Different owner, same censorship, same double standard
Elon Musk now owns Twitter. Is Twitter better than before? Yes. However, that's not saying much. Twitter was once a full-communist platform. Now, it's just a little less tyrannical. Is Musk actually a free speech purist? Either he is not in full control of his company or he is absolutely not 100% behind free speech! Twitter continues to ban and shadow ban accounts. We know this to be true because Musk's Twitter was actively doing just that to @NoWokeCompanies. Upon creating a new account, we discovered that @NoWokeCompanies posts were not even appearing in threads started by accounts outside of @NoWokeCompanies followers. At one point Twitter banned @NoWokeCompanies for a period of time. Twitter finally permanently shadow banned @NoWokeCompanies for pointing out the fact that Brittney Griner walks and quacks like a transgender.
8/9/2024 - Confirmed: Left-Leaning Media Hailed, 74% of Right-Leaning Media Punished!
Under the new @BoycottWokeCorp account, Twitter is already inexplicably flagging posts challenging climate change as possibly containing 'offensive content'.
BELOW: This is the post that Twitter says 'may contain offensive content'.
DOUBLE STANDARD: We found post after post after post about "Let MAGA Die". Approved! But as soon as we posted a Tweet about "Let Liberals Die" (from getting four vaccine shots) we were censored.
Gab remains the best 1st Amendment protected free speech platform. However, with 450 million users, it is important that Twitter does not go the way of MySpace. If that were to happen, this would be a victory for the radical left (the DNC, media, Marxist corporations, etc) who want strict censorship. The failure of Twitter to succeed as a free speech platform would create a chilling effect.
Elon Musk refused to unban Alex Jones until 12/10/2023. Alex Jones is a litmus test for freedom of speech. Alex Jones was never been banned from Gab, Truth Social, Gettr, or Parler.
Ministry of Truth: Twitter has hired a staff to '‘Combat Election Disinfo’ ahead of the 2024 election.
Before taking over Twitter, Musk had said that he would un-ban Donald Trump, however, he also stated that a "temporary suspension" of Trump after the 2019 election would have been "appropriate” (for essentially urging a crowd to peacefully protest). Really?! This position is unacceptable! Why haven't Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schummer, Maxine Waters, Ayanna Pressley, and Kamala Harris been banned for actually inciting violence?
Instead of just automatically reinstating the account of Donal Trump, Musk posted a survey for Twitter users to decide yes or no.
Musk has stated that he is "one of the top donors" to the radical left-wing ACLU. This is egregious!
Elon Musk stands with Yoel Roth, the notoriously far-left-wing Twitter 'integrity' head who thinks Trump supporters are Nazis. Yoel Roth once smeared the entire midwestern states with a Tweet that read, "We fly over those states that voted for a racist tangerine for a reason." Yoel Roth likened Kellyanne Conway to Nazi propagandist, Joseph Goebbels.
Elon Musk says that "negative/hate tweets will be debosted & demonetized". He says that Twitter's new policy is "Freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach", which is a verbatim talking point of the radical ADL.
After taking over Twitter, Musk met with executives from the racist, rabidly anti-free speech, anti-conservative, mouthpiece of the DNC known as the Anti-Defamation League, as well as the hysterical, hyper-partisan, race-mongering Color of Change, the hyper-partisan, far-left-wing, race-mongering NAACP, and the censorship-advocating group ironically called Free Press.
Twitter continues to 'fact-check' posts.
Elon Musk says that Twitter will follow and question science. This could be interpreted in different ways, but it appears as though Musk is interested in questioning things like the vaccines, masks, lockdowns, etc.
Infowars’ Banned.video platform censored by X: Users can’t post links or send in private nessages.
Months after Elon Musk took over, secret hidden code, which was planted by the leftists who previously ran the company, was still shadow banning users.
Twitter initially rejected the Daily Wire’s documentary 'What Is a Woman?' on the basis of 'misgendering'. Twitter flagged the movie, saying the movie 'may violate Twitter’s rules against Hateful Conduct'. Later, Twitter claimed it was a 'mistake' and Elon Musk posted the movie as a Tweet. So evidently, Musk has not rooted out all of the old company censors. Later, some woke employees left the company.
HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM: Musk named Linda Yacarrino as Twitter's new CEO. Beware of this woman! Yacarrino served as an advertising executive at the far-left-wing propaganda network, NBCUniversal. She wants more Twitter 'content moderation' AKA censorship. She wants Musk to reinstate Twitter's dreaded old 'Influence Council' (AKA censorship council). She is known for praising ESG. She praises diversity (discrimination) in the workforce. Yacarrino is a feminist. "My division is going to be 50% women and 50% people of color", Linda Yacarrino once said while at NBCUniversal/Comcast. She pushed COVID lockdowns, masks, and everyone getting vaccinated. She was also chair of the Taskforce on the Future of Work at the far-left-wing World Economic Forum. When left-wing outlets like Vox praise her as "a seasoned ad executive who could restore the company’s trust with advertisers", that's when you know that she's trouble. Hopefully, Elon is just using her as a fascade to bring back advertisers and she won't actually manage to impose her leftist ideology on the company.

