[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a neocon but my understanding is that Hamilton 68 represented a bunch of liberal “intel” leaders who outright lied about Russian trolls to support their liberal agendas.

I will never believe another intelligence official who also happens to be a Dem.[/quote]

What about Republican intelligence officials?  Maybe you already forgot about the Republican Senate Intelligence Committee, who investigated the matter, yielding a 5-volume report on Russian interference, collusion and influence operations.  Volume 5 alone was 1000 pages.  https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/512613-five-takeaways-from-final-senate-intel-russia-report/

Odd that so far, absolutely nothing in Taibbi's reporting reflects ANY of those documented findings. [/quote]

This thread is about Twitter, and how executives there knew through reverse engineering the names of real people, real Americans, who the public was told were Russian bots. They were not. And how those Twitter executives felt they did not have a choice regarding whether or not they banned those people due to governmental pressure.

As PP said, one can’t believe anything coming out of intelligence, DOJ, Congress, etc, regarding Russia, Trump, etc. It’s clear that even leftists at Twitter knew and were intimidated into complying. I used to believe that Yoel Roth was one of the hugest issues with Twitter and didn’t believe Musk when he said that Roth was actually trying to fight this. The release of these emails shows me that indeed, Roth WAS pushing back hard, but when you have the DOJ and intelligence breathing down your neck, it’s a dire situation to be in. [/quote]

And AGAIN, you're ignoring how Twitter WAS in fact manipulated by a whole range of influence operations, not just the server farms running bots and entire office complexes full of human employees in Russia, but all of the other purveyors of fake news, propaganda, et cetera operating worldwide.  And, continues to be.[/quote]
