DeSantis vs Disney

You have to either be one of the most naive people alive or one the dumbest.

Which one is it?

So, you believe that the "Twitter Files" were all made up.. that multiple government officials and departments didn't have their hands and money all over Twitter?



Republicans are the Party of Law... we let the court of law decide the case.

After the first set of Files was published, many technology journalists wrote that the reported evidence did not demonstrate much more than Twitter's policy team having a difficult time making a tough call but resolving the matter swiftly, while right-wing voices said the documents confirmed Twitter's liberal bias. According to Rolling Stone, while a significant portion of the Twitter files were devoted to Twitter's handling of takedown requests by Democrats and federal officials, Republican officials also "routinely asked Twitter to take down posts they objected to".

An internal study Twitter conducted in 2018 found its algorithms favored the political right.Wired and Slate described the policy by which moderators were unable to act on high-profile conservative accounts without first escalating to high-level management as "preferential treatment",

Musk claimed that Twitter's content moderation violated the First Amendment. However, legal experts refuted the idea that content moderation by a private company violates the First Amendment, as it only restricts government actors. David Loy, legal director for the First Amendment Coalition, said that Twitter is legally able to choose what speech is allowed on their site, noting that both the Biden campaign, which was not part of the government, and the Trump White House could request specific content moderation actions.

Looks like both Democrats and Republicans asked Twitter to remove some tweets, sometimes Twitter complied if I violated their terms of service, and sometimes they didn’t. So what’s the big deal?

Looks like Republicans were getting favoritism and preferential treatment.

I saw nothing of the government coming in and forcing Twitter to do anything.
