If you’re wondering what the “metaverse” will look like, this could be one version of it. — PolitiTweet.org

We thought we could use the spread of capitalism to get China to be more like us. Instead, they realized they could use mercantilism to get us to be more like them. And it worked: it’s not unthinkable to see something like this in the West at some point. — PolitiTweet.org

@QuinnMacp I wish it weren’t part of the legal and constitutional argument, but unfortunately it is. Under the “strict scrutiny” framework, the question of whether a policy advances a compelling government interest is core to the legal analysis. — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

@CdeVaronaSB @elonmusk @ShannonBream @JesseBWatters That’s false. I’ve spoken extensively about how the West weakening its energy security created the conditions for Putin to invade Ukraine, itself a disastrous outcome. Putin is a totalitarian and poses a meaningful threat, though nowhere near what Xi Jinping represents. — PolitiTweet.org

An ESG paradox: passive index fund managers embraced the efficient markets hypothesis and conceded they weren’t smart enough to pick stocks. Fair enough. But those same firms then became sagacious enough to know how to design an entire social universe through their proxy votes. — PolitiTweet.org

China laughs at American “baizuo” who crumble under the weight of their own insecurities about racism. When Xi Jinping is pressed by the UN about the Uyghurs, he says that Black Lives Matter shows the U.S. is no better. They used the same trick to evade accountability for Covid. — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

Viruses that *don’t* leak from labs are often named after the places where they originated: Marburg, Zika, Japanese encephalitis, West Nile, many more. Same goes for Covid strains from Brazil, India, UK. But if you dare to name the one place that leaked a virus, you’re a “racist” — PolitiTweet.org

Affirmative action doesn’t work. The same groups who need extra “help” getting into college end up needing help to get into medical school. And then into residency. And then into the workforce. If the cycle never ends, that means it’s broken. Time for the Supreme Court to end it. — PolitiTweet.org

If you’re getting a service, and you’re not paying for it, you’re not the client. You’re the product. Exhibit A: state pension funds who invest “for free” with large index fund managers who in turn use their shares to advance political agendas in our economy. It’s a devious game — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

The truth now comes out: the CCP knew it was a lab leak as early as Nov 2019, while we foolishly labeled the lab leak theory as “racist” & censored it on the internet. This NYT reporter’s tweet has not aged well: it exemplifies the dangers of America’s “antiracist” insecurities. https://t.co/PI0t8CI1Nj — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

This should surprise no one, and we would have gotten to the answer sooner if public discussion of this possibility were not suppressed - from hard censorship by U.S. tech giants to soft censorship by academic publications. — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

@cghantaktw Of course I did. You may not be familiar with how vocal I’ve been against BLM-associated political violence. I think it’s important that we do better than our “opponents” or else it’s just a race to the bottom. — PolitiTweet.org

@JeremyRyanSlate Make users pay - and price discriminate based on willingness to pay via different tiers of premium features that Elon is already contemplating. — PolitiTweet.org

@PalmerLuckey I see the point you’re trying to make, but better to change the game than to play it. — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

Formula for success at Twitter: - End viewpoint discrimination - Prove speech is “false” before removing it - If in doubt, give choice back to the user on what they get to see - Charge users $ directly, rather than via corporate advertisers https://t.co/3K8OgPnrsy — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

Rules of the road: - No viewpoint-based discrimination. “Hate speech” as a category goes away. - Twitter has the burden of proof to show that “false speech” is actually false before removing it. - Let users decide what they do & don’t get to see, instead of deciding it centrally — PolitiTweet.org

Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy

Yes, there is some *basic* level of content moderation required on Twitter or else it’d be unusable (spam, porn, etc.). But they’ve used that excuse for years to smuggle in viewpoint discrimination. Hopefully, that ends starting today. https://t.co/C0G5Kiuy2V — PolitiTweet.org
