Twitter censors WSJ article on Kim Klacik, ‘A Black Lives Matter Republican’
NOQ Report ^ | OCTOBER 21, 2020 | Scott Boyd

Posted on 10/21/2020 6:43:56 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

There is nothing more terrifying to a Democrat than a person of color who refuses to abide by the leftist narrative. That’s why Kimberly Klacik is such a threat to their narrative. It’s also the reason Twitter is censoring an article about her from the Wall Street Journal.

While some may note that “censorship” is too strong of a classification since Twitter isn’t completely blocking the article, it’s fair because it reduces the reach dramatically. The story has been Tweeted by a dozen or so people and retweeted by hundreds. Considering the subject matter, it’s very likely that without the speed bump they put on the article for sharing, it had a chance of going viral. Now, not so much.

Twitter has faced plenty of scrutiny for their handling of the Hunter Biden bombshell from the NY Post. The fourth most circulated newspaper in the country still does not have access to their Twitter account a week after the story ran. Twitter has also faced potential political actions as Senators Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, and Lindsey Graham are working to subpoena Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey? Instead of backing down, Twitter is doubling down.

Did Twitter get nervous about accusations of censorship or threats from Senators?

If they did, they're more nervous about Joe Biden losing.

They're continuing to censor, doubling down on what they allow on their "platform."

It isn’t always the overt censorship that has the most impact. Sometimes, just suppressing a story is enough to keep it from going viral. Kim Klacik’s story is a blockbuster, but Twitter’s keeping it out of sight.

If Trump doesn’t win, this blatant censorship of anyone opposing Socialist Democrats will become “the new normal.”

I hope the President makes this a big issue in the final days of the campaign.

Censorship is electoral interference, it is un-American, and it is totally unacceptable.

The free market is not a suicide pact.

The old Soviet Union wishes it had censors as efficient as Twitter.

Twitter and the CCP go together like peas and carrots.

During the Cold War there was no more friendlier to the Soviet Union than the Democrat Party. That’s why it makes me laugh when the Democrats accuse the Russians of interfering in our elections. The Democrats are in the Russians and the Chinese back pockets!

Twitter is a small, noisy, island. A much bigger world is outside their sphere.

The Tech companies use China to test social policies to control the population and then they import the policies that work into America and other Western nations.

I was sent over there a few times, with the last time not in Baltimore per se. the other times were around the Inner Harbor.

Didn’t see the urban blight but wasn’t near or in it

All that money given over time. You’d think they’d get wise.

That senate committee should bring Kim Klacik in to testify ahead of Dorsey.

Good God. What’s next? Censorship of back articles from The Ladies Home Journal?

It’s funny because I finally started hanging out on Twitter 2 weeks ago (Scott Adams).

Now all I see is tyranny and censorship from them.

I think I joined at the wrong time.

But that’s good for us to see. Twitter is the new Titanic.
