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. Image

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.

Full time damage control, no doubt.

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.

The censored article can be linked to using archive.org (h/t @redqueenrx) although it's easy enough to find on the Post.

This early morning tweet was made before Twitter censored the story, so it still works. Feel free to RT this copy, if you want:

Oooops. It seems the tweet is mysteriously gone, literally three minutes after I retweeted it.
This thread has been targeted by yet another troll farm. I view this as an opportunity to increase the signal to noise ratio in my feed!

YouTube Qanon purge is here.

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.
Here’s what I believe about free speech.

This used to be the “liberal” view. Well, it still is. It’s just that the so-called liberals have become so illiberal.

The good news is that you can still find Polly and others on Bitchute.com. I’ll be visiting them more now.

Let me break down the Hunter Biden situation for you a bit.

Source: web.archive.org/web/2020101417…

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."

Cardi B is having a birthday today!

So, look at the lovely thing @AtlanticRecords put out about her on Twitter. Just kidding. It's nauseating.

Think this is a responsible corporation after an honest dollar? That's all? Really?

NSFW!
"There's some whores in this house" indeed. And Cardi B isn't the only one: Atlantic execs are much worse. She's just their product.

This is beyond corrupting. It's shockingly repulsive.

And it's advertising used by Atlantic. They're becoming billionaires on this sort of thing.
"Who said pu$$y can't take you to the top!" screams the video in gold lettering.

What exactly are they selling here? Not just Cardi B's music. They're selling a way of life.

Why? Because it's what's popular?

No. It wouldn't be nearly so popular if they weren't doing this.

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.

Shocked I am—shocked!—that it was not, in fact, “white supremacists” who plotted a Gov. Whitmer kidnapping.

One attended a BLM protest; one called Trump a “tyrant.”

The MSM prove themselves over and over to be bald-faced liars—irrational & desperate.

Twitter is censoring discussion of #Obamagate.

Compare the very limited search results when you search for #obamagate mobile.twitter.com/search?q=%23ob… (just 8 “top” results and **0** “latest results)

...and this more honest, uncensored search: duckduckgo.com/?q=%22%23obama…
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.
