    Capsule Summaries of all Twitter Files Threads to Date, With Links and a Glossary

    For those who haven't been following, a compilation of one-paragraph summaries of all the Twitter Files threads by every reporter. With links and notes on key revelations


    Matt Taibbi

    It’s January 4th, 2023, which means Twitter Files stories have been coming out for over a month. Because these are weedsy tales, and may be hard to follow if you haven’t from the beginning, I’ve written up capsule summaries of each of the threads by all of the Twitter Files reporters, and added links to the threads and accounts of each. At the end, in response to some readers (especially foreign ones) who’ve found some of the alphabet-soup government agency names confusing, I’ve included a brief glossary of terms to help as well.

    In order, the Twitter Files threads:

    Question:

    Why, when Elon Musk either changed his mind about buying Twitter or pretended to, did the owners of Twitter take him to court to force him to go through with it ?


    Now we are seeing how much mess he's making of the operation that stole elections and forced this genocide ( or whatever it really is ), simple logic says they would have done ANYTHING to stop him taking the lid off what's been going on with social media and mass mind control. The Twitter Files have done more than anything else to expose a massive criminal operation, or at least to convince a large number of normie sceptics that it's real and huge.

    So WHY ?

    Why did they end up twisting his arm to get on and do all that ?

    Something very different is going on deep down under the surface than what the news narrative is telling us, so far.

    There are plenty of visibly upset minions, and the story looks like someone's big plan is falling apart in front of us, right? . . . but, for all the shedding of lower level operators ( who obviously didn't see this coming ), someone very high up with the power to have stopped it, DIDN'T.

    We're in the time of real awakening to our full, infinite selves, which is something the people at the very top want to stop at all costs.

    Could it be that Musk has been allowed to blow the lid on a lot of subjects that were being censored, especially the vaccine and stolen elections, to allow a sort of false awakening?
    Keeping the majority of folk stuck in the paradigm of 'us v them' thinking and feeling.

    'They' undoubtedly know that disengaging with the old systems is the only true way to wake up, neither rejecting or accepting, and so they are willing to let us know what they've been up to, as long as we stay engaged in those systems.

    The loosh is essential to keeping us enslaved and in victimhood.

    Sadly, the only reason why social media affects the way humans behave, is they have stopped looking at their own surroundings, and would rather believe what a screen on their device tells them.

    The social media manipulation wouldn't have altered the population if the population would wake up and realize THAT is a digital world, and NOT the one they are living in daily, unless they fail to recognize their own surroundings daily, instead of what their devices tell them. They're in short, being entrained...

    THIS is what needs to change. Right or wrong shouldn't be polarized opinions of individuals who have a voice online, but that is now being 'promoted..."... Content creators rather than individual thinking. People really need to stop feeding that machine regardless of what one person says and does.

    Once people realize that they look for mimes that suit their feelings at the time, and post them, that they too, are trying to share an ideal, a feeling with the masses, and absolutely those that wish to motivate the masses in one direction or another would absolutely do the same.

    Recognition is the first step... Breaking away from it's influence is a beginning.

    And it will continue... We just need to remember that everything we see is deliberate. Even now, I am trying to lt people know we need to think for ourselves, not just react to what we see, and debate it endlessly, while it continues to progress at a breakneck speed with AI.

    I suppose I am saying I see so many "reacting" these days rather than "Acting"... Which indicates, they've already won...

    .


    There's an interesting 10 minutes at the beginning of this Rubin Report about Elon inviting Dave Rubin to go to Twitter Headquarters in San Francisco to talk about his account - 4:35 to 14:35 -

    It seems that there are deeper levels of coding and secret labels that are causing problems and shadow banning after the initial positive change over to Musk ownership - and Dave Rubin's account was one of those that was looked at ...

    Elon is reported to have said that everything is so screwed up the whole thing might have to be scrapped and started again - also there could still be people who work there that aren't 'mission aligned' causing problems - Dave Rubin was impressed that when he asked Elon what he could repeat about the meeting with him he said - 'anything that's true' and left it at that....

