They think the own you. Anyone with a brain should be really alarmed by that
Is that why the Twitter algorithm leans right, and always has?

I dunno, but I'd recommend the same guy that launders those thobes and keffiyehs, impeccably clean. (I believe those are the correct terms? Forgive me if I have mislabeled them). How do they keep those things so starchy clean and white?

The government paid millions of dollars of your tax money to Twitter to censor you. Beyond corrupt.

The more info that is released. The worse it gets

OK guys, if the world is coming to an end because of something you don't fully comprehend and no one knows for sure if it's true - then is it wrong for me to point out the guy who was our President and his staff must have had a huge lack of "institutional control"?

Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Forgive me, I'm confused. The government paid Twitter millions of dollars of my tax money to censor me? When did I give the government million of dollars of tax money and when did Twitter censor me?

I thought we all learned in 1st grade that it's okay to be wrong sometimes. Our egos take a hit, but we learn from our mistakes. Some people just cannot accept they were wrong and lie to themselves about it or justify reasons why.

Plus, they have zero reading comprehension. Funny to watch them strut around like their the lead character in The Emperor's New Clothes.

They requested time from Twitter employees, for which they remunerated them. Twitter still had the final say in everything. As the other Twitter Files have shown. Those Twitter Files also clearly established that the discussions about who to censor never were related to getting paid.

What's the big zinger here?

Now, see there was your first mistake. You are supposed to just read the headlines and take that at face value. When it comes to doing the research, that is research enough.

Sounds like exactly what most did on here by reading "safe and effective" in the headlines.
