August 20, 2018Told you this wasn’t a conspiracy theory, resisters.
Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey recently sat down with CNN’s Brian Stelter, and he finally admitted it: We’re not crazy conspiracy theorists. Twitter has a left-leaning bias.
“We need to constantly show that we are not adding our own bias, which I fully admit is … is more left-leaning,” Dorsey stated.
Finally! An admission. But this next part was a bit confounding. He tried to say that even though they have a SCREAMING left-wing bias, they’re not making decisions based on political ideology, which is LAUGHABLE.
“But the real question behind the question is, are we doing something according to political ideology or viewpoints? And we are not. Period,” he added.
"We do not look at content with regards to political viewpoint or ideology," @Jack told me. But he knows some people do not believe him. "I think we need to constantly show that we are not adding our own bias, which I fully admit is left, is more left-leaning," he says… pic.twitter.com/1i8jJunhfz

Remember when they temporarily banned Candace Owens for tweeting the SAME THINGS NYT’s Sarah Jeong said? She just replaced “white” with “black.” Owens was banned. Jeong was verified.
And what about Gavin McInnes? And Alex Jones? Why did they ban them? Dorsey is trying to say that they were banned for bad behavior on the platform– “inciting violence” and whatnot– not their political ideologies.
Mhm…sure.
Social Media is totally discriminating against Republican/Conservative voices. Speaking loudly and clearly for the Trump Administration, we won’t let that happen. They are closing down the opinions of many people on the RIGHT, while at the same time doing nothing to others…….

…..Censorship is a very dangerous thing & absolutely impossible to police. If you are weeding out Fake News, there is nothing so Fake as CNN & MSNBC, & yet I do not ask that their sick behavior be removed. I get used to it and watch with a grain of salt, or don’t watch at all..

….Too many voices are being destroyed, some good & some bad, and that cannot be allowed to happen. Who is making the choices, because I can already tell you that too many mistakes are being made. Let everybody participate, good & bad, and we will all just have to figure it out!

He has a point. These days, it feels like social media giants are cracking down harder on Alex Jones than people like Louis Farrakhan and Linda Sarsour.
The bias is real. Jack admitted. it.
