To the extent one can, this person brings receipts, including pointing out a trail left in source code.

Excerpt:

We also knowingly allowed foreign governments to manipulate the platform. State-backed groups from Israel, Iran, and Russia were running their own influence campaigns, and because their goals aligned with ours, we looked the other way. Even when they clearly broke the rules, we didn’t stop them.

Perhaps the most unethical part was how we manufactured news stories. One team would write completely fake articles, while another team would artificially boost their engagement metrics to make them go viral. We specifically targeted certain groups of people, knowing exactly how to manipulate their views and emotions.

The moderation team became a tool for our agenda. We systematically silenced anyone who got in our way, enforcing the rules when it suited us and ignoring them when it didn’t. Elon Musk himself was deeply involved in these decisions, often joking about being “Black Hat MAGA.”

What started as US election interference has now spread to other countries. We’re currently doing the same thing in Germany and other European nations. The damage we’ve done is immeasurable, and I don’t know if it can ever be fixed. People don’t know what’s real anymore, and that’s exactly what we wanted.

    If you can’t tell the difference between the nonsense Trump pushed out and this it sounds like you have a loose grip on objective reality. His points were incoherent and he got laughed out of court by judges he appointed. It wasn’t taken seriously because it was a joke.

    Notably, these patterns in the voting data were also present in 2020 data, but less stark, and starting at 600 votes minimum. That is why Trump is so angry about 2020, and why he is convinced the dems cheated. He is angry because the country hated him so fucking much that they actually out voted a literal vote shifting algorithm.

    Also I’m not a lib, and it was completely eviden they were attempting to steal the election the whole time through other means. (Changing laws, removing poll booths strategically in POC areas, gerrymandering, purging voter rolls, etc).

    He also can’t keep his mouth shut about anything and just admits to shit unprompted - which we’ve also seen.

      difference between the nonsense Trump pushed out and this

      Trump and his allies cited exactly the same kind of ‘anomalous voting trends’ as evidence of vote manipulation. Unless you have something more substantive than ‘these ballots don’t look like we expected them to’ then this is exactly the same kind of non-evidence MAGA had.

      The biden administration was exceptionally unpopular. Anti-Kamala democratic voters have been very clear about why they didn’t vote for her. Rather than reckoning with their complete unpopularity, democrats would rather blame their loss on ‘woke’ politics and vote manipulation.

          Why would a clandestine foreign agent publish malware on a public code repository? Some random reddit user claims to have found a repo on github that uses a publicly known username tied to a politically embroiled tech company and now we’re supposed to believe it was used to falsify an entire electoral system?

          It doesn’t even pass the sniff test bud, what credibility are we supposed to lend to these anonymous users?

            It’s a public piece of code with the admin password for the dominion machines that aligns with the discrepancies in the data.

            The admin password was not public when the commit was pushed.

            You’ll need to read the rest for yourself I’m afraid.

              I don’t much go for self-indulgent fantasies, thanks.

              edit: i feel like this is like someone seeing a magic trick and immediately being convinced wizards are real.

                It’s discrepancies in the data with the means to do it clearly evidenced what are you on about.

                Remote access code + the private admin password + the code to flip the votes and analysis by several different orgs and data scientists that show it looks like said code and smoothing were executed. As well as all the additional evidence in my OP of recorded breaches and tampering.

                Now lets look at what the MAGAts have managed to string together in four years

                  Lmao, you’ll have to do better than “experts see discrepancies in the data”, because that’s what Mike Lindell had, too.

                  Remote access code + the private admin password + the code to flip the votes

                  If this were even true, why would they put it on github, let alone with the password in plain text. Lol Jesus christ do you have any idea how ridiculous this theory is?

                    Jesus Christ mate do you realise how daft you sound.

                    No, it’s not what Lindell had. Again you’re demonstrating your complete lack of a grasp on reality.

                    The private password is on GitHub in plain text.

        No they didn’t lol. Quote the evidence they presented to illustrate how daft it is in comparison. They failed at basic addition among a plethora of other equally hilariously incoherent shite.

        That poll just shows a third of people who flipped from dem had it as their top issue. it doesn’t prove that’s why she lost the election even without considering the fraud.

          Do you have any evidence that isn’t based on the assumption that democratic voters simply wouldn’t split their vote? Or the assumption that people wouldn’t just vote for president and not any other offices?

          Like, IP logs or recount discrepancies? Evidence of malware on the machines? Anything other than “this looks implausible”?