Twitter and Facebook censor Republican members of Congress at a rate of 53 to 1 compared to Democrats.
Twitter conspired with the DNC to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story.

When Twitter is not banning conservatives, they are preventing their tweets from trending.
Twitter has not banned Vladimir Putin.
In a vile attack on free speech, Twitter banned President Trump's account. Prior to this, Trump was censored by Twitter no less than 625 times. Twitter has never censored Joe Biden.
According to techacute.com, there are three types of shadowbanning on Twitter:
- Thread ban: bans others from seeing your replies to tweets
- Search suggestion ban: bans others from seeing your profile in the search results
- Search ban: bans your tweets from the search results, even if it matches the exact search words used

Twitter is against North Carolina's bathroom bill.
Twitter is anti-science.

Twitter suspended the account of the Babylon Bee for naming transvestite, Rachel Levine as 'Man of the Year' in a satire article. Twitter called the comedy 'hate speech'.
Twitter is an echo chamber of Democrats -- Not a cross section of America. According to the Pew Research Center, 69% of Twitters most active users are Democrats. Only 10% of Twitter users generate 92% of US tweets. The 10% most active Democrats tweeted 157 times per month, verus just 79 times for the 10% most active Republicans.
A tiny minority are the loudest on Twitter: 92% of all Tweets are coming from about 1.76% of Americas. 22% of adult Americans use Twitter. Only 10% of Twitter users generate 92% of US tweets. Therefore, only about 1.76% of Americans post 92% of all Tweets.

Twitter banned Trump, but allows democrats to deny elections...
Cracking down on conservative journalism: Twitter bans photos and video of individuals without their consent, unless they are "newsworthy". There lies the catch. Twitter gets to be judge and jury. Expect that content which hurts democrats will be deemed as not newsworth? This is just further communist-style censorship. Twitter used trickery to justify the ban as intended to protect "women, activists, dissidents, and members of minority communities".
From a business perspective, Twitter puts ideology ahead of profits.
Twitter is headquartered in the Marxist city of San Francisco.
Twitter requires employees to get vaccinated.
From a pure business perspective, Twitter puts political ideology ahead of profits and shareholders.
THE BOTTOM LINE:
We support Twitter under Elon Musk only when used in addition to Gab, Truth Social, and Gettr. Since Musk took over, Twitter has become a battleground for free speech. We recommend sending a strong message to leftists by setting up a Twitter account.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Use Gettr.com, a Twitter-style social media platform launched by Team Trump on July 4, 2021.
2. Use Gab, a Facebook-style social media platform. 1,784 engagement ranking as of 4/17/2021. CEO, Andrew Torba is committed to free speech! Gab is the ONLY free speech platform. They are able to keep it this way because they built their own cloud servers, and therefore are not restrained by Big Tech web infrastructure companies, which ALL censor to one degree or another.
3. TRUTH Social - Trump's social media network. Launching in late March 2022. A web-based app is coming soon. For now, TRUTH Social is just a smart phone app.
5. You can use CloutHub as a backup plan if you wish. Clouthub is committed to free speech. However, right now Clouthub is just not gaining much traction. 46,589 engagement ranking as of 7/4/2021.
