Twitter

Twitter is a rather peculiar, on line, social networking arrangement. Its main feature is that it is limited to 140 characters per tweet, per message.

This is why it has become a tool of Left Wing propagandists. Tweets are long enough to make allegations or send slogans but short enough to prevent reasoned argument or discussion. Hubert Collins explains in The Maoists Of Ferguson & The Media Blackout. You might feel that Chinese communism has been adequately debunked, especially in China. It has but that does not prevent Lenin's Useful Idiots pushing it. They run http://revcom.us/, the web site of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA. Other communist offshoots hate them while the Main Stream Media conceal the truth.
2022 UPDATE:-
Elon Musk has bought Twitter for $44 billion. The Hard Left are very annoyed so this is good news. Mary Wakefield of The Spectator approves. See In Defence Of Elon Musk.
PS Someone else comments at Why The Left Loves Twitter. 
PPS Musk's Takeover of Twitter Is A Total Disaster And No It's Not About The N Word. So writes Andrew Anglin. Musk has lied to us about what he was going to do.

The Maoists Of Ferguson & The Media Blackout
Out of all the photos I have seen of the protests, looting, arson, etc. regarding the recent decision to not indict Officer Darren Wilson [ see Ferguson - Editor ], by far the most interesting ones are those featuring Maoists.

No, that was not a typo. In fact it was a very precise descriptor: Maoists, while being Communists, are a specific type of Communist; as their name implies, they are the variety of Communists that particularly admire Mao Zedong, as opposed to Lenin, Trotsky, etc. While not exactly numerous, there are some Maoists in the United States, and they come out in full force in the latest protests sweeping the nation.

They look like regular protesters, I know, but they have little giveaways that are easy to spot once you know a bit more about them. The easiest giveaway is the URL “revcom.uss”, which is the website of the Maoist group, Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP). Since Conservatism Inc. throws around the slur “Communist” on a fairly regular basis, I fear I might be coming off as a bit hyperbolic by calling these people Communists, so allow me to list a few of the RCP’s beliefs to show that I am not bloviating:

Exploring their website is a wonderland of insanity, perhaps you fine readers could check it out yourselves and post in the comments the zaniest things you can find (my vote is for their claim that “slow genocide” against blacks in [ and? ] Latinos is being committed in the US). What is of course important to remember, is that the RCP is doing its best to advertise their website on the occasion of all this #Ferguson unpleasantness, which is why the URL is always splashed across their banners, posters, etc.:..........

Another giveaway that you are looking at RCPers is their t-shirts. Again, you need to know what to look for to spot anything, so let’s take a look at some of their products on their Zazzle page:

Unfortunately, the Zazzle page is a bit out of date, and their website does not seem to have an “apparel” section. However, an immigration restrictionist blogger took some excellent shots of RCP t-shirts at a May Day rally two years ago:

There are several constants you can find in all, or almost all, of the clothing: the word “revolution” in yellow/orange, the phrase “revolution, nothing less”, references to “BA” as in “Bob Avakian”, and “the whole damn system is guilty” and “get with the real revolution,” and more often than not, the URL revcom.us. Let’s take another look at some more protesters:...........

Note the “revcom.us” on the banner, and the woman with the fop of blonde hair in the lower left with a “Revolution — Nothing Less” shirt.

For those of you who think I may be “stretching” in assuming what certain apparel says when almost all of the photos leave the matter far from crystal clear, you should explore the revcom.us website once again. Consider how when the RCP released a DVD of Bob Avakian giving a talk, the cover of it read, “BA Speaks: Revolution — Nothing Less” with “Get With It” scrawled along the bottom of the DVD in faux-graffiti style. “Revolution — Nothing Less” is in the same fire-like orange/yellow, as is the word “Revolution” in their official newspaper, which is called “Revolution”. Referencing Bob Avakian as “BA” is very common within the RCP as well, there is even a book they released called BAsics, which is a “greatest hits” compilation of writings by Bob Avakian, and is advertised with the slogan “You can’t change the world if you don’t know the BAsics”.

