Taibbi is a soft Putin apologist

What Elon Musk’s Twitter files have revealed so far is that content moderation at Twitter WAS being decided by a team of people with differing viewpoints.

Now it’s being decided by the richest man on Earth with an axe to grind against one political party — a true scandal. https://twitter.com/oneunderscore__/...30730963845123

I'll point out that Apple pulling it's advertising is an example of free speech on their part. Twitter can sue Apple if they don't like it.

What did the President know and when did he know it? Musk releases Hunter Biden laptop files that reveal Twitter execs replied 'handled' to requests from 'Biden team' and DNC to delete tweets just ten days after scandal broke

From the posted Twitter thread by Matt Taibbi, quote ....

All conveyed by a questionable former expat in Russia. It's not government malfeasance to ask a company to follow its own TOS nothing in the release itself are news, but the release in context shows how Elon is moving Twitter to conservative cause célèbre. It is frustrating that so few people seem to not know the difference between TOS and the First Amendment. Including the owner of Twitter, apparently. This whole episode is another very good explanation for why there are no ads on Twitter anymore it is noteworthy that a billionaire wasted $44 billion buying a social media platform yet has no functional grasp of how the First Amendment works, knows nothing about moderation, knows nothing (apparently) of privacy issues, and fired everyone who worked there who does. It's what happens when journalists are ego-driven to drop the 'next big story', even when one doesn't exist.

All old news nothing to see here Twitter’s then-CEO, Jack Dorsey, said he regretted the platform’s decision to censor the story. Censoring a paper is serious, but so is making sure stolen content weaponized by both domestic and foreign political operatives doesn't impact an election. Taibbi and Musk are making a conspiracy out of a situation where twitter staff were trying their best and at worst fumbled.

Will these revelations shake the political landscape in the United States?

The Twittergate files:
Hunter Biden got some hookers, smoked some crack, snorted some cocaine, probably took meth too. These are things right-wingers do all the time - so we're confused as to why they're so mad about it. Are they mad they weren't invited to the party? Is that what triggered the right wing? Breaking: Hunter Biden's Triggers Right Wing Incel Movement to Question their Own Manhood & Womanhood. Maybe that's why there are so many right-wingers trying to get the pictures

Nah only the one with small hands and his cronies have penis envy that's all folks and merikan biggly purism

Could it be there's isn't a political scandal which some want it to be and that's why the media is silent

Could very well be a scandal then one may ask why this silence ?

This is old news the media is silent because there is nothing to report on what we already know

That is pure bull crap and the files released prove that it is. For the year 2020 Twitter staff political donations were: for Republicans .. $14,140.00. For Democrats .. $909,430.00. Seems like the Twitter workforce was overwhelmly to the left. Now tell me that didn't effect what these people were up to. Oh they were doing their best. Question is what were they trying to accomplish? It is now painfully obvious that the goal was to suppress a story that would have made candidate Biden look bad. What makes it all so bad is that the story was true and the laptop contents were not stolen or "Russian Disinformation". In other words it was a legitimate story and it was suppressed for political reasons.
