Twitter, which recently suspended my account and the accounts of several other journalists, is allowing a verified account to post recruitment videos urging American soldiers to join Russia's Wagner Group PMC, a neo-Nazi linked paramilitary organization designated as a transnational criminal organization by the US government.
@chadloder I would call it "double standards" but we know the standard is just one: profit from alt-right, war criminals and terrorists.
@chadloder the next two years are going to be WILD!
@chadloder Really showing their priorities, huh?
@chadloder TBH, I'd much rather have those guys joining up with Wagner instead of the US military or their local sheriff's department.
@chadloder As if Y'all Qaeda and the Gravy Seals would have the guts to enter an actual combat zone.
@chadloder How pathetic and disgusting! I hope some neo-nazis like Nick Fuentes enlist or maybe some of those Proud Boys.
@chadloder gosh i love twitter and it's mature and responsible owner
@chadloder I got permanently banned for saying redneck
Maybe Elon didn't like it since he likes wearing cowboy hats

@chadloder Oh, ”a verified account”, must be good eh?

But I guess the point of autocratic rulers is to show that they’re above rules, right?

Every asshole king across history has pulled this exact same move. Just different circumstance.

@gimulnautti @chadloder The "rules are for little people" attitude is so pervasive I keep this screencap handy to illustrate the point.

@AntonPNym @chadloder Exactly. Wilholt had a particularly good vision about the practical side-effects of conservatism when it’s not just a concept but an ideology.

And the asshole king in fact the perfect idol to worship for those who would like the law to protect themselves but not bind and then use that to trod on others who the law binds but does not protect.

Now, (the most interesting part), most people won’t consciously perform acts like this. But unconsciously it is a different story.

@chadloder So Musk is encouraging or allowing a Russian government entity to encourage American soldiers to violate their oaths and fight for the Russian government? I think the DOD, DOJ, FBI, DHS and a few additional agencies should be very curious about Wagner and Musk being in business together. And they are in business together because Wagner is paying Musk money for featured product placement...
@toxtethogrady @chadloder Don’t hold your breath. I remember the Hobby Lobby gang filling ISIS coffers and not much happened. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobby_Lobby_smuggling_scandal?wprov=sfti1
Hobby Lobby smuggling scandal - Wikipedia

@Flies4no1 @chadloder That apparently was a complicated issue, and the items that were found to have been looted were the object of a civil asset forfeiture case that resulted in Hobby Lobby paying a fine of $3 million and returning everything. It appears they entered the artifacts business as rank amateurs with money burning a hole in their pockets and failed to do the due diligence that was required to tell real from fake and stolen. I'd say Musk and Wagner are more clear-cut criminals...
@toxtethogrady @chadloder Oh, Musk and Wagner are, definitely, pure evil compared to the Hobby Lobby lot. Will a $3mio fine hurt him - or only give him streetcred among the orcs? I just can’t see him landing in prison, it will go down as some oopsie from the tw*tter moderation team (currently a bag of potatoes in the basement).
@chadloder Pardon me while my head explodes.
@chadloder musk is part of the fascist right

@chadloder

While posting recruitment videos urging American soldiers to join Russia's Wagner Group PMC, is abominable I can't help hoping that members of America's white supremist groups respond and join in droves. They will most likely be killed right along with the other criminals.

@chadloder

you totally undermined your point by appealing to the US government's discretion.
personally dont trust anything the US says regarding hostile, or enemy factions ... they have a very long record of being on the wrong side of history.

Like have you even read Chomsky, bro???

(Noam doing the reading so you dont have to ... )

@3nzof3rrari3 @chadloder Nah, they are very right on this one...
@3nzof3rrari3 Dude wtf are you talking about
@chadloder Horrifying and heartbreaking at the same time. WTF?!
@chadloder
I should have seen this coming, it was obvious/inevitable.

@chadloder

"Dear American Patriots! You spent your careers fighting for the current political catchphrase! Your country is Nazi Satan, and only one country is fighting this evil, and it is Russia! Come fight for the people fighting your country, oh Great American Patriots!"

@chadloder
They will be satisfied if "patriots' fight the homefront
@chadloder and Greenwald, Taibbi, Mate’, Weiss, Fang and the rest of the tankie gang will continue to carry Musk’s water.
@chadloder Lol..i reported the account as a Twitter violation. I am now locked out of Twitter for suspicious activity. I don't have a cell phone to verify so... Guess I should have not done that. 😜
@chadloder just went and checked this out. That is a one big ct bullshit troll. And wont go anywhere, cause musk loves those losers for some reason.
@chadloder did more checking. That account, plus about 80% of followers are made in feb 2022 and many are following each other. This shit is straight from Jessikka Aro's Putin's trolls book.
@pohjolanherra @chadloder Maybe musk feels some likeness to bullshit trolls? 😊
@jofistics @chadloder they give worshipping and act like he is a god, so hell yeah he keeps those near.

@chadloder
That's just targeted marketing...

Edit: /s
I wish the tag wasn't necessary, but...

@chadloder
Elon dumped dozens of far right accounts into my timeline like I followed them, then twitter silently hid, did not deliver , my tweets telling my followets what they had done.

Twitter did not prevented my tweeting, it didnt show rules then prevent tweeting against the rules.

👉They let me tweet, then didnt deliver any of them, to any followers in any time line.👈

@kevinrns @chadloder I was permanently suspended after ten years for being critical of governments and media for ignoring a clearly ongoing pandemic that kills around 500 Australians weekly.
@chadloder Well, American fascists did return home to the Fatherland when Hitler asked them to come. Of course, fascism is much cozier in America now.
@chadloder
Looks like it would be a huge win for the rest of us.
@chadloder All the more reason for the DoJ to investigate. That is, assuming Melatonin Merrick ever wakes up.

@chadloder

Puts to rest any question about Musk's allegiances and political alignment.

@chadloder
Wagner is as neo-Nazi as Azov is.
@Durruti Is Azov running ads on twitter asking for US soldiers to join? Because that sounds bad too
@chadloder
Azov was calling all neo-Nazi groups in Europe to join the war, many responded from France, England, Germany,... a battalion of European neo-Nazis. most of them fell in the mentioned factory months ago
