The US govt is censoring your media by proxy:

Twitter, Facebook & Instagram have suspended accounts & blocked content conflicting w/ Washington's pro-war narrative.

Into #socialmedia, #informatics and #medialiteracy?

This is the story of how engagement through "likes" is now the biggest barrier to moving the needle. "Like" factories are a real thing!

Must watch!

A new paper has been making the rounds with the intriguing claim that YouTube has a *de-radicalizing* influence. https://t.co/TTtWR0uBgi

Having read the paper, I wanted to call it wrong, but that would give the paper too much credit, because it is not even wrong. Let me explain.

oopsie we did a eugenics! no worries all fixed

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Here’s a prediction: we are going to win, pass a Green New Deal, and criminally prosecute the fossil fuel executives who destroyed the planet.

Here are some photos of the Buttigieg fundraiser in Napa -- with the famous wine cave and the chandelier with 1,500 Swarovski crystals -- that @BrianSlodysko wrote about.

[Wendell Potter @wendellpotter]

It brings me no joy that my hunch that @petebuttigieg advised Blue Cross Blue Shield in the run-up to layoffs and rate hikes, was revealed to be right. Campaign spin aside, as a former insurance exec I know what that work really entails, and it is devastating. (1/7)

[Asset Manager Wake Up Call ⏰ @AM_WakeUpCall]

Hey, BlackRock employees!👋

Do you wonder why people keep showing up outside your office chanting about #ClimateChange? 🤷🏽‍♀️

We think BlackRock can do more on climate. And employees - like you - can help.

#BREAKING: @PeteButtigieg consulted for Blue Cross Blue Shield (involved in multiple corruption scandals) and Pentagon while it valiantly wasted a trillion dollars in Afghanistan. He’s PERFECT to lead the United Corporations of America https://t.co/HgTetEsfnM

[Wendell Potter @wendellpotter]

BREAKING: As a former corporate exec who worked with McKinsey, I may be able to shed light on one of @petebuttigieg’s unnamed McKinsey clients, and why it’s very significant in this campaign.

On McKinsey's promoted tweet about how ProPublica got their ICE story wrong (the promoted rebuttal contains 0 facts):

[RiotWomenn @riotwomennn]

@McKinsey Wow! I am going with adverse inference. If they had evidence to rebut the reporting, it would be in their paid ad

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

While we’re here, let’s clear up some GOP disinfo:
- “It’s 1500 jobs vs 25,000”: The 25,000 jobs figure was a 10-20 year fantasy # from Amazon, not a promise or agreement. In exchange for that lack of commitment, they wanted billions of public $. Their Y1 jobs projection was 700.

[Tareq Haddad @Tareq_Haddad]

Yesterday I resigned from Newsweek after my attempts to publish newsworthy revelations about the leaked OPCW letter were refused for no valid reason.

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

Is there anything more inspiring than watching 2 of the USA's richest people - worth more than a billion dollars between them - mock the idea of free college?

It's even more touching because they're both militarists who revere Israel & never ask how their wars will be paid for:
