I want to be very clear here: these lying sacks of shit accused me and others of “censorship” for studying the Big Lie, and vaccine narratives, on social media. Taibbi etc denounced us in a Jim Jordan heading, and it led to years of subpoenas and lawsuits. That’s all it takes to be found “guilty”.

Let that sink in. This is what the Twitter Files pretext was actually about. Water boys for authoritarians.
