Twitter deal temporarily on hold pending details supporting calculation that spam/fake accounts do indeed represent less than 5% of users


Is this publicity stunt nearing its end?

The WH Twitter account pulled down a tweet that said that there were no vaccines until President Biden took office.

Interesting…he got the first jab around 12/12/2020.

It took them most of the day to fact check themselves.

The number of lies he tells is growing. Even WaPo is noting some of them.

Racist Tucker Carlson “Great Replacement theory” fan shoots up Buffalo supermarket. Murders at least 8 black people.

Expect our righties to try to “memory hole” this one. Goes against their narrative.

The shooter by report is 18 and unidentified; where do you get the notion that he's a Fox fan?

(other than the obvious, i.e. him personifying contempt / hatred for blacks by summarily executing them out of hand).

Two of these quotes are from Tucker Carlson. One is from the murderer’s manifesto.

Can you guess which is which?

1.


2.


3.

I would guess 1 and 3 are Tucker Carlson, they are phrased in a way that sounds like he talks (at least reading them in my head).

He likes to say "Nobody is allowed to ask the question" (after asking the question). (for 3)
And, I have heard him say a similar quote comparing marriage to immigration in a debate so that sounds like a talking point of his (for 1).

2 just does not seem to be in his tone when I read it. It sounds like a similar point, but just not the way he talks. (Of course, if these quotes are from writings, then my chain of logic goes out the window, but I am assuming they are all from speaking).
