  The left wants more gun control laws while simultaneously claiming that we shouldn't enforce gun control laws because they have a disparate impact on minorities.

  Dell Cameron solicited stolen documents. The NY Post didn't solicit stolen documents (which weren't stolen anyway)

  You've never heard of the Twitter files?

  "Nearly every bit of Berenson’s case was tossed out." No that's not true. The judge rejected Twitter's plea to have the case dismissed. The case was settled out of court but Twitter acknowledged that Berenson should not have been suspended. This was all before the Musk takeover.

  If twitter was "competent" then why was Alex Berenson banned after pressure from the White House? He was only reinstated months later after filing a lawsuit where Twitter admitted that Berenson had not violated any rules.

  12,762 per week? Out of millions of tweets?

  Why didn't the previous owners fix it? Don't blame Musk for something that he inherited.

• On the post: Hey Elon: Where Are The Twitter Files On Kevin McCarthy Pressuring Twitter To Reinstate MTG?

  

  bart ( profile ), 26 Jan, 2023 @ 02:15pm

  Kevin McCarthy was pressuring Twitter to NOT censor someone? How would that be a violation of the First Amendment? I'm not seeing how this is equivalent to Democrat coercion on Twitter to censor users.

  Last week Techdirt posted an article about how government agencies are using private contractors to violate privacy rights. But yet for some reason Techdirt is going to sit on the sidelines for the Twitter files scandal because it's totally normal for FBI agents to spend all day on Twitter looking for offensive tweets to flag.

• On the post: No, The FBI Is NOT ‘Paying Twitter To Censor’

  The FBI was paying Twitter to remove tweets by catturd that they found offensive

  Maus

  The Tennessee school board did not "ban" Maus. Please stop repeating this misinformation. This has been debunked numerous times.

  "Lead Stories" thought that a peer-reviewed journal was a "news blog". I think that shows the ignorance of this "fact checker".

• On the post: Donald Trump Says He's Going To Sue The Pulitzer Committee If They Don't Take Away The NY Times And WaPo Pulitzers

  

  bart ( profile ), 22 Nov, 2021 @ 10:02am

  The left is the party of FAKE victimhood. And the Washington Post has already had to "correct" over a dozen articles about this debunked nonsense. Any honorable organization would have already returned their Pulitzer. This Pulitzer should go on the same shelf as their Janet Cooke Pulitzer.

  I'm still here but the moderators won't let me respond to this verifiably false misinformation: "...all breakout infections come from unvaccinated people.." Let me know when you find a source for that.

  Re: Re:

  Actually this peer reviewed study shows no correlation between vaccination rates and rates of infection. I can't believe that 3 months after the new CDC guidance that people STILL think the vaccine means you can't transmit the virus: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10654-021-00808-7

  Re:

  The first round of polio vaccines didn't go so well. In fact it actually caused 40,000 cases of polio, 200 children were paralyzed and killed ten. Let's hope our first covid vaccines have better success. See Cutter incident here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC1383764/

  The vaccine does nothing to stop the "spread of the virus". We've known that since July.
