Twitter's self-awareness is that of a cactus

You've heard the overused term 'you can't make this stuff up.' Well Twitter has people saying that and it shows the social media giant's total lack of self-awareness to the point it makes you laugh and be angry simultaneously.

The statement Twitter made regarding the Ugandan election, just prior to permanently banning President Trump from its platform, is almost too hypocritical to believe, but they meant what they pontificated to the African nation, optics be damned.

Here's the story: just days after Twitter permanently banning President Donald Trump from its platform, Twitter posted their thoughts about "freedom of expression" and "access to information" regarding the Ugandan election. Normal people who read the post either laughed at the hypocrisy or were amazed at Twitter having the balls to pontificate about the exact thing they are guilty of doing to the President of the United States of America.

The post stated:

"Ahead of the Ugandan election, we're hearing reports that Internet service providers are being ordered to block social media and messaging apps," Twitter Public Policy began. "We strongly condemn internet shutdowns — they are hugely harmful, violate basic human rights and the principles of the #OpenInternet."

But not so much for President Trump and a bunch of conservatives with different political and cultural views.

Twitter Public Policy next added: 

"Earlier this week, in close coordination with our peers, we suspended a number of accounts targeting the election in Uganda. If we can attribute any of this activity to state-backed actors, we will disclose to our archive of information operations."  

Then came the the incredible, blatant hypocrisy: 

"Access to information and freedom of expression, including the public conversation on Twitter, is never more important than during democratic processes, particularly elections."

Huh? Are you freaking kidding us?

When leaders from Germany, France and Mexico condemn banning Trump from social media, all leaders who are not fond of Trump, you know there's a "freedom problem" in the United States.

The anti-American values of the far-left didn't see it as a problem but they're too stupid to see that their loss of freedom will soon come for them.

Many normal people hit back at Twitter for what they said about the Ugandan election:

"Are there no mirrors at Twitter?" TheBlaze's Jessica O'Donnell asked. 

"High comedy!" conservative filmmaker Dinesh D'Souza exclaimed. "You can't make this stuff up."

My personal favorite:

"Twitter's like: 'Don't restrict people's speech, that's our job,'" another user said.

So Twitter shuts down the New York Post for a story they don't want going public, then bans prominent conservatives and President Donald Trump from their platform, and think they own the moral high ground to lecture Uganda?

If you don't see the unintentional humor in Twitter's virtue signaling, you need to pay closer attention. I will continue posting Brain Flushings on Twitter, at least until they ban all conservative narratives. Perhaps you'll subscribe to this blog and others as you see fit. I really hope you will because it's only a matter of time when the voices on the right will be hard to hear.

Please subscribe and look for other voices too. 

C'mon, man, gimme a break. You know you want to follow Brain Flushings--it's free and worth every penny, no joke. And remember, every time you click on an ad, an angel gets its wings and a liberal sheds a tear. C'mon, check out the ads and give them a good, hard clicking.
