Simply when one hoped Elon Musk’s now-terminated Twitter buyout would shield free speech on the community — assume once more. Twitter’s excessive bias in opposition to conservatives and media shops it doesn’t like rages on, and I've the screenshots to show it.
After quitting the social-media platform in 2021 in protest of its rampant censorship of conservatives, I made a decision to present it one other attempt to see if the billionaire entrepreneur’s laudable help without cost speech and strikes to amass the community improved its liberal bias. Not an opportunity!
The far-left activists that run Twitter are nonetheless rigging the platform within the Democratic Social gathering’s favor — in plain view — by pushing customers to observe liberal lawmakers, media shops and different lefty accounts versus conservative ones.
When rejoining Twitter final week, it requested me to pick subjects I’m concerned about. I selected “outdoor” and “enterprise/finance.” Then it made solutions for who to observe. Get able to cringe . . .
One in all its suggestions was chairman of the Home Intelligence Committee Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), a “Russia Hoax” conspiracy theorist who led the cost on former President Donald Trump’s impeachment and at present sits on the slanted Jan. 6 Committee attempting to drum up proof to indict the forty fifth president to cease him from working once more in 2024.
What the heck does that liberal lawmaker — and rabid Trump-hater — must do with my most popular subjects of curiosity? Zero.
Twitter additionally instructed I observe dozens of different liberal lawmakers, together with President Joe Biden, First Girl Jill Biden, the White Home, New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (a radical left-wing socialist who helps defunding police regardless of New York’s excessive crime price), Home Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Vice President Kamala Harris and Beto O’Rourke, who’s working in opposition to Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott. In fact, Twitter didn’t recommend I additionally observe Abbott, the elected incumbent, as that might be honest and balanced — one thing the “woke” activists at Twitter care little about.
Twitter advisable I observe Alexander Vindman, the previous director of European Affairs on the Nationwide Safety Council whose 2019 congressional testimony contributed to Trump’s impeachment. Once more, what does that Trump foe must do with my pursuits in finance and the good outdoor? Zilch!
Twitter additionally advisable I observe Sens. Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar, Ed Markey, Chris Murphy and Cory Booker in addition to US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and his partner. Add Hillary and Invoice Clinton, far-left “Squad” member Rep. Ayanna Pressley, the Obamas and Democratic nominee for governor of Georgia Stacey Abrams.
It additionally instructed far-left Massachusetts Lawyer Normal Maura Healey (additionally working for governor) who, in response to the riots and nationwide destruction following the demise of George Floyd in 2020, informed attendees at a Boston Chamber of Commerce occasion, “Sure, America is burning, however that’s how forests develop.”
Twitter didn’t recommend I observe any GOP lawmakers in Washington. Speak about rigged!
The stunning actuality is Twitter could also be steering probably thousands and thousands of customers — together with voters — to observe influential liberal accounts to regulate the political narrative to tilt elections in Democrats’ favor.
Paging the US Division of Justice: That’s what actual collusion and election-meddling seem like.
However wait, there’s extra. Right here’s a snippet of media shops and others Twitter instructed I observe. You’ll discover the bulk are left-wing and detest Trump and his “deplorable” supporters: The New York Occasions, Washington Publish, Boston Globe, The New Yorker, CNN hosts, Paul Krugman and practically a dozen MSNBC hosts. Add NPR, former CIA spook John Brennan, George Conway, Biden White Home press secretaries Jen Psaki and Karine Jean-Pierre, NBC’s Chuck Todd, Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert.
Twitter didn’t suggest I observe top-rated Fox Information or any of its hosts regardless of the outlet crushing its cable information rivals for many years. Nor did it recommend I observe the extremely revered New York Publish or different right-leaning shops or voices. Solely after scores of liberal accounts did Donald Trump Jr.’s title seem far down the checklist.
Gee, thanks!
As you'll be able to see, Twitter is stacked in opposition to conservatives and, with few exceptions, is appearing because the de facto publicity arm of the Democratic Nationwide Committee. The highly effective social-media behemoth is successfully making undeclared in-kind donations to the DNC by actively directing its customers — and voters — to observe liberal accounts so Democrats can unfold their political narrative du jour whereas suppressing conservative viewpoints, together with elected Republican lawmakers who characterize thousands and thousands.
If that isn’t interfering in US elections, what is strictly?
