Anas Haqqani, a senior leader in the Taliban, has officially endorsed Twitter over Facebook-owned competitor Threads.
“Twitter has two important advantages over other social media platforms,” Haqqani said in an English post on Twitter. “The first privilege is the freedom of speech. The second privilege is the public nature & credibility of Twitter. Twitter doesn’t have an intolerant policy like Meta. Other platforms cannot replace it.”
Twitter has fallen out of favor with many people since Elon Musk took over the company last year…The Taliban, however, seems to love it. Two Taliban officials even bought blue verification check marks after Musk started selling them in January.
Haqqani noted that the biggest draw of Twitter was this lax moderation policy…Facebook and TikTok both view the Taliban as a terrorist organization and disallow them from posting. It’s a ban that persists to this day.
This is so sad that it’s fucking hilarious. Now we have social media competing for the fucking worst human beings on the planet to join their platform. It just goes to show how being an evil asshole is profitable. 😼
Pretty funny to see a member of the Taliban espouse freedom of speech. I really doubt that
It’s just like Elons definition. To these people freedom of speech means freedom to say what they want and not be challenged by pesky things like facts.
I remember back around 2012-2013 ISIS using twitter to post gore videos and twitter was lazy asf about dealing with it
social media sites give 0 fucks about properly moderating anything but popular euro languages
I always figured Twitter was working with the US government by keeping those accounts open, helping them track location and whatnot.
Terrorists like Elon Musk. That seems like his plan.
😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀💀
