[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jacobin and The Nation, taking into consideration all the criticisms, think the twitter files are important.  Among other things, they are reasonably concerned that the entanglements revealed in the files could one day be turned against the left.[/quote]

And we don't have any assurances whatsoever that Twitter wouldn't be weaponized against the left by Musk.  So far all we've seen is a handful of selected, out-of-context and extremely one-sided releases weaponized against the government and against the Biden campaign.  No evidence that those mechanisms have in fact been dismantled - and, given the termination of a huge number of staff it's become far less transparent to know.  And meanwhile, as has been pointed out, many other facts are NOT being focused on by Taibbi and others.[/quote]

Huh?[/quote]

Huh what? Musk has shown himself to be a hypocrite on free speech, the #twitterfiles have been shown to be highly selective, and what convincing assurances of any kind have we ever gotten out of Musk, and what can we even believe from him, given how erratic he's been.

What are we supposed to believe?[/quote]
