Yesterday, after America's biggest tech giant bosses were grilled by a US senate committee, a tweet was posted by Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
In it, he asked: 'Why is it a crime to raise doubts about the Holocaust?'
Under normal circumstances, one of the world's most powerful leaders directly questioning the very existence of a Nazi-orchestrated genocide of over six million Jews during WWII is the kind of hideously inflammatory statement that a major American newspaper like the New York Post would have wanted to report on and respond to.
Not least because New York is home to 1.1 million Jews, the largest Jewish community anywhere in the world outside of Israel.
But the Post couldn't respond.
Not on the same platform, anyway.
Because Twitter has disgracefully locked out the Post's account for two weeks after it reported allegations of financial impropriety surrounding Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden's son Hunter based on the contents of his laptop.
So, Khamenei was able to spew his vile Holocaust-denying filth to his 836,000 followers without any fear of factual rebuttal by a newspaper representing many of the people who would find his comments most offensive.
Just as he was able to tweet on previous occasions that Israel's a 'cancerous growth' which must be 'uprooted and destroyed', and this direct threat: 'We will support and assist any nation or any group anywhere who opposes and fights the Zionist regime, and we do not hesitate to say this.'
Why has Twitter allowed him to do all this without any form of censorship?
The company's boss Jack Dorsey told senators yesterday: 'We did not find those to violate our terms of service because we considered them 'saber rattling,' which is part of the speech of world leaders in concert with other countries.'

Dumb-nitude
Kissing up to Islam is Dumb-nitude,
Pardon my language if you think I’m rude,
But Dumb-nitude is just how quislings roll!

The author assumes that the honchos at Twitter believe the Holocaust actually happened.
Sorry for the last ping, wrong thread
Did you get a load of Jack Dorsey? Guy looks like a cross between a wino and a resident of an asylum. He is utterly biased and irresponsible, a libtard bum.
Twitter continuously declares itself a PUBLISHER on a daily basis, I fail to see how section 230 prevents their Prosecution and Civil Liability.
...”Did you get a load of Jack Dorsey? Guy looks like a cross between a wino and a resident of an asylum. He is utterly biased and irresponsible, a libtard bum.”...
He is a child. Twitter, FB, Google are all run by children and it says a lot about a nation that would allow their generation to totally commandeer the freedom of speech in it’s population, just because they are tech geniuses. It is like turning over your car keys to your brilliant 8 year old because he/she understands how to build a car.
The analogy I like to give is relying on a 4-year old with a 23rd-century supercomputer to make your decisions for you. Intelligence doesn’t imply wisdom or even rationality. Your intellect doesn’t hold sway over you decision making. You can choose not to rely on it. And while I’m sure these people are spectacularly successful, I’m not even sure they’re spectacularly intelligent, “Tech” label or not.
Wait a year and Twitter will allow “Trump killed more people than Hitler during covid” Just say no to Twitter and FB
bkmk
Twitter ‘updated their policies’, but still keeps the block on the NYPost.
