It's potentially harmful, all right, @Twitter. It's harmful to your favored candidate's chances of re-election. And that's the *only* reason you're blocking it.
But good luck avoiding the Streisand Effect with this one.
If you're confused about what this is all about, expand the image and look at the blue-colored message at the bottom.
It seems this Post article hasn't been blocked by @Twitter yet. Come on, Twitter, keep up! You gotta keep whacking the moles!
Unfortunately, it looks like your lawn is completely shot.
The news on this story, from the NY Post, is moving fast.
"Team Biden called a 'lid' for reporters before 10 a.m.," meaning apparently(?) that Biden wouldn't make public appearances or answer questions on Wednesday.
In defense against this massive Biden story, it's not just Twitter that is circling the wagons. Facebook too is deliberately throttling the distribution of the Post's reporting on the story. Gee, I wonder what all the fuss is? Better check it out now.
It is appalling that now YouTube has taken down channels, like @99freemind, who just research various sources, share info, and draw sometimes wild (sometimes correct) inferences.
If it’s not libel, they should be free to speak their minds, period.
1/ Background: Joe Biden said his son had never spoken to him about his crazily lucrative job with Burisma—which was very unlikely, since Biden was Obama's Ukraine point man.
2/ Now we have a copy of an April 2015 email from Burisma adviser, a Vadym Pozharskyi, to Hunter Biden, saying, "thank you for inviting me to DC and giving an opportunity to meet your father..."
3/ A May 2014 mail from Pozharskyi to Hunter requested the younger Biden's "advice on how you could use your influence."
So not only did Biden meet Pozharski, it seems to have been in response to an earlier request for Hunter to use his "influence."
1/ I enjoy two things, (1) that once- and still-maligned (as “far right”) new journalism sources are breaking many important stories, and (2) that the MSM is constantly being humiliated as their falsehoods are exposed.
This is a true media revolution, happening quietly.
2/ It is true that people still in thrall to the MSM have little clue about this. But their numbers dwindle daily. Cry, “advocacy journalists,” cry.
And as their influence wanes, more and more unlikely-seeming allies of the once “right”—now, just “Americans”—show up, awakened.
3/ As much as social media has been corrupted, the power of crowdsourcing is still responsible for much of this revolution. So many stories break now on Twitter, blogs, and other popular sources.
The media class qua mediators are less necessary today.
I use DDG to search inside sites a lot now, usually on YouTube, but now apparently on Twitter. Manipulative fools.
Wait...I spoke too soon. There aren’t any tweets in the DDG search newer than 2018. Most are taken down. And *my* new #obamagate is now the only “latest” result for this popular hashtag?! What’s going on?
My guess is DDG uses old data from the Twitter API.
