in this case the government was run by donald trump, and the censorship was to remove stolen revenge porn
- remarkEon 4y agoOne of the results of the restrictive reporting on that subject, and the self-censorship by journalists on the topic at the time the story broke, is that people think it was only about "stolen revenge porn".
- chroma 4y agoIt wasn't "stolen revenge porn". It was information about how Joe Biden used his political power to shield his son from the consequences of his misdeeds. That story was completely censored from Twitter. You couldn't even link to it. And the US government isn't run by any one person. The president is the most powerful individual, but there are other officials (both elected and appointed), and they are the ones who colluded. I don't care whether it's the president, or the speaker of the house, or a freshly-trained FBI agent. Nobody in government should be pressuring private companies to prevent people from reading what they want to read.
- nathanaldensr 4y agoDo a CTRL+F for the phrase revenge porn in this thread. It's not an honest attempt at an explanation; it's a specific, coordinated tactic to misdirect away from the incredible information that the Bidens were corrupt. This has absolutely nothing to do with Hunter's ****.