As you have likely noticed, the RCPers seem more prevalent on the Left Coast generally, and Oakland particularly. Aside from the obvious political reasons for this, the RCP is based in Berkeley as well, and is known to cause trouble during local protests, like five years ago after the shooting of Oscar Grant in San Francisco. Regardless, they certainly get around. Last year they were spotted in Florida to protest the innocent verdict in the George Zimmerman/Trayvon Martin affair, which the Daily Caller made note of briefly, but got the name of the group wrong, claiming they were with the CPUSA instead of the RCP, as their banners proudly made clear. A more talented journalist at the San Francisco Weekly wrote an interesting piece taking a look at the RCP’s attempts to recruit by way of the anti-Zimmerman verdict protests that took place last year — and their attempts to recruit by way of most any protest that is sweeping the nation.

As they have tried so many times in the past, like with Occupy Wall Street, the RCP is now trying to gain new recruits through the latest leftist craze. I would here like to make clear that I am in no way suggesting that the RCP is behind the protests as a whole — there is no evidence for that — or that they will succeed in co-opting the protests. Their numbers are quite small, and every RCPer that I have met (about six) has been over the age of sixty — except one man who was in his forties, and their obvious over-eagerness to talk to young people about “the revolution” is embarrassingly unappealing. They have also been known to alienate even people who might be inclined to join them. When I lived in Chicago I knew several lefties who loathed the RCP because they made a habit of swarming “spoken word” events and shamelessly trying to recruit even during the presentations.

Even within the Marxian left they have numerous enemies. The “International Communist League”, with is Trotskyist instead of Maoist in pedigree, has repeatedly attacked the RCP for (in their opinion) their puritanical anti-sex beliefs, suffering from a “cult of personality” around Bob Avakian, and being homophobic. Other groups have attacked them for being too sympathetic to the Democrats, and even groups as radical as the “Kasama Project”, who support the Maoist rebels in Nepal, have published lengthy attacks on the RCP. In short, the RCP likes to think of itself as a vanguard – but they have not even managed to unite all of the American Maoists under their banner, making them a candidate for what Greg Johnson has called “Vantardism.”

What the RCP’s presence at all of these protests does show, however, is the shocking extent of the left and the dominant media’s double standard. Not one website I pulled these photos from explained by way of captions what the RCP is or what they represent, presumably because it would conflict with the idea that the protests are entirely a spontaneous grass roots movement by Blacks. I have been watching plenty of CNN these last few days as well, and have seen RCPers protesting live, accompanied by live commentary from newscasters who were invariably mute on the topic of the RCP.

How can this be when any conservative with ties to American Renaissance invariably finds himself purged from “respectable” circles, always to the delight and at the behest of the media? The media loves to do guilt-by-association pieces when they want to go after conservative causes, but we don’t see that here.

Not pointing out that apologists for Mao and Stalin are prominently present at protests against supposed “state violence” is a great example of media bias. Let it serve as another reminder that in the name of their egalitarian agenda, they will justify or ignore just about anything.

The service rapidly gained worldwide popularity, with more than 100 million users who in 2012 posted 340 million tweets per day.[12] The service also handled 1.6 billion search queries per day.[13][14][15] In 2013 Twitter was one of the ten most-visited websites, and has been described as "the SMS of the Internet."[7][16] As of July 2014, Twitter has more than 500 million users, out of which more than 271 million are active users.[8]

 

 

Twitter Initiates Mass Purge Of Prominent Alt-Right Accounts Following Trump Victory  [ 21 November 2016 ]
Twitter is another left wing Propaganda machine driven by hatred of Free Speech. It enemies are our friends. It hates Richard Spencer, the National Policy Institute & Radix Journal among many others.

As a result many alt-right users are heading over to Gab, a Twitter substitute platform with a much more aggressive free speech policy.

 

Twitter Attacks Free Speech  [ 30 August 2018 ]
QUOTE
Twitter has removed another batch of accounts from its platform for participating in what it calls 'coordinated manipulation.' 

