Twitter Files Expose Double Standards as Trump Banned But Malaysia PM Tweeted Muslims Have “Right” to Kill Millions

by Will Jones
13 December 2022 11:15 AM

The latest drop of Twitter files showed how the social media company banned President Trump after the January 6th riots, while dictators were allowed to remain on the platform and promote mass violence and genocide. The Mail has the story.

While Twitter executives decided Trump’s use of the phrase ‘American patriots’ could be a “coded incitement to further violence” and banned him for it, they did nothing when the Iranian Ayatollah and the Prime Minster of Malaysia explicitly advocated slaughtering millions of lives.

The disturbing revelations came to light on Monday as journalists Bari Weiss and Matt Taibbi continue to come through a trove of Twitter’s internal files and communications that Elon Musk released as a part of his mission to return the platform to a sanctuary of free speech…

Mere months before Trump was banned from Twitter, then-Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad took to Twitter to say Muslims had the right to murder millions of French people.

“Muslims have a right to be angry and to kill millions of French people for the massacres of the past” he wrote in an October 2020 post.

The post was deleted by Twitter for “glorifying violence”, but the Prime Minister was allowed to keep his account.

And three short years prior, Iranian Ayatollah Ali Khamenei called Israel a “cancerous tumor” and suggested it might be “eradicated”.

“Our stance against Israel is the same stance we have always taken.” he wrote in June 2018. “#Israel is a malignant cancerous tumour in the West Asian region that has to be removed and eradicated: it is possible it will happen.”

Despite calling for the extinction of a country’s entire population, not only was the tweet not removed, but the Ayatollah’s account remained perfectly in place.  

Another Tweet Twitter allowed to remain posted was from Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, who in October 2021 called his citizens to arm against people of the Tigray region in the north of the country. 

The Ethiopian government has been at war with Tigray since 2020, a conflict which the Government has been accused of carrying out atrocities in.

And in February of 2021, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi threatened to arrest Twitter employees in the country and imprison them for seven years after accounts opposing him were restored.

His account, however, was untouched by the platform.

While those world leaders explicitly called for violence on Twitter but were allowed to remain on the platform almost unchecked, executives made the decision to ban Trump for a tweet some considered could possibly be interpreted by some as a call to violence.

“The 75,000,000 great American Patriots who voted for me, American First, and Make America Great Again, will have a Giant Voice long into the future,” Trump tweeted on January 8th 2021. “They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!”

Weiss revealed that in the aftermath of that tweet, some at Twitter flagged it while others patently dismissed it as not violation any guidelines. 

However, then-Head of Legal, Policy, and Trust, Vijaya Gadde, asked whether his posts could be “coded incitement to further violence”.

Shortly after, Twitter employees decided to interpret Trump’s use of ‘American Patriots’ to refer to rioters, which they then suggested could violate Twitter’s Glorification of Violence policy.

Then Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey then got involved when Twitter executives hosted a 30-minute all-staff meeting.

Finally, Trump was banned from the platform “due to the risk of further incitement of violence”.

Worth reading in full.

“They wouldn’t last a morning in the private sector.”

Absolutely correct. The senior civil servants I came across when I worked amongst them were thick, arrogant beyond belief, clueless job-wise and masters at ducking and diving. Of the scores I cam across only two would have stood a chance working in the private sector.

Igor has made an interesting discovery using UK data regarding a significant increase in hospitalizations 6 months post Covid booster;

”The most important fact we see is that for people over 50, the most dangerous period after vaccination is between 6 and 9 months after their last dose. Their risk of hospitalization is several times higher than before six months or after nine months. The increase in risk far outweighs a small reduction in the first six months.
So, people who take a Covid booster first go through a somewhat reduced hospitalization risk for the first six months, then go through a dramatically heightened risk of hospitalization, then hospitalization rates “return to normal,” with the normal being very high. Does that look like the vaccine provides any benefit? Not to me!”

Just a thought on ULEZ:

Are these prisons being built in preparation for Billy’s next release?

“Catastrophic Contagion” is apparently going to be the big one. How much more effective and targeted would it be if people were closely confined in 15 minute cities?

Excellent point Hux, ref the LTNs especially, something I’ve been ruminating on too.

I also wondered about the power supply required by all that additional surveillance: the local town is just finishing off it’s 2nd ‘smart junction’ and about to start a 3rd, the multiple cameras of which are all cabled. As are the many additional street cameras installed during the lockdowns – all while we’re being told to freeze to death in the dark at home. How’s that supposed to meet Net Zero then?

This is where the £37 billion on Track and Trace went, something I have mentioned numerous times – smart junctions, smart cameras. T and T was never just about a bloody app.

This simulation was in Italy in 2021. There’s probably plenty more that we’re not even aware of. Obsessive b’stards! 😮

“Fake trans applicants ‘could trick universities’” 

But but but aren’t straight A pupils – whatever their race, creed or colour – simply a result of white privilege? It’s only your pronouns that count these days…..

I was appalled to learn that the Guardian loons had accused Neil Oliver of antisemitism. To accuse someone of antisematism because they talk about global elites and their out in the open conspiracies is disgusting.
Made me feel quite sick

Interesting take by Craig Murray on the Sy Hersh story. https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2023/02/sy-hersh-and-the-way-we-live-now/
“… But what most worries me about the entire story is the unanimous complicity of the mainstream media in ignoring the completely obvious.

The media line, parroted here relentlessly by the BBC and corporate media, was that the Russians had probably themselves blown up the pipeline on which they had expended such great resources and three decades of intense diplomatic activity, and which was to be the key to Russia’s single most valuable source of income for the next 40 years.

This was always quite literally incredible. You would have to be deranged to believe it.

It actually taught me not just that we truly are in the realm of totalitarianism and the Big Lie, but I learnt something very important about how the Big Lie works.

The secret is not that people genuinely believe an outrageous claim. The secret is that people do genuinely believe that they are in a battle of good against evil, and it is necessary to accept the narrative being promoted, in the interests of fighting evil.

Don’t question, just follow. If you do question, you are promoting evil.

I am sure that is how it works.

State and corporate stenographer journalists are actually intelligent individuals. If they thought about it, they would realise that the narrative that Russia blew up its own pipeline is obvious nonsense.

But they are convinced it is morally wrong to think about it…. ”

There is also the not to be overlooked issue of the No2Nato event on 25.2.in London having to go underground.
That development aloneis actually a confirmation of Peter Hitchens fear already having become reality.
He suggests attending it even if you disagree but are pro free speech.
