  Did you even read the article? It wasn't about Hunter's penis.

It's a true conspiracy, but not bullshit.

The problem is there’s a lot of conjecture concerning intentions and thats basically unprovable. Some parts feel sensationalized for the sake of theater.

The biggest revelation from the previous dumps were that Joe Biden's team requested Twitter remove posts of Hunter Biden's nude body from the site, and they obliged. This is content moderation and completely reasonable. The latest revelation is that Twitter tried to keep antivax shit off the site. Everyone paying attention knew that was the case already, and was the right thing to do (Hacker News should do that, too).

  Let’s change the roles, dude distributes Ivanka’s nudes, for all intents and purposes it’s revenge porn. Which social media would not block the distribution? NONE. There are very clear laws around revenge porn. Now, what makes Hunter’s penis special besides the Republican obsession is beyond me.

    The biggest issue isn't the dick pics, but him smoking crack and potentially having sex with an underaged woman. He just happened to be naked while doing/potentially doing those things.

      He also was not the candidate, did not have a chance of getting a government position like his predecessor’s children, and there was no public interest in seeing his acts. It would have been newsworthy if they’d tried to hide the story of Hunter’s addiction but it was public knowledge already along with Joe’s desire to help his son get treatment.

        >He also was not the candidate, did not have a chance of getting a government position like his predecessor’s children And? Does that mean we should suppress evidence of crimes that are posted on Twitter because of that? If I committed a crime, should Twitter delete the articles and pictures? > It would have been newsworthy if they’d tried to hide the story of Hunter’s addiction but it was public knowledge already along It is more than just addiction. He may have had child porn on his computer and may have had sex with an underage girl. There is also the question of how he got such a cushy job with no experience and a drug addiction. >with Joe’s desire to help his son get treatment. Joe seems like he genuinely cares about his son and wanted him to get help. I don't think that is relevant though.

        Twitter isn’t law enforcement so, no, there isn’t a requirement that they provide free hosting and promotion for everyone alleging a crime. In this case, they briefly used their hacked materials policy until deciding that it didn’t apply to the news coverage but did continue to yank non-consensual nudes under their existing policies. If you genuinely believed that Hunter Biden had child porn or whatever Giuliani imagines, you’d definitely want that offline since there’s no public benefit to circulating criminal materials and law enforcement is definitely going to investigate it.

    I did not know revenge porn counts as criticism now.

  If that's the only thing you got from the article you should read it again. Either you're deliberately being dishonest or didn't read the article.