The social media giant announced late Monday that it had suspended another 486 accounts believed to be linked to Iran's disinformation campaign, bringing the total number of deleted accounts to 770.  Last week, Twitter announced it had taken down 486 accounts that were tied to Iran.

'Since our initial suspensions last Tuesday, we have continued our investigation, further building our understanding of these networks,' Twitter's safety division wrote in a tweet. 'In addition, we suspended an additional 486 accounts for violating the policies outlined last week. 

'That bringing the total suspended to 770,' they continued.

Free Speech is just fine as long as 'they' approve. After that it is hate speech. They are using Iran as a whipping boy because it is unpopular with Jews. Zionist crazies have been inciting America to invade the country, a power play to strengthen their control of the Middle East. They have failed so far because the Pentagon is not quite that stupid.

 

Twitter Expecting $250 Million Fine For Lying To Users About Their Data   [ 5 August 2020 ]
QUOTE
Twitter has revealed it is expecting a $250 million (Ł192 million) fine from the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) for misleading users over the use of their data. The social media giant used phone numbers and emails for targeted advertising between 2013 and 2019, the FTC alleges. Twitter had already admitted to email addresses and phone numbers being used for advertising purposes last year but said it was done inadvertently. Twitter generally requests users' phone numbers and emails for security purposes, including two-factor authentication. 

The company is already recovering from a high-profile security breach last month, which it said could have an 'adverse impact' on business and reputation.

Gab Calls For Twitter To Be Banned After Capitol Riot  [ 15 January 2021 ]
QUOTE
Just kidding. 

Federal law enforcement today advised the AP that there was  significant activity on Twitter directed towards the organization of the Capitol Hill riots. Twitter was also the place where a man was using coded language to sell child porn according to news reports this week. The Washington Post reported a mountain of evidence was discovered of the organization the happened on Facebook for the January 6th protests. Facebook’s Chief Operation Officer, Sharyl Sandberg, deflected the blame to you guessed it: Gab.

The New York Times at first  wrongfully and baselessly reported that Gab and Parler were to blame, but has since amended that position after new evidence surfaced about Facebook’s role in what happened on January 6th.

The legacy press and activist groups such as the Anti-Defamation League, each also blamed two challenger sites – Gab and Parler – rather than the big sites like Twitter and Facebook where rioters actually planned their activities.............
It’s interesting that Twitter remains online and has access to App Stores and Gab does not. The reason is clear: Big Tech has no principles other than its desire to serve the interests of the radical left and the Democratic Party. They can’t say it out loud so they say it with their actions.

With the Democrats in control of the government, regulation of Big Tech is not the answer. Begging Apple and Google for access is not the answer.

Twitter Attacks Free Speech By The Gateway Pundit  [ 7 February 2021 ]
QUOTE
Twitter has permanently suspended The Gateway Pundit’s account over what it says are “repeated violations” of the platform’s rules.

The social media giant said the account, run by conservative Jim Hoft, was suspended for repeated violations of its “civic integrity policy,” according to a statement viewed by  media outlets. The Epoch Times has reached out to Twitter to seek confirmation. The policy states that users may not use the platform “for the purpose of manipulating or interfering in elections or other civic processes.”

As of Saturday, the @gatewaypundit handle was no longer available. Prior to the suspension, the account had at least 375,000 followers.

In an article on The Gateway Pundit website, Hoft argued that the suspension came hours after his website posted on Twitter an update regarding an ongoing investigation of election day at the Detroit TCF Center, which was the subject of a number of allegations about election irregularities..................

Perceived unbalanced moderation of users’ content by social media companies has raised concerns over First Amendment rights and a lack of checks and balances for decisions made by these Big Tech companies. Efforts to limit or eliminate liability protections under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act for companies that have engaged in censoring or political conduct have been heavily discussed in the past year.

Twitter Protects Biden By Suppressing Corruption Stories  [ 12 February 2021 ]
QUOTE
Clearly those advocates were highly successful. Yet Ms. Ball makes no mention of the fact that the most consequential use of this censorship tool in 2020 was an abusive blocking of true information. Accurate New York Post reporting on Biden family influence peddling was suppressed by Twitter and other media outlets. Even people tempted to endorse censorship as a tool to ensure reasonable political debate must acknowledge that it failed miserably in helping to inform the public in 2020. The Time article suggests that this lesson, too, is being suppressed.

