What's amusing about this whole thing to me is that Facebook and Twitter dropping the ban hammer on this piece will Streisand the hell out of it. If they'd left it alone, it would've been lost in the news cycle with everything else going on and no one would remember it in a week. Now the story is, once again, "Big Tech censors conservatives".
Twitter is dominated by SC hearings and baseball, Google News is SC hearings and Barron Trump having covid, and other random stuff like rabid enthusiasm for early voting below the fold. I'm not seeing a single reference to this story on either of those sites headlines, and I'm also in an incognito window.
This thing didn't even survive the first half of the day.
This post has some 700 comments at the time I’m reading it, and has blown up compared to the coverage it had this morning. No doubt it will get lost eventually, but I think the ham-handed, nakedly political actions of twitter’s censors have become a story in their own right now.
