        Honestly? Yes. Known woman beater, accused international sex trafficker, and cuck enthusiast P Diddy couldn’t wait to get in on the best PR platform and trafficking recruitment database in centuries.

        That cunt has always been a talentless hack, hitching his wagon to something bigger, hoping to make that paper. No surprise here, at all.

    “Everyone was thinking how is it possible that Twitter (X)’s stock is plummeting, advertisers are breaking contracts, and no one is doing anything about it. I mean, that’s a direct loss to investors.

    “But what everyone overlooked was the fact that investors didn’t care about profits, they needed a platform to promote their narratives, such as: supporting Putin and Russia; lobbying to freeze the war in Ukraine; taking the Ukrainian agenda out of the top news; the righteousness of Hamas, etc.”

    I suspected his and putins corespondence had something to do with twitter. My guess was Putin supplied Russian trolls to him for his pump and dump scheems, to manufacture hype around any stock he wanted. Then he bought Twitter to have control over the would be evidence. Just my little conspiracy theory though.

    Well, that should not shock anyone at all. Making Xitter even worse than it already was can surely benefit the right wing and Putin - and these days, what is the difference?

      Bro the author of the article didn’t say that. That’s a direct quote of what someone posted on Twitter. You’re misrepresenting the context in which that line was presented.

        I’d say give them a chance to reply and edit before saying they’re purposefully misrepresenting.

        Good clarification though

          Considering the lack of edit at this point, I am leaning towards “intentionally misleading”

        That site seems to be using the same spectrum that the corporate media itself uses. And as “everyone knows”, the corporate media is liberal, you guys!!! The corporate media tells all of us that all the time, even though it makes no freaking sense to think that a corporation is going to be liberal in any meaningful sense of that term. Just believe it, though, since “everyone knows” this is a tautology.

        LOL!!!