The Mainstream Media told us that Fake News is very bad; they were blaming social media on the Internet. The reality is that they are the biggest perpetrators. And yes, Twitter is just like Facebook, a part of the media and a Big Tech Bully.

In an eerie turn of events, microblogging site Twitter suspended Dr Robert Malone the inventor of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines for posting a video that explained harms feared from the virus vaccine Pfizer.

Twitter Cancels Russia Over Covid Biowarfare Accusations  [ 11 August 2022 ]
QUOTE
This morning Russia’s RT reported that Twitter had suspended the official account of Russia’s Foreign Ministry:

Twitter has temporarily suspended the account belonging to Russia’s foreign ministry, officials in Moscow have revealed. According to the ministry’s spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, the punitive measure was imposed after the diplomats cited a Russian military commander, who had alleged the US could have been behind the Covid-19 pandemic.

On Tuesday, Zakharova posted a message on her Telegram channel, saying that on August 5, Twitter “blocked for seven days the official account of the foreign ministry in English.” The diplomat explained that the harsh reaction had been triggered by the ministry posting a tweet featuring excerpts from a speech delivered earlier by the head of Russia’s Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Protection Troops, General-Lieutenant, Igor Kirillov...........

After Russia’s war with Ukraine broke out six months ago, numerous harsh Western sanctions have been imposed upon Russia and individual Russians. But this suspension was unprecedented, with no such previous action having ever been taken against an official Twitter account of the Russian government.

This drastic step underscores the enormous gravity of those Russian accusations. If the world began to suspect that Covid was an American bioweapon, the global political landscape might dramatically shift.

I have no particular insight into the thinking of the Twitter monitors who suspended Russia’s account, but I suspect that they sincerely regarded those Russian Covid accusations as totally absurd and dangerous, an outrageous “conspiracy theory” having absolutely no basis in reality................

For more than two years, I’ve been stunned by the complete unwillingness of virtually any mainstream or alternative journalists to take notice of the very strong evidence of American culpability.

Elon Musk Grips Twitter & Purges Left Wing Apparatchiks   [ 30 October 2022 ]

Thursday as Elon Musk’s deal for Twitter became official he started cleaning house. According to executives close to the matter, Musk fired four top executives. These executives are supposedly Twitter’s Chief Executive Officer Parag Agrawal, the Chief Financial Officer Ned Segal, the Top Legal and Policy Executive Vijaya Gadde, and the General Counsel Sean Edgett. It was also reported by The New York Times that at least one of these executives was escorted out of the building.

It is still unclear if he had completed the deal with Twitter at the time he entered the building and began firing people. Though, as of now, he had a deadline of Friday to complete the $44 billion deal.

Twitter Employees Leave In Droves After Elon Musk's Hardcore Ultimatum s  [ 18 November 2022 ]

Hundreds of Twitter employees apparently quit Thursday after new CEO Elon Musk gave workers an ultimatum: commit to a “hardcore” work environment, or be fired.
The reported exodus threw Twitter into more turmoil and came as staffers at the social media giant were given a 5 p.m. Thursday deadline to sign onto Musk’s workplace pledge.

The resignations were gleaned from internal Twitter communications, including a poll where 42% of 180 workers surveyed Thursday said they were “Taking the exit option, I’m free,” Reuters reported...............

Following the mass exodus, Twitter alerted workers that its offices would be closed until Monday and their badge access would be cut until then, sources told Reuters.

Elon Musk Sacks Crooked Lawyer  [ 8 December 2022 ]
QUOTE
Twitter owner Elon Musk confirmed that one of its top officials, James Baker—a former FBI general counsel—was “exited” from the company on Tuesday amid concerns that were raised about his “possible role in suppression of information.”

