Sorry for interrupting, Derek, but could you clarify by what you mean who is Bessemer? Because my idea of a Bessemer is that it's actually an outdated typo of neoliberal ideology and post war Rand corporation diction of what a Besner is and I'm just wondering if that's what you're actually saying or if that was a slight error. Sorry for interrupting, just wanted a quick point of clarification.

Derek Davidson is actually funny as well as smart, so out of the two of them he's the pick. I think he's probably pretty busy though (his substack is good if you like that kind of thing though)

Musk gave the documents to Taibbi and Greenwald seemingly. Unsurprising since both became parts of the right wing culture war media who had shreds of credibility still.

I mean neither have any credibility anymore, but they are formerly credible which puts them both above people like Andy Ngo who are the next closest thing the right has to 'journalism'

There is a story here of massive censorship, media complicity, and government overreach but it is the same story we have had since spanish-american war 9/11. Nothing that has been revealed is new.

Taibi's fake shock seems a little funny. Like I figured there wouldn't be much to it, but yeah, so powerful people with the ear of the company can get messages shut down. Everyone with a blue check said that though.

Like, drat, I know at least one comedian joked that his favorite thing to do when he was bored and loving around on Twitter was to piss people off until they said one of the naughty words at him, because swearing at a blue check was a surefire way to get a heavy suspension or ban.

Also, lol that Twitter completely hosed up the thread even more than usual. Had to go to his account to read over it.

back then they didn't have good nutritional knowledge so LBJ actually only had a 6" dick, adjusted for today that's like an 8" dick but he's dead so we just let it be.

Surprisingly this is not because of twitter loving up

This is because Taibbi accidentally broadcasted TwitterJack's personal email address in the now-deleted tweets

It apparently had the word "pizza" in it
