24 November 2020
The platform has been making strong efforts to warn users of potentially misleading tweets.

To be honest, I actually don't mind this kind of idea. I, for sure, definitely don't want to believe conspiracy theorists.

          The western world transitions closer and closer to China. I'd say we're close to Russia at the moment and quickly heading towards China-level of censorship.

The rise of left controlling the media, education and entertainment industries ensures that nothing is transparent. and big tech is the left's c r o n y capitalists, like in china. That's why politicians who want to tax the rich are millionaires and billioanries themselves.

              Very soon only 1 party will exist in the US. And all corporations will have indirect interests, and ownership in pursuance of their instructions.

                  Wonder who gave Twitter the authority to decide the genuineness of any information.

It doesn't mean that a private repository like social lamedia has to host your nonsense. They have rules. Respect them or go elsewhere. Or live a better life without social media, purveyors of false information and echo chambers, harvesters of private data, catalysts of chaos and polarization.

                      Imagine being so insecure in your beliefs that instead of using your right to free speech to convince people you're right, you try to take away other people's right to free speech instead. The West has fallen and turned into China

                            Anonymous, 24 Nov 2020It's private company sir, not public entity. Does not matter who is the owner of the company, do you think that Twitter or any other multi company does not collaborate with mainstream public government interests? That is the reason why this news is published at the first place

                                    The corporations are more powerful than heads of states. They dictate what the news is. By dictating what can be allowed to be reported. Anyone who disagrees will be deplatformed across all major platforms, at once. The individual's financial freedoms will be restricted. They may even disappear. Wow

                                      Only democ lies will be spared that too any unsubstantiated diatribes against the president Donald Trump! What a neutral media!

Removing hate speech is one thing, but censoring information that they do not like is so wrong. What's different between this and what governments like China do? People like Trump must just boycott Twitter.
