Jack Dorsey took the initiative to side with the people who tried to overthrow the Turkish government in 2016. I'm surprised Twitter still survives. The MSM almost entirely ignores this because they're fixated on this "strongman" narrative that makes American liberals feel good about themselves.

My understanding is that the Twitter block in 2016 had less to do with Twitter as a company and more to do with Tayipp not being able to control the flow of information.

This is also why soundcloud was blocked for 3 years, because people used it to post the recordings of him telling Bilal to remove all of the cash from the family houses in case they were searched.
