"SNIP......

Elon Musk said Friday that he would release details about what he characterized as Twitter’s “suppression” of a controversial story about Hunter Biden’s laptop that was published before the 2020 election, Insider reports.

......SNIP"

Applegrove:

Becoming obvious Musk wants Twitter to be a right wing silo that it was not. Most right wingers are in a silo. They want more people in a silo. Jack Dorsey already addressed this issue. Musk is treating it like a new narrative. It is a round up of right wingers and Independents to coral them in GOP false narratives. And get them away from old twitter which was a juditious place. Yeeha!

1. I can't wait! Oh wait.

2. Story didn't live up to the hype. Also, they keep talking about the First Amendment- that only

applies to governments, not private entities. Even if you assume that Twitter was biased to the left just like Foxnews was biased to the right, so what? Private entities are allowed to have political biases. Twitter has a right-wing bias as of Musk's ownership. Them's the breaks- we can decide whether to read it or not.

4. Right? What about this don't they get?

[emulatorloo]

10. None of them get it. Either they lack reading comprehension, or they're engaging in Willful

Misinterpretation.

[Cha]

18. They don't want to get it. They

want to ruin PJB with it.. that's their plan.

And, musk will Lie his damn muskhead OFF.

3. I've been following. It's a Matt Taibbi thread, nearly unreadable.

38 entries so far plus every insane extrapolation the crazies can throw at it. So far it painfully says Twitter execs had a hard time figuring out how to handle things that they couldn’t figure out the veracity of as they decided what to not post. Some was Hunter Biden stories.

Absolutely nothing new. But the hysteria is strong. As usual.

6. It's the mother of all nothingburgers.

[Cha]

19. Well three ya Go!

[joshcryer]

9. Yeah, it's basic corporate governance stuff.

How to appease everyone while trying to do the right thing. Nevermind the whole NYPost laptop story was blocked for a two whole days and went back to free reign on the nothingburger that was "Hunter's laptop." Reminder that the FBI had the laptop in 2019 and they didn't find anything on it that was criminal. But the "leaked files" that anon and qanon leaked had a lot of very illegal shit in there.

12. I've been following it as well. Taibbi doesn't seem to even know how to use twitter.

Usual gullible MAGA weirdos in the comments, but there are a few sane people pointing out what a nothingburger Taibbi’s ‘reporting’ is.

It is morbidly fascinating like watching a train wreck is morbidly fascinating.

5. I thought he said he would do so by 3 PM today????

[Bev54]

11. You can read it without going on twitter here. Just came across this.

7. Musk's apparently paying has-been "journalist" and sexual harasser Matt Taibbi to do the dirty work.

Taibbi’s thread so far is boring and a big nothingburger. He also doesn’t how to thread tweets. He pops one out one at a time every 30 mins or so.

If you’re curious:

20. Tabbi is a Gaslit RF, AFAIC..

Not surprised to see him doing musk dirty work.

22. My favorite reply to Matt's nothingburger

[Cha]

24. TY.. does that mean

the Con Theorists on the right who watched it unfold warned that there was mothing to it?

Forgive my slowness!

[emulatorloo]

28. brentmessenger is basically saying twitter enforcing its TOS isn't the "scandal" the MAGAs think

it is.

He’s basically making fun of the guy’s rant.

Part of twitter’s terms of service is you can’t post other people’s naked pictures of themselves without their explicit permission.

[Cha]

29. TY.. It's so weird to me. nt

Musk and Taibbi, the dishonest twins.

Nice we have such savvy tech people on the side of reality!

[Javaman]

8. Nothing more than trying get people back

With some”mysterious” bullshit.

I bet this, like all of muskys bullshit is just more of his PT Barnum routine

[emulatorloo]

14. Yeah Elon is paying Taibbi. He apologized to his substack readers that "certain conditions"

don’t permit him to break his dumbass story on Substack.
