"The #Taibbi/ #Shellenberger interpretation of the #TwitterFiles is an attempt to shut down the rights of private companies to enforce their own rules and cultivate their own communities, by laundering it with actual censorial #government acts."

#Snowden seems to love @pluralistic. Have you asked him to join the #fediverse, Cory? I desperately want #Greenwald #Taibbi and all the other dissident lefties here. Free #Assange!
This is so funny. Oh my god this is so funny.
He's found his new home.

Is it possible to sink lower than appearing on Jimmy Dore? Lol.

In other news, apparently #MattTaibbi is now on #TruthSocial. So maybe we can finally stop pretending #Taibbi was ever in any meaningful way "left."
@mmasnick I wrote this Dec 2021. I can't believe that #Greenwald and #Taibbi have slipped this far.
@TheDailyEdge apparently #taibbi moved to #thruthsocial . From one billionaire's udder to another. Godspeed and good riddance. #twitter
Let’s face it. Matt Taibbi isn’t all that hard to understand. It’s what happens when a talented journalist gets corrupted by becoming dedicated to how much money he can make instead of exposing the truth.
Eventually, a price must be paid.
“…we went from Taibbi praising Musk for supporting free speech … to Taibbi leaving Twitter, and Musk not just unfollowing him but shadowbanning him and all his Twitter Files.
In about 48 hours.”
The amazing @mmasnick :
“we went from Taibbi praising Elon Musk for supporting free speech and supposedly helping to expose the evil shadowbanning of the old regime, and refusing to criticize Musk on anything, to Taibbi leaving Twitter, and Musk not just unfollowing him but shadowbanning him and all his Twitter Files.
“In about 48 hours.”
@TheDailyEdge
#Taibbi has now purged all mention of the #TwitterFiles from his bio on that foul site.
I think that #Taibbi is just using the Substack situation to provide an excuse for him to flee Twitter after @mehdihasan embarrassed him on TV, but of course that's an evidence-free conspiracy theory just like are his #TwitterFiles.
Anyways, I'm glad that he's gone over to Truth Social where he belonged this entire time. https://observer.com/2000/06/from-russia-with-lust/
Good to see Matt Taibbi reaping the consequences of being a sloppy far right propagandist.

Taibbi will no longer be doing any future Twitter Files reporting, it seems … a mass exodus of top birdsite content creators has begun; Musk’s decision to block Substack despite his claims of Free-Speech stands a good chance of ending twitter in the next 2 months #Taibbi #twitterfiles #twitter #musk
@alfredo_liberal
I just looked. His public explanation is that it's about the #Notes conflict between Substack and Twitter, but we all know how honest #Taibbi is so...
