@jesseltaylor You're both dumb and dishonest. Substack doesn't give me anything extra to post. They do, however, pay compensation to a sizable list of establishment liberals, anti-Trump activists, and pro-LGBT voices to write there. — PolitiTweet.org

@Liberalsmugness You're extremely stupid. Peter Thiel doesn't own or control Rumble. He's a small minority investor who just invested last year, 8 years into the company's history. And Rumble's payments are a small portion of my overall income. Thiel is on the board of Facebook. — PolitiTweet.org

The attempt to depict Musk's takeover of Twitter as menacing because it means billionaire control of social media is the funniest and dumbest thing I've heard. That's the scheme under which we *now* live, and most establishment liberals are thrilled because they want censorship. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

It's not just standard US liberals who view online censorship as a noble instrument. Of course they do. The far greater menace: it's the key weapon of information control for real power centers. We saw that with COVID and especially now with this war: https://t.co/OoZp47nKBs — PolitiTweet.org

People pointing out the article hyped by the official DSA account -- @DemSocialists -- on sending military equipment to Ukraine is for now a recommendation in an op-ed promoted by DSA, not yet official policy (hasn't passed through 130 committees), if that makes you feel better. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@thoughtxriot All major social media platforms are now controlled by oligarchs who censor in accordance with establishment liberal values, and the left has been largely acquiescent if not supportive of this status quo. So yes, a billionaire who rejects that censorship scheme is better. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I know Nate's formulation is ironic here but it works because it is now indisputably true: a core, central belief of Western liberals is the nobility and necessity of censorship. It is one of their most important weapons, hence the panic and hysteria: https://t.co/Lr5KplRWnp — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

DSA is now officially working to send weapons and other military equipment to Ukraine. Can't wait to see the Azov guys carrying rifles with the DSA logo on it. https://t.co/osQSAmcpa9 — PolitiTweet.org

The worst, most bloodthirsty and destructive neocons are telling you explicitly: their power to censor the internet, to exclude dissent and maintain information monopolies, is central. How does everyone not understand why restoring free discourse to the internet is so vital??? https://t.co/LbGG2ONVju — PolitiTweet.org

If Musk restored what was heralded as the potential of not only of Twitter but the internet generally - liberating people from centralized state and corporate control and fostering free discourse - it'd be one of the most valuable developments in years. I realize it's a big "if." https://t.co/2rEqkGsSas — PolitiTweet.org

The primary problem is not that tech monopolies have become hives of censorship and speech controls. It's more pernicious and aggressive. They are now key weapons in maintaining closed propaganda systems, always aligned with the US security state: https://t.co/5yMwRQ4v8B — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Like everyone, I have no idea what Elon Musk's intentions are with Twitter. But what I know for sure - having seen it first-hand with Substack, Rumble, Callin - is that few things are more urgent than platforms devoted to free speech and discourse, rejecting messaging control. — PolitiTweet.org

The Pentagon spokesman John Kirby tries to justify how the US can simultaneously claim that it's working with the International Criminal Court on Russia's war crimes while still having the US refuse to subject itself to the ICC's jurisdiction. Credit to @AriMelber for asking: — PolitiTweet.org

@thatalexvance Your use of they/them pronouns and absurd enlargement of the term "queer" to include yourself so you have an identity that counts doesn't entitle you to spout homophobic stereotypes about how gay men are likely to support other gay men in politics as if we have no other metrics. — PolitiTweet.org

@garagemahal2 @SethAGinger @TheBigOldDog Yes, many people on both the left and right get rich in media, which is why it's so stupid of liberals to claim that you have to move to the right in order to get rich, given how many liberals and other anti-Trump opponents have lavishly enriched themselves catering to liberals. — PolitiTweet.org

@CaioAlmendra @effphoto Eu sei. Eu estava apenas dizendo que muitas pessoas acreditam que ele espalhou desinformação, exatamente o que muitos autoritários que acreditam na censura acham que deveria justificar alguém sendo silenciado por bilionários norte-americanos. — PolitiTweet.org

@mb_vinicios1 Pessoas como você queriam que bilionários e corporações norte-americanas controlassem os limites dos debates políticos brasileiros, e agora você tem o sistema que queria. Parabéns. Infelizmente para você, eles vão tomar decisões que você não gosta. — PolitiTweet.org

@FabioDo81206734 Infelizmente, os censores autoritários como vc criaram um quadro em que os bilionários norte-americanos controlam os debates políticos brasileiros. Eles decidiram agora que Pepe Escobar deveria ser silenciado. Esse é o sistema e os governantes que você quer. Agora você tem.👍 — PolitiTweet.org
