Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey spoke out Wednesday about his company's decision last week to ban President Trump from its platform. "I do not celebrate or feel pride in our having to ban @realDonaldTrump, or how we got here," Dorsey began a lengthy Twitter thread.

"We faced an extraordinary and untenable circumstance, forcing us to focus all of our actions on public safety.

Empty words from a empty head.
Screw em, divest yourself from all of these companies capping on the constitution and the country.
There are always alternatives to these companies, do the leg work and find them.
Anyone even clicking on one of their links is a back stabbing sellout.
Biden’s band of merry oligarchs are going to start feeling the heat worldwide.
I don't recall ever reading about the Democrat who got suspended.
Ya think, Jack?
Now that you have shown your colors, you are toast. There is no going back.
Many countries have local versions of fakebook and twatter. The authoritarian behavior of the Big Tech fascists will cause more folks to abandon them.
Weasel much, Jack. Crap in your own hat, Jaclk?
What???? What kind of statement is that? An attempt at a backpedal??
Dorsey is a Hitler wannabee.
Clearly.
Antifa should be out after his fascist butt.
Yep, ditto...
Yes just delete twitter. Who needs that anyway.
untenable circumstanceWhat does that mean?
Duh!
Delete Twitter and Fecebook.
The world will be a better place.
Unlike what you get on google dot com...hundreds of photos of tanks and dead and dying kids...all you get on dot cn are peaceful photos of Mao smiling lovingly down on his people.
IOW google (which also owns youtube) sold out to...bowed down to...the Butchers of Beijing.
Silicon Valley is the enemy....a wholly owned subsidiary of Rat Party Headquarters. Or is it the other way around?
