.@wgnyc: hey Wally, what's the #Twitter obsession with @WillOremus? Is he your test case for "healthy conversations" aka silencing those who dare speak back against Will Oremus? Is it just a case of lil' Honeckers flocking together?

Today was a perfect beach day, by which I mean it was cloudy and chilly and no one was there. https://t.co/eJ15bD8q1S

.@justinhendrix: @WillOremus strongly supports Twitter censorship, just to reduce the #s of those showing him wrong. That's despite the fact that TWTR heavily censors libs replying to Trump officials and those replying to dictators around the world. Is that liberal to you?

Is it healthy for me to accurately point out you two are lil' Honeckers helping crooked U.S. pols & also Putin (who wants U.S. speech restrictions)? RT @Larakate We're sorry. RT @WillOremus Help, I logged off Twitter for a bit and a healthy conversation broke out in my mentions

.@lizkelley: you replied to the worthless, anodyne, cutesy @Larakate reply to @WillOremus with more of the same. That's a "healthy conversation" to those like Oremus. It's like smoking mercury to the rest of the U.S.: he needs to be challenged on his anti-American ideas.

.@bengrosser: WillOremus strongly supports censorship, & just to reduce his already-small # of mentions. Also, have you figured out how to deal with Twitter's obfuscated CSS? They're hiding the "LowQuality" etc data. If you figure it out, contribute it to my pinned tweet.

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@mcwm: hey Mike, did you see the WillOremus blogs where he supports censorship just to reduce his very few mentions? Twitter heavily censors dissent to Trump officials & foreign despots, but all Will cares about is reducing his 3 mentions to 2. What about you?

@24AheadDotCom_ twitter is a private company and can censor whoever it wants
24AheadDotCom_'s avatar
From @24aheaddotcom_
.@mcwm plays ye ol' "twitter is a pvt co" canard. TwitterGov actively encourages govt to use TWTR for official business. Those like chpalerts & 100s of elected officials do exactly that. Then, TWTR decides who can talk back. See my pinned tweet for examples of what they do.

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@defcon_5: Trump doesn't play 12d chess, but Putin does. No doubt he knew he'd kick off a "bot hunt", aka censorship aka showing that the U.S. system doesn't work & sowing distrust. @WillOremus is very pro-censorship & unwittingly helps Putin by pushing censorship.

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@StevenLevy: hey Steve, did you see the Oremus blog where he supported censorship just to reduce his (already low) mentions? Twitter heavily censors replies from libs to Trump officials (eg, Ajit Pai). Oremus fully supports that, just for extremely minor personal gain.

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@JHWeissmann: did you read the @WillOremus blog where he supports censorship, just to reduce his mentions? All the people who've died for open debate don't really matter that much just as long as Will can hide from criticism.

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@gussent: Twitter heavily censors all kinds of users & about 20% to 50% of the replies to Trump officials: see my top tweet. @WillOremus is a sleazy lil Honecker, putting avoiding dissent in his few mentions well ahead of concerns about Trump officials avoiding dissent.

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@_Sandra_R_: a couple decades ago, liberals were all about questioning authority & holding leaders accountable. @WillOremus is the opposite: he's an establishment hack - employed by Bezos - who tries to harm those who question authority. Be a real liberal. #Slate
