The Twitter Files

Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

The Twitter Files

Post by IraHayes »

So Elon upheld his promise to release communications surrounding the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story by the NYP.

LOL, he’s going to release past tweets, essentially opinions. That should prove what? Too funny.

I just googled this topic, wondering what all the excitement was about, and it appears to be twitter employees debating how they should handle a tricky situation (and if they made the right decision) that could be problematic for them because of the political aspect, and because they have a policy of not publishing hacked materials.

And the hacked files? They seem to be naked pictures of Hunter, so essentially revenge porn.

It sounds like a huge case of 'so f*cking what' to me. You also have to wonder what type of strange little person would demand embarrassing pics of Hunter's bare bum be splashed all over social media for them to enjoy again... and again... in the privacy of their home...

Tell me you don’t know anything about Twitter without saying you don’t know anything about Twitter.

Not sure who you're addressing here so I'll assume it's me...

I don't know much at all about twitter. Never used it and have had next to no interest in it until recently, and even now I don't care one way or the other what happens with twitter, I'm just wondering if Musk will sink the company.

If there's something I'm missing I'd be interested in learning more though, please feel free to elaborate.

You sound sincere enough so I will respond.

If you want to know what is going on with Twitter - go to Twitter directly, it is happening in real time.

If you want to know what the Twitter files are about - read them.

If you don’t know about something why are you commenting at all?

It would be unwise for me to dig in about the actual files because it won’t go anywhere here and quite honestly it’s all being done in real time on Twitter where it matters.

Twitter has made every other news source obsolete before it can be printed.

It’s funny to read in print what has happened in real time on Twitter.

A lot of what I say/write is tongue in cheek and shouldn't be taken too seriously but yeah, I'm being sincere.

I'm commenting because I read enough to get (what I think) is an idea of what's happening and like I said, it sounds like a lot of 'so what' to me.

i use twitter daily to follow what is going on in se asia, specifically Burma

Not interested in Hunter's bum
or anything to do with US politics
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST
