Zorral Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Part of going full bore fashetc. he gone full bore on handing over every bit of data the site has collected to the fash. He’s also giving them the key to the Twitter kingdom. https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/musk-goes-full-pizzagate Quote I’ve already written about the narcissism/radicalization cycle that took hold of Elon Musk at some point for whatever reasons and has been accelerating at a rapid pace since he finalized his acquisition of Twitter six weeks ago. It keeps accelerating, and in two distinct but interrelated ways I would like to note. The first is that Musk is now in near constant dialogue with the most rabid conspiracy theorists and anti-Semites in the digital space. He’s jumped head first into the “globalist”/pedophile vortex which was at the heart of the “Pizzagate” conspiracy theory and later the entire QAnon movement. He now accuses former Twitter management of intentionally allowing the platform it to become a breeding ground of pedophilia and child sex trafficking. He claims he’s shutting the offending accounts down after previous management refused to do so. These accusations have become so totalizing that yesterday Musk drew a rebuke from former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, who has been one of Musk’s bigger supporters during the takeover. Many people take these claims at face value. But if you step back you see that the message Musk is now broadcasting is indistinguishable from the far-right claims of Pizzagate and QAnon propaganda: our “globalist” enemies are behind a vast network of pedophiles preying on our children. This shouldn’t surprise us because Musk’s main interlocutors are now literally the people who brought us Pizzagate and related conspiracy theories and blood libels. Musk now regularly engages with and affirms the various claims and attacks of Mike Cernovich, the main promoter of the circa-2016 “Pizzagate” conspiracy theory which posited that Democratic elites were using a D.C. pizza shop as the center of a child sex ring. Pizzagate eventually evolved into QAnon. He’s also affirming the claims of disgraced journalist Lara Logan who was recently banned form Newsmax of all places for repeatedly claiming that World Economic Forum “elites” were “dining on the blood of children.” In other words, literally blood libels. (It takes a lot to get banned from Newsmax.) This is now Musk’s milieu. These are just a couple examples. Musk isn’t just engaging with these people on Twitter. He’s also giving them the key to the Twitter kingdom. It starts with people like Matt Taibbi and Bari Weis, Musk’s in-house “reporters,” who, whatever their shortcomings, are not in the same class as Cernovich and Logan. But each new “revelation” spawns a new round of accusations from far-right media working in concert with them. Those accusations now focus on people who are actually working for Musk and even participating, at his direction, in his release of the communications record of previous management. The first example was Jim Baker, the one time FBI general counsel who later joined Twitter. As the sole remaining top-level lawyer in Twitter’s general counsel’s office, Baker was working with Taibbi and Weiss on their initial documentary releases. He then fell under suspicion for his role in the purported Russia-Russia-Russia “hoax.” Once Musk’s new friends told him about Baker’s background he was summarily fired. There are a number of other examples of this just in the last few days. The folks Musk has brought into his orbit aren’t only trying to discredit past Twitter management, they are in many cases deciding that the Twitter employees assigned to feed them information are themselves part of the larger anti-conservative conspiracy. It’s a very Lord-of-the-Flies-type environment Musk has spawned there. It’s not clear to me he really knows what he’s unleashed or how to control it. But there’s also little evidence he has any desire to control it or sees it as a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorral Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Not only do all these fash grift, they stiff. A private jet provider has sued Twitter, alleging that the social media giant refused to pay for flights that were provided to an executive in October. Or -- everybody in Twit's accounts payable office was fired. Same thing. Quote Private Jet Services Group, LLC (PJS) filed the lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Hampshire on Friday, stating that Twitter has refused to pay $197,725 that it is owed for flights that executive Leslie Berland took from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey to San Francisco and back on Oct. 26 and 27 .

Spockydog Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) Here's the thing about Qanon... Anyone living in Britain who believes that there are not elite paedophile rings currently operating under the protection of 'the establishment', really haven't been paying attention. Jimmy Saville. Cyril Smith. Leon Brittan. And Christ knows who else: Westminster paedophile dossier Leon Brittan claimed to have passed these documents to the Metropolitan Police, yet the Metropolitan Police claim to have never received them. I mean, what in the actual fuck? Quote A dossier on paedophiles allegedly associated with the British government was assembled by the British Member of Parliament Geoffrey Dickens, who handed it to the then-Home Secretary, Leon Brittan, in 1984. The whereabouts of the dossier is unknown, along with other files on organised child abuse that had been held by the Home Office. In 2013, the Home Office stated that all relevant information had been passed to the police, and that Dickens' dossier had not been retained. It was later disclosed that 114 documents concerning child abuse allegations were missing. In July 2014, the Labour Party called for a new inquiry into the way that the allegations had been handled, and the Prime Minister, David Cameron, ordered the permanent secretary of the Home Office, Mark Sedwill, to investigate the circumstances of the lost dossier. On 7 July 2014, the Home Secretary, Theresa May, announced a review into the handling of historic child abuse allegations, to be led by Peter Wanless, chief executive of the NSPCC, and the establishment of a public panel inquiry into the duty of care taken in the protection of children from paedophiles by British public institutions, led by an independent panel of experts and chaired by Baroness Butler-Sloss. Butler-Sloss later stood down as chair of the inquiry. On 5 September 2014, it was announced that it would instead be chaired by Fiona Woolf but on 31 October 2014 she, too, resigned from the role. On 4 February 2015 it was announced that the inquiry would be chaired by Justice Lowell Goddard, a New Zealand High Court judge. The existing panel would be disbanded, and the inquiry would be given new powers, becoming the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse. On 4 August 2016, she also resigned from the role. Someone should ask William Hague why he resigned from government. No, no. Why he really resigned. Edited December 11, 2022 by Spockydog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
