How Twitter spread fake news about Covid


It only took Elon $44b to buy back free speech. Its sad that a African cares more about America and free speech than real Americans do.

The First Amendment doesn't apply to private companies like Twitter. You can be censored for any reason that Twitter sees fit and you can't do everything about it.

The 1st Amendment protects censorship from the government…eg. the FBI, which was responsible for the twitter censorship and they are lying about it.

The FBI Colluded With Twitter to Suppress Free Speech.

FBI officials created a special, secure online portal for Twitter staff, where the two sides could secretly exchange information about who was saying what on the platform and how that speech could be squelched. In this virtual "war room," the FBI made dozens of requests to censor political speech. Twitter chirpily complied.

Talking daily with government agencies through a secure government channel, having a government security clearance, and carrying out orders from the government is what an agent of government does. And that's what Twitter did.

This government-big tech partnership violated the First Amendment, a classic deprivation of civil rights.

At the end of the day, it is up to the governed—not the government—to decide what's misinformation. The FBI has zero legal authority to stop it, and by using Twitter as its agent, it violated the free speech rights of the people who were censored.

You make a lot claims yet you haven't provided reliable links to prove those claims.

If Trump allowed this there would be outrage from every democrat in the land, but alas, Liberals can get away with anything.

If thats true, then why is Fox News in trouble for spreading fake news about the 2020 election? Basically, Twitter colluded with the Gov to spread fake news and suppress information from Doctors.

Uh... Okay. Whatever you say sport.

Conundrum engaged.

it would be cool if The First Amendment applied to Trump as well.

That's debatable and why the protections for social media need to be removed.

A tribute to the American dream. A kid who grows up with nothing becomes one of the most successful people in history.
