I'm arguing different points with different people.

As far as I know you haven't mentioned the current threats of investigation that our Democrat controlled government is making.

Yes, the Hunter Biden thing happened before Elon Musk. The threats to investigate him came after he bought Twitter and fired all the government's contacts.

I get the impression that these threats to investigate are some kind of misguided virtue signaling.

I can't think of any right the government has to grill a privately owned company that doesn't seem to be breaking any laws in the US.

That's what I think, too. I don't completely understand why they feel like they need to placate the people they are signalling too, unless they see them as their base.
I'm sorry. Am I to understand that when you have a boner you like to imagine punching the shit out of Tom Bishop? That's disgusting.

Apparently the delay in posting part two of the Twitter Files is because Jim Baker was the one vetting them. He has been fired, and after Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss have time to continue searching through the files the second part will be on Bari Weiss' timeline.

What do you mean? Or do you mean they should have known the former counsel of the FBI was the deputy counsel of Twitter, and was also the one slowing down the whole process?

I think I can sum it up with #8

https://twitter.com/mtaibbi/status/1598827602403160064

This is supposed to be a gotcha.  But these appear to be nude pics of Hunter Biden.  Twitter taking these down is exactly what they're supposed to be doing.  Was he not aware of this ahead of time?  Why wouldn't he mention that these posts qualify as revenge porn?  By just putting it out there and phrasing it like that it implies that this was legitimately scandalous news about Hunter Biden that the powerful were trying to suppress.  But its just dick pics.  Why would he lead with that?

I don't know what to make about the FBI guy.  That's a head scratcher.

I don't think he meant that as a "gotcha" he was showing how easy it was for the Biden team to get tweets handled. The next tweet - "Celebrities and unknowns alike could be removed or reviewed at the behest of a political party" - "Both parties had access to these tools. For instance, in 2020, requests from both the Trump White House and the Biden campaign were received and honored. However:" Then he goes on to tweet about it being unbalanced with the Dems having more contacts at Twitter than the Reps. I don't know why he thinks a graph showing political donations fits in, though.

What I think is crazy is how all the weirdo journalists are trying to make this about Hunter Biden's dick, when the story is about how people in the govt can get social media companies to censor things that are not illegal. Journalists like Ben Collins will skip over the fact that posting a link to the NY Post article was banned, and even DMing links to the article was banned, and then the NY Post acct was banned for two weeks, and he'll post hot takes about Hunter Biden's dick so everyone can pretend to be outraged over Matt Taibbi not mentioning revenge porn, when his point had nothing to do with the content of the handled tweets. (sorry, msm douchebags piss me off)

Elon Musk tweeted that he only just found out Sunday about Jim Baker. https://twitter.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1600262626256486401?s=20&t=RXwF-RdFPW-zHhQhpTRCdQ

Well we'll see what round 2 turns up.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around why such a high profile figure from the FBI is involved at Twitter.  And they just now found out about it?  He wasn't one of the 75% laid off in the first week?

It's weird.  I don't even know what it means.

Fortune: Elon Musk’s tweet confirms he’s added staff beds at Twitter HQ—but insists he’s just helping ‘tired employees’.

It's to filter out the lazy ones from the hard working ones. If you use the bed - you'll be in line for the next redundancy.

One of the funniest tweets I saw recently was someone posting about shrimp not being on the menu at Twitter anymore, and that Musk was starving the employees.

This is the first tweet in the thread https://twitter.com/bariweiss/status/1601008766861815808?s=20&t=0A9PZ_jKd83T71triUqXMw


Edit to add: It's all a bit underwhelming so far. I already knew they shadow banned, and limited engagement on some accts. I suppose I didn't know they denied doing that.

Not sure if shadow bans or a good thing or a bad thing in this context.  Elon actually floated the idea of shadow bans.  I don't know if he's changed his opinion on it though.

Nazi is a very broad term now.
I think it encompasses anyone right of Stalin.

SCG is considered a Nazi by the people calling everyone Nazis.

Do you think she is a Nazi, Crouton?

Or just a safety concern?

As opposed to Elon Musks idea where if you dont pay the stupid $8 a month for the stupid blue tick, your posts will not get promoted/priority and thus essentially 'shadow banned' over those that decided to hop on Elons cock for $8

Free speech (if we are to believe Twitter is the be all/end all of it) now comes at a cost.

I think the sort of big deal about shadow banning is that Jack testified that they weren't doing that. It was definitely not just Nazi shit. They shadow banned Dr whatshisname for tweeting that lockdowns are harmful to kids' education. He's not a conspiracy theorist, he's a professor at Stanford.

Well that's actually an interesting question.  What we've got was just a few example of what was suppressed in one way or another.  We haven't seen something resembling a full accounting.  These are just anecdotes and anecdotes aren't data.
