Biden killed a family of 7 (and lied about it - called them terrorists) but is allowed on Elon-Twitter. Alex Jones (worst case) lied about Sandy Hook and is banned for life… (twitter.com)

You know, I had forgotten about that aid worker and his family who they vaporized in the last days of Afghanistan.

You've got to love how "it was an accident/my heart was in the right place but I made a mistake" is a legitimate defense whenever the government screws up and gets somebody killed, but it's not a valid defense against any criminal charge if you're a regular citizen.

"It was an accident" only after screaming "That goatfucker and his family deserved to die!" while doing the slit-across-the-neck gesture. Ok perhaps a slight exaggeration but I wouldn't doubt he did that in private. These people are sick.

Hillary's emails did reveal a twisted and cavalier attitude about employing drone strikes. (Forgot if she was joking about the idea of drone striking Assange or Snowden)

She wasn't. Several other warhawks wanted to do the same.

She was just feeling out the room. If there had been support for it, she would've gone for it, 100%.

"It was an accident" only after

It's the kind of event that gets labelled as "Mistakes were made on both sides" where no actual responsibility is claimed.

He's really said more about himself and what his tolerances are than anything about what Alex did. He's admitted to being the sole moderator of content. That's fine, it's his house - but there is no middle ground here. Can't wash his hands of some decisions by claiming "Vox Populi", but take a hands on approach for others. He's the publisher. EVERYTHING is his speech now, and he should be open to legal liability for anything conveyed on the platform.

On a personal level, we also can assume Musk is fine with any disgusting vile content that does get through the censors. Not "Oh I vehemently disagree, but I allow everyone to speak." No he's literally in favor of "muh anti-semites", terrorists, MAPs, pornographers, drug dealers, leaders of enemy states, brutal dictators, and lawyers using his service to get their message out. Because otherwise he would censor them too, no? It's just that AJ happens to be worse than all those.

Or... let's breath in that Copium for a moment and believe this is a 4d chess gambit, wherein he will eventually trick the ADL and his moderating council to make that exact argument.

"You moderated Jones. There's no excuse for you to allow vile anti-semites a platform."

"Good point. I'm unbanning AJ."

How about another excuse: He's playing "Good Cop Bad Cop." When his moderation council quietly unbans AJ in the future, this display of virtue lets him act all disgusted and still get invited to fancy celebrity parties to say "Fuck it, you all know I wanted to keep the bastard off but I don't interfere in moderation decisions."

I'm not giving him the benefit of the doubt. Pretty much every "free speech absolutist" has proven themselves a phony.

I think he's just trying to rile up everybody with these imperious moves.

Then he shows the advertisers the numbers are up with more engagement and they have to justify to their stakeholders why they would pull ads.

Maybe. It does seem odd that he would publicly engage in vacuous appeals to emotion against a community he knows would destroy him with logic. I mean, how does a supposedly intelligent person get owned by fucking shoe0nhead without it being on purpose?

The best part about it is that no matter what his motivations were, Elon exploited the death of children for personal gain. :D

The redhead “snl” writer with an onlyfans offered a bj to whoever punched Sandmann in the face on twitter after Covington. That’s an actual crime and she has never been banned.

So Elon is operating on the idea that Sandy Hook actually happened as it did. That's a mistake on his behalf.

Yeah I haven't looked into it much but what kills me is that nobody ever holds that literally two-faced parent responsible.

He comes out on live tv all joking and smiles, then when he's told he's on puts on the "I'm so sad" face. From what I can tell this is the root cause or a huge portion of what Alex was on about and why people took it to heart.

Got a source on that? I've not seen that yet.

Here you go

Nerves maybe but he looks like an actor. I didn't watch Jones so I don't know if he was going off before this or not, but to me this seems to be the root cause.

edit: apparently there's a longer clip with more inappropriate behavior, but you get the idea.

Because one has the backing of ALL institutions and media, the other has the ENTIRE ire of every institution and media and the eye of Sauron on any of his associates.

I can't tell if they are being shortsighted idiots, live by principles alone regardless of consequences or actually trying to destroy Twitter and/or Elon by trying to goad him to bring Alex back right now. Alex said it himself, he knows why he isn't being brought back, Twitter is way too vulnerable right now to external threats (Google/Apple app store) and internal threats. Be glad Elon was in a position to bring back Project Veritas right now as that'll help a lot.

Even if Alex was mistaken, it still isn't a "lie."

But he was right, so that doesn't even matter.

Here's a funny thing the Warren's the couple who's life was shaped The Conjuring films. Their museum contians a demonic idol from the Sandy Hook area where a known Satanist lived.

Children are a premium resources in their dark worships. So this all may be even more messed up than we have been lead to belive even from the Alex Jones camp.

Just a thought.

To play devil's advocate, Biden didn't kill anyone on twitter. Alex has (presumably) posted his Sandy Hook stuff there.

Insert the funny adage about presuming here

He rarely said anything about Sandy Hook being full of crisis actors on his show, let alone on twitter. Its not even something he personally believes.

The Sandy Hook Hoax stuff was actually pushed by a guest on Alex's show, this guy. a very famous CIA psychiatrist/handler:

https://twitter.com/StevePieczenik https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Pieczenik

You may remember David Knight, used to have a show on infowars. He was fired by Alex for not letting Pieczenik push his Sandy Hook theories on his show.

rarely

Him doing it once on Twitter is enough to make the point that the comparison between Biden's droning outside of Twitter and Alex's claim on it isn't the same for violating whatever twitter ban rules, since ideally Twitter would only ban for what is posted in it.