    It's good to see these people flushed right out into the open and put under the microscope, if only for a while -
    it would be fantastic if they did actually get prosecuted and held accountable but in today's climate of lawlessness for the Global Elite and their minions unfortunately you have to be prepared for them getting away with it all -

    time will tell if ANY of the ghastly gang pay for what they have done - they must have felt very smug and important doing what they did and working with government agencies - even, EVEN banning the President of the US - I expect those they helped to censor and manipulate the election will give them protection somehow... if only to protect themselves -

    There are some tweets on the InfoWars link as the ex Twitter Executives go through the 'I don't recall' routine - but it's good to see them on public display...

    Videos: Former Twitter Execs Squirm As They’re Told They Could Be Arrested For Election Interference
    Quote Former Twitter executives looked at times uncomfortable, but betrayed their staunch anti-free speech biases during a House Oversight Committee heading on Wednesday.

    The hearing was called to investigate the role government played, specifically the FBI, with regards to censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop report by the New York Post.

    Former Twitter Chief Legal Officer Vijaya Gadde, Former Deputy General Counsel James Baker, and Former Global Head of Trust & Safety Yoel Roth were grilled by Representatives, with Congressman Clay Higgins telling them they could be arrested for interfering with the 2020 presidential election.

    “The bottom line is that the FBI had the Biden Crime Family laptop for a year. They knew it was leaking. They knew it would hurt the Biden family. So the FBI used its relationship with Twitter to suppress criminal evidence from being revealed about Joe Biden one month before the 2020 election,” Higgins asserted.

    “You, ladies and gentlemen interfered with the United States of America 2020 presidential election! Knowingly and willingly!” he continued, adding “That’s the bad news! It’s gonna get worse! Because this is the investigation part! Later comes the arrest part, your attorneys are familiar with that.”

    “I’d like to spend five hours with these ladies and gentlemen doing depositions surely yet to come,” the Congressman added.

    Sadly, the only reason why social media affects the way humans behave, is they have stopped looking at their own surroundings, and would rather believe what a screen on their device tells them.

    The social media manipulation wouldn't have altered the population if the population would wake up and realize THAT is a digital world, and NOT the one they are living in daily, unless they fail to recognize their own surroundings daily, instead of what their devices tell them. They're in short, being entrained...

    THIS is what needs to change. Right or wrong shouldn't be polarized opinions of individuals who have a voice online, but that is now being 'promoted..."... Content creators rather than individual thinking. People really need to stop feeding that machine regardless of what one person says and does.

    Once people realize that they look for mimes that suit their feelings at the time, and post them, that they too, are trying to share an ideal, a feeling with the masses, and absolutely those that wish to motivate the masses in one direction or another would absolutely do the same.

    Recognition is the first step... Breaking away from it's influence is a beginning.

    And it will continue... We just need to remember that everything we see is deliberate. Even now, I am trying to lt people know we need to think for ourselves, not just react to what we see, and debate it endlessly, while it continues to progress at a breakneck speed with AI.

    I suppose I am saying I see so many "reacting" these days rather than "Acting"... Which indicates, they've already won...
    You hit the nail on the head with this post!!!

    In my mind at least, this entire problem has arose because there is no privacy on these digital networks.
    In fact, privacy in general has been under attack for decades.

    Without privacy, the digital world is set to take off!

    Instead of the individual being the gatekeeper of their own private information, we have been violated by the social media industry and have had our privacy invaded and made public.
    Once the genie is out of the bottle it cannot ever be put back in; once privacy is violated it is violated forever.
    We lost that war quite a while ago.

    Also, the digital world is intrinsically unsafe and unsecure. Nothing is forgotten, and nothing is functionally taboo.
    So, stealing an election, instilling mass formation pathology, creating fear, promoting false narratives, silencing and cancelling individuals, controlling the public's actions and beliefs, and basically teaching people the goosestep of conformity, become child's play for those willing to break the rules of gentility and fair play.

    The great savoir of society, Mr. Elon, is no better. He also manipulates the algorithms. What's the difference? He is as cavalier with our privacy as any of the other rich tyrants. He still sanctions and cancels. He hasn't done us any great service that is not directly connected to his bottom line. Twitter is hemorrhaging money. He needs to get the public to believe he is cleaning up the site so he can make money.

    Why he bought the company seems almost to have been on a dare, and nothing more. Imagine spending $45 billion altruistically?! Just to make the world a better place? Ya, right.
    I'm not sold, and I won't buy.
