@jairofarley @cynaramenezes Então, você precisa torcer para que todo esse poder de censura extremo que a esquerda brasileira colocou nas mãos dos bilionários americanos da tecnologia e Alexandre de Moraes, nomeado por Temer e ex-advogado de Eduardo Cunha, não seja usado um dia contra vcs. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @aaronjmate: A rare dose of honesty about how Russiagate was the Democrats' form of "election denialism": — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Is someone stopping @MollyJongFast from using Twitter to circulate her extremely important and groundbreaking reporting and commentary? I have not seen Twitter impeding her vital work, so what is her grievance? That people who see the world differently might also get to be heard? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@cynaramenezes É crime no Brasil, não nos EUA e em muitos outros. Mas, novamente, não to opinando aqui se essa censura é boa (eu pessoalmente acredito que julgamentos por crimes devem acontecer *antes* que alguém seja punido). Estou só relatando para uma audiência dos EUA que isso aconteceu. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@cynaramenezes Não é crime em muitos países questionar os resultados das eleições ou até mesmo defender a violência, inclusive nos EUA e em outros. Mas não opinei sobre se de Moraes deveria poder censurar membros do Congresso. Acabei de explicar o que aconteceu, acrescentou a reportagem do NYT. — PolitiTweet.org

2019: "Twitter banned the account @AOCPress, labeled as a 'parody,' on Monday, apparently because it sounded too much like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., while mocking her." https://t.co/55cK9NBkbP — PolitiTweet.org

@PerpetualUse @Smutteh I don't regard people as "nobodies" unworthy of engagement or response because their follower counts aren't as high as you think they need to be or they aren't famous journalists. I've always engaged with readers from the time I started writing. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@EOrtzi This is true. That's my point. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

And yes, there are differences between how Brazil and the US vote. That's the point. Many countries besides Brazil count all votes on Election Day just fine. There is no reason why the richest country on earth can't except lack of will (or a desire to have it linger for weeks). — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I'd like to note once again that Brazil -- with a population of similar size to the US (especially with mandatory voting and a voting age of 16) -- counted all votes nationwide in every race within 3 hours after the polls closed. Every race was decided that night. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@EOrtzi But the loudest opponents of this sort of cancellation are usually coming from the right. Do you believe there are many prominent right-wing figures defending Irving? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@TheKoreyT That gives the question I asked even more applicability. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@dheerajchand No, I've constantly described what neoconservatives are doing as a migration back to the Democratic Party where they began. https://t.co/ntvodPRKqL — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RisksRewards The left has the same amount of certainty that the people who are fired from their jobs and banned from the internet have expressed racist, misogynistic, Islamophobic, or anti-LGBT bigotry as you have that Irving expressed anti-Semitism. Hard not to observe the disparities. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

How does the right's critique of "cancel culture" apply to what is happening to Kyrie Irving? I have no doubt many on the right are offended by things he's said, but the same is true of how the left feels about those accused racism/misogyny/ LGBTphobia. https://t.co/O92QJPM4jT — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

By the way, I'm not blaming Kristol here. If I were Bill Kristol and embraced the set of beliefs and values he has spent his whole career advancing, I would also judge that the Democratic Party is the place most hospitable and receptive to my agenda. What he's doing is rational. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Do Democrats ever ask themselves why Bill Kristol -- plausibly the single most bloodthirsty warmonger and deceitful propagandist of the last three decades -- now finds so much alignment with their party that he produces cute ads urging their empowerment? https://t.co/MlOhXzhXHf — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The Moral Conscience of American liberalism is David Frum, but Bill Kristol is their prophet. Look how viral this tweet is and who is spreading it: — PolitiTweet.org

@thamiracb @viniciusduarte O relatório que fiz é completamente preciso. Acabei de expor fatos. Ninguém está alegando que esses fatos estão errados. Você está ciente de que tb me oponho a pessoas que querem censurar e silenciar seus adversários mas isso não torna o relatório que publiquei falso ou enganoso. — PolitiTweet.org

@frankstersays I was born into a rich and famous family? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

There appear now to be some changes to Twitter's "misinformation" rules, though it's unclear what this means since @yoyoel insists they're still moderating it. It's likely due to Musk's statement that this new council will determine new moderation rules. https://t.co/TYm3jE89Om — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@thamiracb @viniciusduarte Sim, sempre disse que todos os jornalistas – por serem humanos – são subjetivos. A diferença está entre aqueles que expressam suas opiniões explicitamente mas tentam fazer reportagens precisas (eu) e aqueles que as escondem e fingem que não são moldadas por suas opiniões (Globo). — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@StevenJCBuckley Yes, because both the rule and practice of Twitter -- as I just told you -- has been to ban impersonations long before Elon Musk arrived. I've seen accounts that tried to impersonate me and many other people banned for years. He didn't invent this rule. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@thamiracb @viniciusduarte Sim, desconfio daqueles que querem o poder de censurar seus adversários. Acho que é fascismo e imperialismo implorar a bilionários estrangeiros para policiar os debates no Brasil. Sou claro sobre isso. Mas isso não altera o fato de que meu relato sobre o que aconteceu é preciso. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@StevenJCBuckley The rule banning confusing impersonations long pre-dated Musk's arrival and has been applied to ban many accounts. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

With their industry held in contempt, the public distrusting them, and most liberal outlets failing, the only thing journalists have left is their ability to act as little clique bullies on Twitter. What they're really furious about is the possibility they'll lose this status. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Note that nothing has changed on Twitter. No rules are different. I have high levels of skepticism about whether much will change beyond a few symbolic gestures (unbanning Babylon Bee, etc.). But just the mere possibility that Twitter may censor less is driving liberals mad. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The way liberals are trying desperately (and with futility) to find their own liberal Gab is so funny. Except the idea of Gab was to allow all banned opinions. Liberals are angry with Twitter because it potentially will no longer ban the views of their adversaries. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@viniciusduarte Expliquei a) que os 2 dos 3 mais votados foram banidos pelo juiz das redes sociais e b) o motivo foi a opinião de juiz de que estão espalhando desinformação. São afirmações de fato que você não está acostumado porque acha que todo mundo deveria ser Vera e JN e encher de opinião. — PolitiTweet.org
