Twitter vs JRE

Post by DBTrek »

I know the Joe Rogan Experience has its own thread, but this episode with the Twitter execs contained enough content to warrant its own thread. It covered a lot of topics that have surface in other threads on the MHF, which I'll highlight below.

#1 Twitter explains why "Learn to Code" was deemed suspension-worthy:

Tim Pool chewed up Twitters lame excuses and spit them out. Twitter folks were pretty damn quiet and on the defense the entire time. They really couldn't explain the overall deplatforming of dissident voices. While they gave their little gotcha reasons why this person or that was banned, they couldn't speak to the overall trends and weight of what Pool refuted their claims with.

Vic Berger calling Tim Pool an Alt-Right lapdog like he didn't give Trump free promotion.

I didn’t get all the way through it last night, but yes. Pool was running the table on them for the first half.

Twitter scored big when they cited the UN Human Rights standards - nobody was ready for that one. They reframed their entire position there.

The question is why didn’t Twitter explicitly state that that was their position from the beginning of the platform? They could have avoided a lot of headaches.
