OK, so Elon said that he knows that Twitter interfered with the election.

Looks like Musk is getting ready to populate the earth with zombified cyborgs.

Left will call it a nothing burger, and the right will call it Watergate on steroids.

I agree Bick, but to support the right: 1) Why wasn't this influence out in the open 2) It was illegal. There is Supreme Court precedence that shows that. Interestingly, Taibbi is not a right wing person. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insane_Clown_President

Biden wasn't the govt at the time, right?
Election interference seems to fall on the shoulders of the collusion between Twitter and the DNC. I don't know if that's illegal.
However, the suppression of dissenting viewpoints surrounding Covid vaccines under the guise of misinformation would be if it was found to be directed by the govt.

Good point. If the FBI contacted Twitter, that is a violation. If there is evidence of that, like what Zuckerberg said, then... then... the AG probably wont prosecute anyway....

I heard James woods say he was going to sue the DNC for instructing Twitter to shut down his account.
Not sure how it's something you could sue for. It's unethical as all hell, but I'm not sure there's much to get there.
Even in the court of public opinion, the lines seem drawn as usual. Let that sink in, we can't even agree about whether something that blatant is ethical.

I stand behind this premise, with the change to Twitter it has opened the floodgates of truth, discussion and free speech. To what ever degree, the inability of the left to have total control of the narrative has put cracks in many a dam, mostly with regard to Covid, the CDC and now Biden.

Well, they're not really winning yet, they're just not losing as badly.

We might have hit rock bottom and are starting to gain some momentum.

We might have hit rock bottom and are starting to gain some momentum. Just when we think we've hit rock bottom, we find there's another floor below us.
