This is what happens when you try to Tweet a link to the NY Post:



"Potentially harmful." To the Democrats.

FBI is worried about some jackasses in Russia and Iran and we have big tech companies on our own soil interfering in presidential elections.

No bias at all

Not trying to sway an electorate one bit

I'm pretty sure I'm just a jackass in Texas and not a Russian bot, but Twitter thinks it's harmful if I share news links about crackhead Hunter Biden sucking that Chinese cock.

Does it parse any link you post? i.e., if you use a tiny url or post a link to a link, etc?

That's what I got when I tried using the twitter robot on the NY Post page. Didn't try short links.

Twitter knows the majority of Twitter and social media will just believe whatever most people can cram into 140 characters without fact checking it themselves.

The New York Post is STILL LOCKED OUT OF THEIR TWITTER ACCOUNT. Jack made a statement and said it was wrong to handle the blocking the way they did, but they haven't changed any behavior. NYP still cannot post anything. Twitter has regualaryly removed followers from conservative accounts, suppressed high traffic account postings (conservative), prevented accounts from being about to retweet at times.

It's ok for the Ayatollah to post death to America and the Zionists of Israel, It's ok for illegal info being spread about Trump's tax returns. But they come out and completely block the propagation of the Biden story when it hit.

Dorsey will be bluntly asked about this next week, in front of a Senate committee. Looking forward to his answer, considering he will be under oath. Ted Cruz's questioning is going to be must watch tv.

The vote to bring them in was postponed indefinitely...unless Josh Hawley was able to force a vote after going to the floor again last night. Big money from bigtech pulls a lot of weight.

I expect Twitter to block that Biden whistleblower story too by the end of the day

They are definitely followers of the Democrat Party--they haven't learned anything from the last time they shot themselves in the foot. The more you try to block this story the more the people are going to want to try to read it.

Since you tried to tweet it,, they also put your name an address on the list for potential targeting with violence.

Every aspect of politics is an uphill battle for Republicans because liberal progressive Democrats control every form of media.
