Twitter’s New CEO Parag Agrawal Has Disturbing Anti-American, Anti-White Tweet History.

LINK

With Twitter founder Jack Dorsey stepping down as CEO, it was announced that Parag Agrawal – the company’s current Chief Technology Officer – will take over the leadership role.

Agrawal, concerningly, is a vocal opponent of free speech and the First Amendment, and has sent tweets about all white people being racist:

“If they are not gonna make a distinction between muslims and extremists, then why should I distinguish between white people and racists.”

— Parag Agrawal (@paraga) October 26, 2010


The Indian-born migrant has used his tenure as Twitter’s tech chief to lead research on how best to silence voices across the platform under the myth of “fake news” and dismiss the ideals America was founded upon, often quoting his favorite leftist celebrities.

In a November 2020 interview, Agrawal said the following, as reported by multiple sources online:

Former CTO and new Twitter CEO Agrawal in November 2020 interview: “Our role is not to be bound by the First Amendment… focus[ing] less on thinking about free speech, but thinking about how the times have changed.”

Even more tech censorship incoming.

Don't use twitter.

If all conservatives stopped, it would strongly affect their bottom line.

The constitution doesn’t have a shelf life.

Times can change all they’d like.

This is like the 10th article I've seen about a tweet from 11 years ago

If you don't like Twitter's ceo, don't use Twitter

I was part of the Twitter purge after the election.

My crime was pointing out a BLM rep killed police officers in BR.

Life is better without that platform in your life.

Social media is not an essential need. All it seems to be good for is attacking people and policing thought. Just cut it out of your lives.

The 2010 tweet doesn’t really concern me. It was 11 years ago.

The 2020 quote is concerning. The “…” could change the entire meaning of his quote/comment but the last sentence on its own

quote:

focus[ing] less on thinking about free speech, but thinking about how the times have changed.”


Is absolutely concerning.

Not really. Simply don’t use Twitter, and don’t care what happens on Twitter.

And when your employer or local government starts making policy based on reaction of the twitter mob?

I love when people get on soapboxes about how locked down all these social media platforms are, but continue to use them. If you don't like the shite, then delete the app.

Vote for non-dumbasses, and don’t work for shitty employers.

Staying obsessed with Twitter is definitely not the answer.
