A reader has pointed out to me that @Twitter hides almost all of the replies to my tweets. I’d seen this and presumed it affected everyone, but apparently not. Image
@Twitter Somehow Twitter’s algo is able separate out left-wing comments, which are not hidden. Take this tweet I posted about fake conservative Benji Backer. The replies you can see agree w/ Benji. @Twitter hides the replies agreeing w/ me
Also weird: the other day I was trying to read the replies to one of my tweets, and Twitter wouldn’t let me see them. (It said there were 4 but as you can see, I wasn’t able to actually view them)
Another reader sent me this video. I guess @Twitter can’t ban me as I haven’t violated their rules; they just make my content virtually impossible to see

Hilarious Rush Limbaugh moment from his 2009 CPAC address -->
What the left doesn’t acknowledge is how damn funny Rush was. I used to drive between NYC and DC and his show helped time fly by. During one episode he was telling a story about his wife putting on makeup, and he told her ...
"I can't believe you're farding in front of me."

"I'm not farting!"

"You're obviously farding right now!”

Rush then said that in many states, it’s actually “illegal for women to fard while driving” and what an injustice this is.

China knows they can commit cultural genocide against the Uyghurs because they already got away w/ it in Tibet (banning Buddhism/the Dalai Lama, Tibetan prayer flags, marriages of Tibetans that aren’t to Han Chinese). The world knew but looked the other way.
I visited Tibet in 2004 as China was in the midst of bulldozing the country. Historical sites were allowed to remain only for use as a Chinese tourist attraction. Propaganda everywhere claimed China “liberated” Tibet in 1951 — from freedom, apparently.
Tibet is almost impossible to access, but definitely worth the effort should you find yourself in central China. The only place I’ve visited where I kept thinking, “There’s nowhere like this anywhere else."

For those just catching up: The media have been spreading misinformation as part of their campaign to suppress unauthorized opinion

cc @JoeNBC
@JoeNBC The media have alternatively claimed rioters beat a cop to death with a fire extinguisher and an American flag — neither of which we now know is true.

Meanwhile, as the likes of @AOC stirred up anti-police activism, an ex-cop was murdered during a BLM protest in STL ...
@JoeNBC @AOC Two LAPD officers were ambushed ...

BLM marches on Washington, attack White House, Trump is evacuated to secure facility.

Media: So funny, Trump’s such a pussy!

Pro-Trump rioters attack Capitol, sending lawmakers to secure facility.

Media: My God, these terrorists have literally ended democracy as we know it
.@jimmykimmel on June 3, 2020: "Mr. Tough Guy was whisked into a panic bunker on Friday, as crowds assembled outside the White House. It took three and a half years, but he finally got a massive crowd to show up for him in D.C."
@jimmykimmel .@jimmyfallon on June 5, 2020: "Right now, the only thing lower than Trump’s approval rating is his underground bunker."

.@Axios, reporting (?) on how America can “deprogram” Trump’s “extremist” supporters, suggests expanding cancel culture axios.com/newsletters/ax…
@axios Do these people not realize they’re demanding totalitarian thought control?
@axios We just need "an all-out national effort to dismantle” sources of ideas that "undermine faith” in “democracy”; private companies "must be unwavering in their commitment” to this cause.
