Yesterday was a flagship day in corporate media. It was the day they were forced to explicitly state what has long been clear: they not only favor censorship but desperately crave and depend on it.
Even if Musk doesn't buy Twitter, never forget what yesterday revealed.

Army physician hero Dr. Pete Chambers gave fair informed consent to soldiers and when fully informed on what could happen, almost no takers. He found that the safety events/side effects intentionally under-reported to make it appear safe when as injuries and casualties mounted. pic.twitter.com/G9mUQujHeP

“;;;Media figures everywhere are openly complaining that they dislike the Musk move because they’re terrified he will censor people less. Bullet-headed neoconservative fussbudget Max Boot was among the most emphatic in expressing his fear of a less-censored world. . . .
In every newsroom I’ve ever been around, there’s always one sad hack who’s hated by other reporters but hangs on to a job because he whispers things to management and is good at writing pro-war editorials or fawning profiles of Ari Fleischer or Idi Amin or other such distasteful media tasks. Even that person would never have been willing to publicly say something as gross as, “For democracy to survive, it needs more censorship”! A professional journalist who opposed free speech was not long ago considered a logical impossibility, because the whole idea of a free press depended upon the absolute right to be an unpopular pain in the ass.
Things are different now, of course, because the bulk of journalists no longer see themselves as outsiders who challenge official pieties, but rather as people who live inside the rope-lines and defend those pieties. I’m guessing this latest news is arousing special horror because the current version of Twitter is the professional journalist’s idea of Utopia: a place where Donald Trump doesn’t exist, everyone with unorthodox thoughts is warning-labeled (“age-restricted” content seems to be a popular recent scam), and the Current Thing is constantly hyped to the moronic max. The site used to be fun, funny, and a great tool for exchanging information. Now it feels like what the world would be if the eight most vile people in Brooklyn were put in charge of all human life, a giant, hyper-pretentious Thought-Starbucks…”

The ruling elites can't survive any kind of meaningful free speech.
It must be crushed or quarantined in ghettoes where it won't influence the general public.
A regime built on fragile delusions that would crumble into a million pieces absent the protection of censors. https://t.co/kJhPNIhJXM

“…NYU Law’s chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine circulated a statement that, besides casually endorsing the murder of Israeli civilians, argued that “framing is everything and the Zionist grip on the media is omnipresent” and also referenced the “Islamophobic, Zionist-funded US and Western media.”…”
Well, I shouldn’t say that. They’re selling this now, too:
