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.

    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”?
