Someone asked former CEO Jack Dorsey: How did you let it get so bad at Twitter?
Twitter/X ^ | May 8 | @jack

@TopoGigio_sol

Jack, honest question.

How did you let it get so bad at Twitter? How did it become so captured with out you being able to step in and fix it.

The algo needs help here on X, but directionally much better than it was, as a platform

@jack

only way to truly “fix it” is with open protocols. corporations can build upon them too.

@wallstsavage80

Would be nice if you answered the original question without rhetoric Jack

It’d be refreshing to read it

@jack

i've answered so many times. if it was "captured" it was by the advertising model and wall st incentives. could not be public like that. pretty basic.

@john_ennis_btc

Why do you pretend that you were powerless in that situation?

Clear and obvious censorship was happening and you were the CEO

@john_at_swan

Twitter spent years as a hyper partisan censorship machine while you were at the top of it.

Talk is cheap, and you were nowhere to be found when courage was needed

It was probably encultured by the intelligence communities, who funded Twitter, then it fed upon itself by liberals running it.

Someone in the thread mentioned the CIA.

People are still reflective about it and pretty angry. Good.

I believe that any of the social media that went from zero to billions of dollars in a very short is probably an intelligence asset. They are a great means to collect data on people and correlate the data, so they can put a trace on everybody.

The kicker is that whatever is on your social media account, you put it there. The agencies didn’t have to spend a dime, outside infrastructure, putting a trace on you because you traced yourself.

Gee, maybe he was paid off like the rest of the corrupt slugs who provide a media government service?

Your three options ..as the big cheese...is to put the responsibility on someone else..OR...option 2..claim you’ll look into it...and then totally do nothing.
.OR, option 3..as a last resort..actually do something to address the issue.

This whole video by Bill Whittle is brilliantly well done and well worth watching: (The Stolen Election, Pt. 2- Hiding Biden Laptop Scandal Reveals More Frightening Social Plan)

But this one part of that video is interesting to watch in context of this article. (he discusses all the platforms, not just Twitter):

(Specifically targets Jack Dorsey)

I don’t believe him.

I was a very late joiner of Twitter (Musk) BUT I clearly recall something. My work had a training session and it featured Twitter as a way to collaborate with other professionals. they had a live stream of Dorsey and other Twitter CEOs talk about their services. This was way, way back probably when it was just getting big.

Any way he and all his CEOs just oozed what we would call “Woke” today, social Justice and all that rot.

That’s why I never joined Twitter until Musk took it. I feel it went the way exactly as Dorsey planned it.

Dorsey should be tried for treason and hanged. He’s on the list.

I remember starting out on Twitter in 2007. It was mostly for
technology geeks.

Pretty cool back then.

I believe that. Even now, when someone here posts a link to YouTube and I go there, I frequently have to sit thru a 2+ minute commercial or two before I can view it. When I view a YouTube video thru the app on my TV, it doesn’t happen. Sure, I still get slammed with a lot of commercials, but not at the very beginning. I know the video posters are doing it, but not at the very beginning. Video roadblocks on YouTube.

Try here?

Wow look at this guys. He is getting MORE heat in comments.

Example:

@WarlordDilley

Shut the f*ck up, you goddamn hypocrite scumbag.

You tried to bankrupt me for YEARS because of my political opinions.

I was a struggling single dad and author, but because I was a Trump supporter, you kept deleting me.
