#SocialMedia #Twitter #Musk #Journalism #Censorship #FreedomOfSpeech #Trump: "The Trump campaign coordinated with Elon Musk’s X (née Twitter) to kill circulation of my publication of the J.D. Vance Dossier, The New York Times reported today. Simply put, X colluded with a political campaign to restrict the public’s access to information about a Vice Presidential candidate just weeks before the election.
Millions of Americans like myself rely on social media platforms like X to participate in the political process, whether by active discussion or simply consuming political content. X’s decision to remove my article and permanently suspend my account demonstrates the awesome power concentrated in these platforms and their billionaire owners.
The Trump campaign claims that my publication of the Vance dossier constitutes election interference. The real election interference here is that a social media corporation can decree certain information unfit for the American electorate. Two of our most sacred rights as Americans are the freedoms of speech and assembly, online or otherwise. It is a national humiliation that these rights can be curtailed by anyone with enough digits in their bank account."
