Elon Musk paid $44 billion to discover what we already knew: content moderation is messy and involves whole teams of people with a range of viewpoints trying to appease different political factions.

He then gave “leaks” to a Substack Man to present it as a blockbuster.

NBC making excuses after Elon Musk exposes Twitter's past corruption.

Notice how NBC ALWAYS side of abusers, from Amber Heard to Twitter to Taylor Lorenz and more?

This dude has been melting down since Elon released the info.

NBC fake news merchant smearing a real journalist as "Substack Man" out of pure envy. Sickening how entitled these legacy media types are. Absolutely loathsome. The fact that Elon gave the scoop to a truly independent journalist is absolutely groundbreaking. Huge paradigm shift.

@Theo_TJ_Jordan

I love that Ben calls Taibbi "a Substack Man" here in an attempt to demean and devalue him. As if sucking the teat of NBC and being a corporate behemoth bitch is some superior position on the totem pole. Those days are done, bud. You can fantasize about having Matt's credibility.

He needs to buy CKE Restaurants and then put up a Twitter poll which decides between Carl's Jr. and Hardee's. I'm sorry I can't let it go.

We went from there’s no censorship to content moderation is difficult. Lol.

"A whole team of people," Ben, taking direction from democrat operatives, while circumventing Jack Dorsey. And ope, looks like Ben wants to make bank with a substack as successfully as has Taibbi. Petty af, that Ben.

@DoctorTurtleboy

This is the kind of person we used to self regulate by shoving in lockers and making fun of them until they cried. It usually corrected their behavior.

@hippojuicefilm

The reactions to this are amazing... "Content moderation is messy" is not saying "the first amendment was flexible" and the government requesting the silencing of people.

Downplay it all you want Ben...this was at best immoral at worst unconstitutional.

In reply to @oneunderscore__

Do you also suppress news at the behest of the DNC?

Magical Trevor (Curator of Meme TV)

@MagaMemeWizard

NBC "Urinalist" looks down his nose at real, honest, hard working journalists because @elonmusk decided to give the story of the decade to someone with integrity instead of someone who licks the boot of corporate media, calling him a "substack guy"

@dantypo

What you call “messy” and try to sell as “a range of viewpoints”, honest people would call very specific propaganda by a single political ideology.

Nice obfuscation tho.

There were no “different political factions” colluding with #Twitter to suppress free speech rights & engage in #ElectionInterference

ONLY ONE PARTY BENEFITTED

It was all done in conjunction with requests by the #DNC & #FBI made in behalf of #Democrat party only!

This is the most boring reveal of all time.

It's highly incriminating... I had no idea the DNC was working directly with Twitter to censor their political opponents. As Ro Khanna said, it's a clear violation of the First Amendment... hopefully the new House will subpoena all of those bad actors.

Corporate media wokesters like Ben here are split between wanting to downplay the story and hateful that it went to someone other than them

That's one way to put it. Or you could just say that Twitter interfered with the 2020 election.

Lol Ben’s meltdown is gonna be lit.

you’re doing comms for the democrats at this point ben

In reply to @oneunderscore__

Content moderation shouldn’t involve political factions whatsoever. Allowing it is where the first amendment comes in. They are by definition the government and should not be interfering in how private companies moderate the speech on their platform.

@PaulWinkelman10

The shame about it is that someone had to pay $44 billion to prove what was already known. Although, I do not think anyone thought the Biden Crime Family had a direct line of com to Twitter.

Teams? He fired most the company bruh. You mean what WE THE PEOPLE already knew. That the USgov was laundering censorship thru a private company, to get a virtually non-existent "CAMPAIGN" to stand against the will of THE PEOPLE. Trivialize, as you may, you look sus af.

@AssyroKang

add in the part where the content moderation request coming from the government crosses into illegal territory and you knew about it

remember all that “it’s a private company not the government they can do what they want” gaslighting you guys did? i remember

@NunyaBizniss16

Yes, we already "knew" and we suspected the FBI/DOJ was involved in sensoring and targeting, but they denied it. So now we REALLY KNOW.And we know that Biden and the FBI explicitly violated ppls 1st Amendment rights.Try to minimize this scandal all you like, clown, it won't work

Feel free to reveal all the Tweets from legitimate news sources suppressed because they damaged GOP prospects in the 2020 race.

What we've discovered is that the government is creating a campaign to continue censoring voices that criticize establishment narratives. "He then gave “leaks” to a 'Substack Man to present it as a blockbuster.' twitter.com/elonmusk/statu…" Who are you really working for, Ben? LOL.

In reply to @oneunderscore__

Substack Man? I thought he gave the material to Area Russian Asset.

Ben …Yes , true but you are dealing with Fairy Tales . Yes , Musk has ALL the data on who , what , why was de platformed, terminated , suspended ( As I was ) . A guy like Musk walks s fine line .. maybe depending on allocation of $$ that wound be an interesting undertaking !

In reply to @oneunderscore__

You made the moderation sound as if it was neutral with that tweet. It wasn’t. Not even close. They were trying to appease ONE political faction: their own/Democrats/radical left. All the same thing.

the gist so far seems to be "here are emails of people making requests about tweets you can't see" and "twitter employees donated to political campaigns" ok. lots of people gave $10 to trump or bernie. famously they had dinner and exchanged emails with everyone who did
