Jack Dorsey is absolutely an enemy, but it's doubtful he actually had the power to stop Twitter from becoming what it is. If he had tried to allow correct pronouns for troons, he would have been canceled and forced to step down.

Twitter went public in 2013. There is no way he would have been allowed to remain as CEO if he pushed back on people such as Vijaya Gadde.

Spez: Some examples of canceling CEOs: John Gibson, CEO of Tripwire Interactive, removed for tweeting support of Texas abortion ban; John Schattner, founder of Papa Johns Pizza, removed for saying nigger on a conference call; Brendan Eich, CEO of Mozzila, removed for donating to a campaign against gay marriage.

Papa John was removed for saying nigger in a non racist context.

This. I went to a tech conference where Alexis Ohanian and Brent Herd were headliners. The whole conference was about how to get different rounds of funding. Basically... how to sell your tech company. These "founders" don't really own their companies very long, and have to sway with the investors to keep their position. Yes, Jack is to blame, but it would have happened without him.

The "trans lobby" is just the mask that the deep state wears. Im willing to bet they'd have done something worse to him than cancelling if he didnt obey

I think the biggest factor is people's refusal to adopt new technology, which led to post-industrialization, which led to death of communities, which led to most of the issues faced in the world today.

You take an enlightened view. We can hate on Dorsey for being a creepy soy faggot all we want but at the end of the day he, his god forsaken platform and our decaying civilisation are only the result of ideas and processes taken to their logical ends.

It's also the age old question: If Hitler wasn't around, would World War 2 never have happened?

Mandating "correct" pronoun usage is separate from the technical and business reasons why twitter isn't an open standard/protocol like email or IRC. Jack Dorsey absolutely had the authority to mandate twitter be an open platform, but then his company would have been less attractive to VC firms and may never have gone public. He wanted to maximize his chances of a big payout, so that's the choice he made. That's not a "capitalism" problem; that's a "Jack Dorsey" problem.

Yea, he isn't some kind of victim who had to be pressured into doing what he did. He was either fully on board or a driving force behind it.

One theory is that western spy agencies infiltrated twitter and forced their hand.

This explains why NATO employees censored the_donald and why the trustedNewsInitiative banned all facts that promote vaccine hesitancy (even if true)

Something like 2% of users, who are overwhelmingly American, create 80% of the tweets.

Western intelligence agencies are merely tools of the puppet masters.

Dorsey is probably a pedo and he knows if he displeases his masters and if his website isn't facilitating them to control the narrative he will be arrested and someone who will can be in his job within the hour. The people who work for the CIA or the Atlantic council or whoever know they'll be suicided or outed as a pedo if they don't do their jobs for the same masters.

Why would they need to even bother? Look at how stupid people were with other social media platforms like Facebook. Zuckerberg mentioned he didn't even need to ask for personal info because the users were handing it over so willingly. Same thing applies with Twitter users giving the world a live feed of their foremost thoughts without any consideration to the consequences.

So spy agencies could have set up social media companies as a massive entrapment plan but really all that was needed was to give the world a microphone and sit back while all the unhinged thoughts of humanity spilled out.

You know it's probably irrelevant what he stands for even if he is a hypocrite. It's quite obvious to me most of these CEO's are scared of vocal activist types who permeate their workforces (although probably don't actually produce anything) and that they are being leaned on from above to set the agenda for what their platforms do. Dorsey could be easily #MeToo'd or arrested for child pornography or pedophilia or whatever else degenerate that he likes to partake in.

The small era of freedom such as it was online which completely ended in 2017. My guess is the only reason this freedom existed is that the elites were caught off guard at just what a powerful subversive force the internet was. When I first got online in the 90's the internet was for nerds. No one gave a fuck in normieville. Now everyone is on here and now its as shitty as normieville.

The elites in Europe 500 years ago probably didn't hear about Gutenberg and his printing press at first and then probably thought it was a gimmick which would never catch on. Then the elites shit themselves and realised it must be totally controlled to prevent any kind of genuine opposition forming to their agenda. In the case of the printing press they couldn't really stop it. New elites had to rise up and adapt.
