Twitter files 7, Aspen Institute Hunter Biden blah blah

[roscoeroscoe]

My right-wing friends are all going crazy about today's outrage, a supposed table top exercise at the Aspen Institute a month before the Post published the first story about the Hunter Biden laptop; supposedly wargaming out how to deal with such a media 'bombshell.'

Have you seen this, any thoughts on the reality of this? My nutzoid Army pals are going off on this on the book of the Faces.

1. Twitter files 7 isn't from today

But Twitter prepared for election shenanigans with input from the FBI for what to look for due to what happened in 2016. Of course, they'll use examples that come close to what happened in the past.

That doesn't mean the FBI knew about Giuliani's october surprise in advance and prepared social media companies to suppress that story. It just happened to be that the story of Hunter Biden leaving his laptop at a blind repair shop guy who happened to give it to Giuliani had all the signs of a so called hack and leak. That's why Twitter proceeded with caution. You will find absolutely nothing in the twitter files that proves that the FBI and Twitter coordinated to bury that story with the knowledge that everything about it was true but you will find the most outrageous interpretations by the nutjobs.

The author Shellenberger, like all the other twitter files authors, is extremely dishonest in how he frames the issue. You have to check every source he links because it often disproves what he claims. Twitter files aren't about transparency, they are pure propaganda. An example: Check tweet 45 of those twitter files where Shellenberger makes it appear as if Twitter wants to thank the FBI for working together to censor the Hunter Biden story. But when you check the linked e-mail, it was a thank you note for the cooperation to prevent acts of domestic terrorism on polling stations and for preventing kidnapping plots of Governors.