“In light of concerns about Baker’s possible role in suppression of information important to the public dialogue, he was exited from Twitter today,” wrote Musk on Twitter. Musk did not offer any more details on Baker’s exit or what role he played at the firm.

Musk, the new owner of Twitter, was responding to an article penned by Jonathan Turley, the George Washington University law professor and political commentator, who noted that Baker was a former FBI general counsel. Baker has not issued a public comment about his apparent departure from the social media firm.

It came days after Musk provided internal Twitter information to journalist Matt Taibbi, who had published details about the social media platform’s decision to essentially censor the New York Post’s report about Hunter Biden’s laptop in October 2020.

Baker was an FBI wallah where corruption is high level policy. They perpetrated the Ruby Ridge Massacre and got away with it. The Deep State is the Enemy Within.

Twitter has created a series of barriers and tools for moderators to prevent specific tweets and topics from trending, or limit the visibility of entire accounts without users’ knowledge, according to internal correspondence and interviews with multiple high-level sources within the company.

Despite repeated public assurances by top Twitter officials that the company does not “shadow ban” users, especially not “based on political viewpoints or ideology,” the practice actually existed under the euphemism of “visibility filtering,” according to journalist Bari Weiss, who published the second installment of the so-called ‘Twitter Files’ in a lengthy thread on Thursday night.

“Think about visibility filtering as being a way for us to suppress what people see to different levels. It’s a very powerful tool,” one senior Twitter employee said, while another admitted that “normal people do not know how much we do.

Elon Musk Exposes Malicious Censorship At Twitter  [ 13 December 2022 ]

Twitter CEO Elon Musk on Friday shared the first part of 'The Twitter Files'—a series of tweets by independent journalist and author Matt Taibbi revealing how the platform censored a controversial article on Hunter Biden in 2020. “Here, we go!!" Musk wrote on Twitter while sharing Taibbi's thread based on “thousands of internal documents obtained by sources at Twitter”.................

He then moved on to the most controversial part of the Twitter thread—"How and Why Twitter Blocked the Hunter Biden Laptop Story". “On October 14, 2020, the New York Post published BIDEN SECRET EMAILS, an expose based on the contents of Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop,” he continued............

In the article published in October 2020, New York Post revealed that Hunter Biden introduced his father Joe Biden, then the US Vice President, to a top executive at a Ukrainian energy firm less than a year before the elder Biden had put pressure on government officials in Ukraine into firing a prosecutor who was investigating the company.

Trump, now 76, was banned from Twitter on Jan. 8, 2021, two days after a mob of his supporters breached the Capitol building and interrupted the certification of Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory. According to journalist Bari Weiss, Trump tweeted twice on the morning of the 8th — once to praise those who supported him at the ballot box............

In Weiss’ telling, the first tweet caused an uproar among Twitter’s employees, with one writing in an internal communication: “We have to do the right thing here and ban this account.”

The Twitter Files The Corporate Media Ignores The Biggest Story Of The Decade  [ 18 December 2022 ]
QUOTE
The biggest story of the past decade is not the covid pandemic, the January 6th protests, the war in Ukraine, the BLM riots, or even the stagflationary crisis in the US. 

Behind these major events is another story, one that connects them all together in a disturbing way.  Even more important than the effects of geopolitical and economic chaos is the effect of mass censorship; without the free exchange of information and debate the public remains ignorant.  And if the public remains ignorant, crisis events have an increasing potential to explode.

Public perception of national and international affairs is a key determinant of the outcome of disasters and conflicts.  This is why governments and elitists from around the world often seek to manipulate the ways in which people digest information.  The idea is rather simple – They believe that ‘we the people’ cannot be allowed to come to our own conclusions.  They think we cannot be trusted to develop the “proper” viewpoints and we are not smart enough to understand the implications of governmental decisions.  

In other words, they believe the exact opposite of what is outlined in the US Constitution.  The establishment will give numerous reasons why they need to censor, suppress, spin and misrepresent the facts of any given situation, but in the end the real rationale is that they have a vision for society that is contrary to our foundations.  They have appointed themselves the arbiters of reality to see that vision done.
