Censorship Is Twitter’s Fundamental Role

Who’s banned from Twitter? President Trump for “inciting violence,” despite the opposite being true. He was a threat to the status quo.

Who’s allowed on Twitter? Nancy Pelosi, Kamala Harris, and Rep. Ayanna Pressley—after encouraging violent riots in 2020. Even the Taliban, Iran’s supreme leader, and Cuba’s dictator are allowed on Twitter.

Why does Twitter censor? Twitter isn’t dedicated to moderating speech—they’re dedicated to protecting the establishment through censorship. Elon Musk’s vision of free speech threatens that.

Choosing censorship over profit: Musk wants to buy Twitter at a 38% markup. The deal is a no-brainer for shareholders, investors, and anyone focused on business.

However, Twitter’s leadership is focused on thwarting the deal and losing billions because what’s at stake isn’t profit or even a tech company; it’s a censorship apparatus operated by those in power.
