@TheInvisibleHnd Yep.. Strange silence in the Twitter Files about the bad behavior of any other government besides the US.

[LLadany @lladany]

“No GOvErnMeNt CoLLusiOn!” 🙄

The lies Big Tech has told about its relationship with the federal government are staggering..

[Matt Taibbi @mtaibbi]

6.Twitter had so much contact with so many agencies that executives lost track. Is today the DOD, and tomorrow the FBI? Is it the weekly call, or the monthly meeting? It was dizzying.

[IT Guy @ITGuy1959]

Twitter was a branch of the federal government posing as a social media company.

@Leftylockdowns1 True. Tbh, the focus on “coercion” in the analysis of government-private collusion is arbitrary and nonsensical. Payments, regulatory favors, merely providing human capital free of charge, or any other form of incentivization are just as powerful and unjust as coercion.

[Jenin Younes @JeninYounesEsq]

Under the First Amendment, government cannot work with tech companies to censor people for expressing disfavored viewpoints. It's important to correct a common misconception that has been percolating, as has become apparent to me through a number of conversations. 1/

@Leftylockdowns1 @annbauerwriter @elonmusk What I hate about TWTR censorship is that a) it exists, but it involves assumptions & mind reading. Who are these angels manning the censor desk that get to decide what someone means when they say something as cryptic as “steel yourself?” It’s ridiculous & wrong.

I'm sorry to report my friend @annbauerwriter was suspended for below (in reply to someone saying they planned to read "the Road"). @elonmusk what is going on over there? Have we traded censorship on covid topics for censorship on ridiculous misinterpretations of basic English?

[Jay Bhattacharya @DrJBhattacharya]

The government's program of censoring dissident scientists had two goals, the 2nd worse than the 1st.
➡️To silence, denigrate, and ex-communicate scientists, no matter how credible, who dared disagree with gov't science bureaucrats &
➡️To cause other scientists to self-censor.

Omg these people want me to pay to read about how great NYC was in lockdowns. The world has gone insane. https://t.co/TzU5JsQbeG

Please bring @MichaelPSenger back @elonmusk Interview with Russell Brand https://t.co/5E8wCSpxCJ

[Royce Jacob @RoyceJacob16]

@backtolife_2023 This is why you all should read Michael Senger's piece on the interview with former DRASTIC member J.J. Couey. Serial passage is the key narrative point to selling us round 2, the biomedical police state, collapse, reset, etc...

And here we are

Will it take 50 years for the American public health industrial complex to apologize for the violations of basic civil rights it enacted during the pandemic?

[Seth Dillon @SethDillon]

1. Free people have a right to be wrong.
2. The NY Times is wrong all the time.
3. Many of the reinstated accounts weren't wrong; they were banned for making true-but-prohibited statements.
4. Blocking opinions from the public square is worse than being wrong about anything.

[NeverAgainIsNow @NeverAgainIsNw]

@elonmusk please bring back @michaelpsenger

[Laura Powell @LauraPowellEsq]

Really worthwhile listen.

It's hard to take @elonmusk's commitment to free speech principles seriously as long as people like @MichaelPSenger are still banned from Twitter.

[LLadany @lladany]

It’s morally, legally, and intellectually repugnant that officials have clandestinely created a vast apparatus for censoring citizens’ legal speech on the pretext of combatting foreign disinformation.

[LLadany @lladany]

@TheGhostSleepi1 So true..

[LLadany @lladany]

This is an absolutely embarrassing response from the FBI on revelations of its vast domestic censorship apparatus.

Remember: this is the same Bureau the world has been trusting to prevent and disclose CCP influence on the response to COVID. 😮

[Aaron Kheriaty @AaronKheriatyMD]

😯 This is their response. Jaw dropping. Conspiracy theorists? Twitter Files brought the receipts. This suggests that the Agency has no substantive response. That’s all we need to know.
