"Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey said it was “unacceptable” that the social media giant blocked users from sharing a Post exposé about Hunter Biden’s emails without providing a clear message as to why it was taking the action.

Dorsey released his statement in a tweet Wednesday night — hours after a number of high-profile Republicans, including Sen. Josh Hawley, blasted the social media giant for blocking the stories from being shared on the platform.
“Our communication around our actions on the @nypost article was not great. And blocking URL sharing via tweet or DM with zero context as to why we’re blocking: unacceptable,” Dorsey wrote in the tweet.
Twitter blocked users from sharing an article that indicated Hunter Biden introduced his father Joe to a Ukranian businessman — charging that “hacked materials” were used in the story.
The company also locked the Post’s main Twitter account, which is still inactive, hours after it went dark Wednesday afternoon.
Social media giant Facebook also said it would limit the spread of the article, pending a review by independent fact checkers.
Incensed by the move, Sen. Hawley sent letters to both companies, demanding answers as to why the platforms “censored” the stories.
“@Twitter @jack this is not nearly good enough. In fact, it’s a joke. It’s downright insulting. I will ask you – and @Facebook– to give an explanation UNDER OATH to the Senate subcommittee I chair. These are potential violations of election law, and that’s a crime,” he wrote in a tweet.'

He did not however give any indication that Twitters hostility to free minds is ending.

Twitter is not suitable for use by Free People.

It is a tool of the authoritarian Woke.

God help us.

Indeed he didn't but this might get his attention:

Twitter is worried that all of their employees will quit, the tail wags the dog in this alternate universe we are in at the moment, which will not last long, and will hurt like hell when the fantasy collapses.

His admission is unacceptable. Who cares about his admission? It is done.

Anyone who calls themselves a conservative and is still using Facebook and Twitter should be ashamed of themselves. Trump should leave Twitter for good and take his followers with him.

You have more control over Twitter and Facebook than they over you. I use neither platform and I have ZERO problems accessing news. I have zero problem accessing those I wish to contact.

People need to stop being fucking lazy and allowing these platforms to abuse them. These platforms rely on advertising dollars which are predicated on subscribers. Subscribers go, advertising dollars dry up and stock price goes down and nobody cares about them.

Look at the NBA. They went woke and their NBA finals went broke. Now they are bending the knee, but it is too late I think to bring fans back. It is like a cheating husband like Cal Cunningham saying "ooops I am sorry for fucking that lady in our house"
 
Twitter and Facebook act as Political Action Committees.

They should register as such or be shut down.
