@Jerry__Grey @ConspiracyBan Where’s the evidence? The government showing twitter content that broke their own TOS is not the government forcing twitter to ban or block content. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
@ConspiracyBan Of which there is no evidence. show me where the government forced Twitter to ban anyone. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
@Forcht17 I know precisely how it works. He has every right to block me like Twitter does. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
@andymke Agreed. But Twitter had the Dante same protections as a private entity. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
@BillNKitches You mean kind of like how Twitter didn’t want to hear from Nazis and racists? — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
@TheRealGav_ Yeah just bringing up the fact that the people who think a private company should allow everyone to post are the same ones blocking people as private citizens. Neither are illegal. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
@ConspiracyBan Neither is Twitter. — PolitiTweet.org

@itsJeffTiedrich @Magooch3 Instead he doubled down on conspiracy theories. — PolitiTweet.org

@Joey_Bagadohnut We will try to respond more, but please note that our average tweet gets hundreds of replies, sometimes thousands. — PolitiTweet.org

@Locksmith134 Brothers who love each other? — PolitiTweet.org

... and the justifications that we are willing to make for our own ideological ‘greater good.’ — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
At the end of the day, we’d like to think that we all share the same basic moral compasses.However, those compasses are all slightly different from one another based on the lines we draw, the ideologies we have been exposed to, the real-life experiences that have influenced us... — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
Every tweet we make will have the intentions of countering misinformation, fighting hate and inequality or sharing knowledge regardless of how we think our followers will respond. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
As we move forward on Twitter, we cannot promise you that some of our tweets won't seem divisive to a handful of users, but what we can promise is that every tweet we make will come from our hearts. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
We've learned quite a lot about how to better interact with those who have views counter to out own, and most importantly we now understand what some of the solutions to the social media chaos we see today, may be. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
Over the last 3-and-a-half-years, we've been somewhat influential in the rise of decentralized social media. We rose in prominence on https://t.co/ksz9muYUno, which is a Web3-based social platform. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
This makes social media an impediment to actual dialogue and discourse around a variety of topics. It also further pushes us into echo chambers which enhance confirmation bias, and ultimately divides us. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
If, however, a user decides to post something that perhaps is much more aligned with their own morals, but counter to the views of the average person following them, they will lose followers and engagement, and the cycle reverses itself. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
The more outlandish and more divisive a tweet is, the more engagement it gets and the higher the algorithms boost that post. When a post gets boosted, a user gains even more followers and the cycle continues. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
Many users get stuck into trying to please their followers rather than trying to stick to their own personal moral objectives. We tried not to get sucked into that moral chaos, but looking back we’d argue that sometimes it happened unintentionally. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
Some hated it, some valued it, some just thought we were a bunch of "grifters" despite never monetizing our followers like many on Twitter have. What we learned from our years as “Trump reply-guys” is that social media echo-chambers are real. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
In the past, we were known, sometimes infamously, as "Trump reply-guys". Our intentions were always to fact-check the former president, stick up for those he commonly attacked and present clear and concise arguments against policies we disagreed with. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
Our ban wasn't at all related to "botting" and we have the communications with Twitter's legal team to prove this. Besides, do you really think @elonmusk would let us back on if we were “bot-farming?” — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
While we were gone, there was a lot of misinformation spread about us that we were unable to really punch back at until now. There will be a time and place where we will do this in more detail. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
So now that the two of us are back on Twitter, we'd like to bring up a few VERY IMPORTANT lessons we've learned since being banned. (Please read the entire thread before responding). — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
@MuellerSheWrote Congrats! Well deserved. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
@mavisr That's to be debated. He has certainly pushed the boundaries with EV tech and if it wasn't for him the EV space would not be where it is today, regardless of whether he invented the tech or not. He has a crazy work ethic, if used for good could be amazing for society in general — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein
I'd rather listen to Dr. Fauci, the Scientists, virologists & so-called Branch Covidians than the Chief Twat who has no medical education. I respect Elon's work in EV tech and space travel, like he should respect those who have spent their lives studying science and viruses. — PolitiTweet.org
