The X Files: Leaked documents reveal X staff stripped of moderation power

It was obviously driven by a shared agenda (look at the whose who of reactionary folks involved) to try to create a perception, but for all the extensive archives of activity & moderation history & discussion that was there it had the hardest time hyping up the few tiny little morsels it could find.

Theres been such active work in the world to portray Twitter as some ridiculous ultra left-ist hotbed that went out of their way to steer the site, but that team has again shown vastly more tolerance and openness & willingness to stick up for users in the face of giant institutional/governmental forces than the modern thin skinned & government-complyimg reincarnation X. It's exhausting seeing the constant organizing protesting old Twitter as some horrible terrible place without incredibly strongly principles belief in free speech, and the Twitter Files were the tip of this lame spear struggling desperately to mislead people atop it's fake point.
