Summary

"The more I learn, the worse it gets," says Elon Musk, as he peels away the layers of censorship & deplatforming on Twitter. Recently, Eliza Bleu and Dr. Jay Bhattacharya – frequent guests on Ask Dr. Drew – were vindicated by new Twitter Files that revealed the secret suppression of their accounts was happening at the same time that Twitter was egregiously mishandling child safety. Twitter is a private company that can censor anything it chooses: why obfuscate the truth, unless they knew their manipulation was biased? Why dedicate resources to censoring Stanford professors and the inventor of mRNA while networks of predators were running free?
