.@peterwsinger: in his Maza blog, @kevinroose refers to those who oppose Youtube/MMFA/etc acting as speech commissars as "free-speech absolutists". He's a totalitarian, not a liberal.

.@ranjanxroy: @kevinroose says #SCrowder is "bargain-bin conservative comedian". He thinks MMGA & Vox aren't, not because their Big Biz funding but they're in his circle. He treats a totalitarian who has the elites & Big Biz on his side (eg NYT) as struggling against all odds.

@gaywonk Folks if your mentions are ever too pleasant and sane, I highly recommend writing about @gaywonk and QAnon in the same week.

@kevinroose @gaywonk Damn congrats on those replies

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@beccalew: you're "anti-fascist". Fascists/totalitarians throughout history have tried to quash dissent; the only diff btw Sleeping Giants & Honecker is power & degree. Like them, @kevinroose is strongly pro-censorship. Are you, or are you a real liberal?

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@MattRosoff: the main point of the @CaseyNewton blog @kevinroose hypes is censorship. Mozilla's trying to get YT to not recommend "harmful content", they do the same from a different angle. None of them are liberals; they're totalitarians. And, they *help* Putin's goals.

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@BriInMN: Facebook allegedly running "sweatshops" is definitely a big story, but Zuckerberg controlling what 100s of millions can and can't see is much, much more important. @kevinroose is on the wrong side of that: like other supposed journos he strongly supports censorship.

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@steveray cheers @jordaneisley thinking the Wikipedia @partisangirl page shows she (presumably) should be censored. Did Jimmy Wales admit he used WP's rules to lie to their readers, yes or no?

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@justin_hart: I don't think playing good cop works with censors like @kevinroose. Those who knowingly push censorship usually can't be reasoned with, they have to be discredited. Let me know if being nice to any of the 100s of pro-censorship "journalists" ever works.

You'd call deliberate deception via omission "bad faith", right? MT @jere7my [@kevinroose shouldn't get comment from those he writes about like any real journalist would] Because [Alex Jones etc are] bad faith? Demonstrably?

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@ceciliakang: @sheeraf blogs that Twitter says disinfo from the USA is increasing. Putin wants more censorship in USA & you/Sheera/Twitter serve Putin's interests just like Trump does. Twitter also isn't credible: they lie to millions. See the real data at my top tweet.

From @24aheaddotcom_
Lil' Honeckers @kevinroose & @awinston blog "Far-Right Internet Groups Listen for Trump’s Approval, and Often Hear It". It's easy to show them wrong, but those groups or #MAGA in general can't. It's easy to show Dilbert wrong, but all they can do is smear. #idiocracy

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@kevinroose: in July I told you about the real data at my pinned tweet that shows how heavily Twitter censors all kinds of users incl ~20% to 50% of the replies to Trump officials. Twitter is lying to millions, & Trump/Parscale/GOP spread misinfo. When will you call them on it?

From @24aheaddotcom_
That "big story" is full of errors. Even after Sheeraf's very low-key correction, she's trying to gaslight people into thinking RWN was started in 2009. Check the Internet Archive, she & Roose lack journalistic ethics to do it. MT @versharma MT kevinroose: Big story by sheeraf
