Frank, since you seem to trust any unverified information in a Twitter thread, here are some actual facts and questions for you. 🧵
We'll start by saying we think you are an incredibly bright person. A data guy. In the weeds. So how could you spread disinformation like this? 1/

Do you think we coordinated with Joni Mitchell and Neil Young? Do you think we coordinated w/ 270 scientists who wrote their letter about Rogan's COVID disinformation? Do you think we edited the Rogan compilation that first hit the Internet in 2019, a year before we existed? 2/
Have you listened to our podcast where we actually recommended we don't try to 'cancel' and 'silence' voices, but should instead engage and compete against them? Have you looked through our feed to see that we never advocated for canceling Rogan or boycotting Spotify? 3/
Did you notice that some of the most vile clips, like the "Planet of the Apes" one, were actually released by Alex Jones and InfoWars? Do you think a Democratic SuperPAC works with Alex Jones? Or is there a much simpler explanation here. 4/
Maybe, just maybe, Rogan was in the news. Leading the social media cycle. And so naturally when videos resurface, people use their First Amendment right to amplify. To criticize. That includes groups that make it their mission to root our hate and disinformation. 5/
I notice you don't defend any of the actual content - and instead are focused on attacking who you think is messenger behind it all. You can go ahead with your attempted "gotcha" moment all you want, but at the end of the day, the price to pay is your own credibility. 6/6
