You do realize that the entire thrust of the Twitter Files is that it's Democrats using Corporations to control narrative and political discourse about everything from Covid/health care to CRT/education to Russiagate/foreign policy.
That is EXACTLY the definition of fascism.
"A political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition."
Hate the Repuglicans?
I do.
Hate the Demonrats more?
I do.
Hate the the Uniparty that uses a rotating Villian/Hero to distract from them keeping things status quo (meaning... keeping things continuingly getting worse for most of us)?
You're fucking right I do.
With enough hatred to start a fleet of electric buses.
The twitter files. Wasn't that the thing where that Tom Swift electric car/rocket ship dude---Musk, that's the guy---the guy who cherry-picked his own polished up best-ofs from his own twitter file cabinet and hand-fed them to a few substackers (who will remain unnamed in this space to prevent needless blushing) one of whom previously pooh-poohed the practice of taking collated handouts from oligarchic geeks because once you do that...you're hopelessly compromised as a journalist?
You think Twitter collated a story and gave it to Matt and Michael et al? Maybe you're just embarrassed you never suspected the extent of the collusion. Or angry your friends have been exposed. Why denigrate his scoop?
Yup the repuglician facist party believe in democracy and the tooth fairy.

(Thanks for that metaphor starter, Matt Taibbi!)
Well said!

This what ya talkin' about? Those twitter files?
You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
How do you know anything about the process that produced the Twitter Files?
Because you don't.
What do you think these supposed non-cherry-picked twitter files say? Do you think they negate anything?
You think Twitter collated a story and gave it to Matt and Michael et al? Maybe you're just embarrassed you never suspected the extent of the collusion. Or angry your friends have been exposed. Why denigrate his scoop?
What gives you the impression I have any friends?
Sorry to give you the impression that we had that impression.
This question is code for "proud to be an asshole"!
Why assume it's code?
Don't you people have anything better than childish, inane insults? Your own word choices disprove your own words.
