Twitter is now owned by @elonmusk and things are already changing.

Hopefully, Twitter’s shadow-banning will be ended.

@Jason @DavidSacks

This video shows how my tweets are shadow-banned.

This shadow-banning of my account began in November 2020, when I had 106K followers.

Ever since I’ve been constantly losing followers and people have been reaching out to inform me that they cannot see my tweets. ImageImageImageImage

Look at the number of followers as I refresh my page, jumping back and forth from 81.5K to 80.9K.

Listen to four #Iran apologists/lobbyists push Tehran's talking points of rooting the ongoing #IranRevoltuion on Trump nixing the 2015 nuclear deal (JCPOA) and imposing economic sanctions.

No mention of the regime's 43 years of brutalities.
2)
Azadeh Moaveni a member of the International Crisis Group, alongside another #Iran apologist/lobbyist Ali Vaez, a protege of former regime president Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani.

Moaveni is also very close to #IranLobby arm NIAC.

3)
Hoda Katebi is another #Iran apologist/lobbyist & a regular at NIAC events.

She called for burning the U.S. flag after the killing of Qassem Soleimani.

Her remarks about the U.S. are telling.

EU foreign ministers said yesterday they want concrete proof that #Iran's drones have been used by Russia against Ukraine.

While the EU is obviously appeasing Tehran's regime, let's provide the evidence.

Notice the triangular shape of the drone?

These are #Iran-made "Shahed-136" kamikaze drones.

Russia calls them the "Gerad-2 loitering munitions".

Iran's IRGC has been posting propaganda footage about these Iranian drones used by Russia in their Telegram channel. ImageImageImageImage

Another video of a Iranian-made Shahed-136 drone over Kyiv, the capital of #Ukraine.

@UChicago has invited Negar Mortazavi, a known & disgraced #Iran apologist/lobbyist, to discuss the ongoing #IranRevolution.

She is no voice of the Iranian people. In fact, she is close to Iran's regime & #IranLobby arm NIAC.

Listen to Negar Mortazavi run her #Iran talking points.

3)
Negar Mortazavi has portrayed Soleimani as a "heroic underdog" killed in "cowardly fashion" and claimed Iranians were "outraged" and would mourn him in a "rare show of national unity".
