The Washington Post is very upset that Elon just bought Twitter cuz now they can't rig – I mean protect! – the coming election
· Oct 27, 2022 · NottheBee.com

With Elon Musk taking over the press's favorite social media platform, panic is beginning to set in as some on the Left realize that it will make their job of suppressing "misinformation" that much harder.

Translation: NO!!! ELON IS GOING TO PREVENT US FROM RIGGING THE ELECTION!!!

How in the world is Democracy™ going to be saved if Big Tech can't suppress potential "misinformation" at the behest of government agencies?

With less than two weeks until the midterm elections, about 20 employees from across Twitter have volunteered to help the social network's internal "Election Squad" enforce its rules at a crucial moment for U.S. politics. In crash-course training sessions this week, the volunteers learned the basics of how to spot election misinformation, detect bots pushing propaganda and flag potential violations of Twitter's rules to the company's policy staff.

If people are able to speak freely then our democracy is over!

This coming from the "Democracy Dies in Darkness" people.

"Given the rapid growth in the scale of disinformation since 2020, it's reasonable to doubt whether they can keep up," said Eddie Perez, Twitter's former product director for civic integrity, which includes its election policies. Perez is now a board member at the OSET Institute, a nonpartisan nonprofit devoted to election security and election integrity.

Twitter spokesperson Katie Rosborough confirmed the call for volunteers ahead of midterms and said the company had previously done the same during the 2020 U.S. presidential election as well as the recent elections in Brazil.

"People use Twitter to find real-time, reliable information about elections, and our investment in this work underscores how seriously we take that responsibility," Rosborough said.

You know, I think once Twitter shuttered the completely true and legitimate Hunter Biden laptop story and shut down the New York Post's account at the FBI's direction in order to protect the Democrat presidential candidate and rig the election against Donald Trump, they kinda lost their credibility when it comes to detecting "misinformation."

(And that's not even getting into the Covid stuff, y'all.)

Seriously, this is just the WaPo whining that Twitter won't be able to influence elections as they have in the past.

It would be a real shame if the truth somehow got out and cost the woke lefties some votes!
