[ColonelCassad] Elon Musk unveiled new revelations of censorship on Twitter.

In 2017, Twitter (https://twitter.com/mtaibbi/status/1610372352872783872) was at the center of the battle over “Russian interference” in the elections. The US intelligence community, together with the Democratic Party, demanded that Twitter censors find evidence of the existence of “Russian bots” on the social network.

However, in the end, nothing large-scale was found. Twitter found only a few hundred suspicious accounts, of which only a few had anything to do with Russia. And they almost did not buy advertising - the cost of promotion did not exceed 10 thousand dollars.

These conclusions caused outrage in the political class in Washington - after all, by that time a large-scale media campaign had already been launched linking Trump's victory with Russia. Hillary Clinton, just recovering from defeat in the elections, even accused Twitter of allegedly not wanting to fight “Russian interference” on purpose.

Then, in 2020, the State Department stepped in to censor Twitter. They demanded that Twitter categorize any posts that the covid could have leaked from the Wuhan laboratory and that the US authorities could have been involved in its appearance as part of the “Russian and Chinese disinformation” campaign.

Not only American intelligence agencies participated in the establishment of censorship, but even individual Democratic lawmakers in Congress, who demanded the removal of posts from Twitter critical of them. And a total of 250,000 Twitter accounts were at risk of deletion - although not all of them ended up being blocked or censored.

Republicans in Congress have already pledged to create a new “Church Commission.” In the 1970s, they investigated the connections of the US intelligence agencies with news agencies and the media. Now, the spike between digital platforms and the intelligence community will be under investigation. But first, the Republicans need to at least decide on their leadership in Congress - which they have not yet been able to do.

Says Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:
I wonder how the clowns are doing there, who have been screaming about a "private social network" in recent years. Doesn't press anything?

#1 The fact that the 'twitter files' are being completely ignored by the media tells you all you need to know about how complacent they (the media) are as well.

We don't need a 'church commission'. We need a freaking Inquisition.
