A mask off Jack Dorsey went after CNN in a series of tweets in which the Twitter founder accused the legacy media network of deliberately creating division in society.
The controversy started when CNN’s Brian Stelter tweeted an article accusing Fox News host Tucker Carlson of “always selling the same thing…selling doubt.”
“And you all are selling hope?” Dorsey responded.
and you all are selling hope?

“They’re selling truth, which is hope-agnostic,” Democrat pollster Spiers tweeted. “It’s supposed to inform you, not make you feel some kind of way.”
However, Dorsey wasn’t having any of it and quickly shot back, “I know this from being on the streets of Ferguson during the protests and watching them try to create conflict and film it causing the protestors to chant “fuck CNN.”

When Dorsey was accused of “defending Tucker Carlson” (oh no, the horror), the Twitter founder responded that he was “not defending a thing” and simply “holding up a mirror.”

Dorsey has been more vocal than ever before in recent days following the Twitter board, which he is about to step down from, desperately attempting to stop Elon Musk buying the platform.
On Saturday, Dorsey said the board’s attempt to block the takeover is typical of tactics that have “consistently been the dysfunction of the company.”
It’s very apparent that Dorsey has had a moral awakening in recent years in which he realizes how the regime has fully seized control of Twitter and weaponized it to monopolize truth and silence dissenting voices.
Dorsey has bumped his head somehow?
Did he lay off the bong for awhile?
He must have gone to St. Barts, trippin’ on acid and hangin’ with spider monkeys. Changed his whole perspective on shit...

It seems overly repetitious, if you ask me.

He’s wetting himself over what he promoted?
Begging to be banned from Twitter if Dorsey keeps this up.
The left has gone too far, and is turning off too many people. Simple as that.
Maybe on the same rock that he crawled out from under . . .
Uber awesome acid apparently.
Dorsey is a phony hypocrite pretending to be above the fray. I hope Musk manages to take over Twitter, and I never have to hear anything from Dorsey again.
Talk about irony, Dorsey banned from Twitter would be ultimate.

Good question! I’ve seen this goofy kind of writing for quite a while - when “tweets” are being quoted - and wondered if it’s some kind of “style-book” requirement.
Dorsey used to be the king of left wing social media censorship. He must have been smoking some of Elon’s strong weed lately. If that’s the result, I’ll take a hit, Elon.
Looks like a real CYA move by someone who just isn't woke enough for the woke crowd. Thanks Red Badger.
“Talk about irony, Dorsey banned from Twitter would be ultimate.”
Dorsey may be setting up the Twitter board to ban him from posting on Twitter.
He may tell the world a lot of about the really dark side of Twitter.
Don’t believe a word he says. If he didn’t say anything at the time, and said nothing publicly until now, then he condoned it. And he allowed, and condoned so much more for his own personal greed and power. You think this guy just got a conscience? Screw this phony.
Akin to Charles Manson apologizing years later which he didn’t.
Twitter’s banning the NYPost with its expose about Hunter Biden’s laptop may have had more negative effect on votes for Trump by undecided voters in 2020 than that of any other single media action. Jack Dorsey is a big phony.
