government. Twitter WAS nothing more than one of many tools Democrats have used to influence our elections... the media is the main culprit.

Schadenfreude, anyone?
Elon Musk has suspended the accounts of "journalists" that were doxxing his family in real time. they argue that there 1st amendment rights are being violated. As the spokesman for Slo Joe said about Facebook, and it is applicable to Twitter, it is a private company and can do what it wants.
They want his location known so that mostly peaceful protesters can take care of Musk in a mostly peaceful but probably deadly way.

Now Twitter is banning links to some social media sites. This has been common across the internet, but usually they are quiet about it. Example, if you put a link to other social media on Facebook, it will reach only 10% of your normal audience.
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
Musk is also purging child exploitation garbage which was rampant under the old leadership. Oh the horror.

Now Twitter is no longer blocking links to other social media. Trial balloons?
I am finally starting to have issues with Twitter. A few times this weekend the screen went black when I tried to post or re-tweet anything. Hopefully they fix this quickly.
