Free speech only scares people whose house is built on a pack of lies.

You'd probably enjoy this[^]. Taibbi was the one who called Goldman Sachs a vampire squid, so the hypocrisy of those gnashing their teeth over Musk's bid has to be over the top for Taibbi to have written this.

Awesome, and NAILS it.
We have not had "free" speech in a very long time.
Funny, when it was only newsletters with no real reach... Speech was freer.
Once we got the internet... And free could be truly free... It's amazing that companies shut it down.
Now, if it turned out that ANY pressure to shut it down, came in the form of GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS (ie, we will continue to pay you for the portals you give us to SPY on citizens, but you must also shut down "dangerous" speech)... Then I believe this would constitute an "Actual Conspiracy".
Dr. Shiva, for example, showed in his court case, that his Twitter was shadow-banned (something we were told was NOT a thing by the CEO just months earlier)... And it was done by a PUBLIC EMPLOYEE of the state, who did not like Dr. Shivas views/complaints/speech. To me, this is collusion. But if you can show it happened in ONE other place, and you can show that the Public Employees knew how to ask for this power... Then I believe you have a "Conspiracy" criminal charge.
But good luck with that in todays America... Or is it Amerika already!

True, but back then I wasn't exposed to people's newsletters about fake elections, flat earth, tracking chips in vaccines, and hoax pandemics.

I think a lot more people will start respecting him if he buys it and just shuts it down.

Would you have the same outlook if it were George Soros attempting to take Twitter private? 🤔

Shall we suspend the CCC until 19-04-2022 ?

Google: Easter Monday is a public holiday in 116 nations throughout the world, including Australia, Austria, Germany, Egypt, Ireland, United Kingdom, Spain, Ghana, Fiji, France, Hong Kong, Italy, Kenya, Poland, Russia, and South Africa
That's over half of the nations of the world:
Google: There are 195 countries in the world today. This total comprises 193 countries that are member states of the United Nations and 2 countries that are non-member observer states: the Holy See and the State of Palestine.
So, that's probably a good reason to suspend.
But I'm good either way.

There's a reason that's not a member of the United Nations.
Psst! It's not a country.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I knew it was an easy one, but 5 minutes?
You're up tomorrow, or maybe Monday, or whenever we resume the CCC after Easter.
