“𝕏 IS CAUGHT IN A PROXY WAR”.

Mike Benz - details how the US State Dept is actively working to subvert 𝕏 in Brazil — with the ultimate goal of bringing back the censorship regime of Twitter 1.0 in the US.
Must-listen from Benz:
- The State Department's job is to protect the welfare of US citizen interests, US corporate interests and US national interests in the region. Instead, they just let Brazil seize Starlink's assets.
- X is caught in a proxy war between the State Department and Bolsonaro. You can bet if Bolsonaro had banned Twitter 1.0, the whole litany of our Department of Dirty Tricks toolkit would have been crammed down Bolsonaro’s throat so fast.
- The US wanted Lula to win. It's as simple as that. What's happening in it in Brazil has really much less to do with free speech, as it has to do with the State Department and The Blob’s designs for who needs to win that election.
- After the State Department overthrows a country or runs tens of millions of dollars to to a political opposition and they barely win an election, we have this new policy of "transitional justice" where we arrest all the opposition leaders. Bolsonaro right now is under countless indictments, just as Trump is here.
- They then prevent the mobilization and the coordination of the defeated party's resurgence. They can't get their messaging out. So it's a very nasty playbook.
- The US is doing this with foreign countries in order to contort the economics of the US X platform, to force them to put the pre-2022 censorship mechanisms back in place.
