"Twitter’s decision to delete the videos is still unclear, although it may be related to the rising concerns about the potential harm of violent or graphic content on their platforms.

In a Twitter comment, Elon Musk said he would look into the issue."

What happened to Twitter's "Free Speech" platform?

What Twitter doesn't want you to see:

syrian-1536x864

We'll see what Musk's response is.

Musk hired some leftists to appear non biased. And naturally this is the result...

Western Civilization is dead. When a CIVILIZATION fails to protect its children it is doomed.

Like the Feral Government™, the rank and file of any "tech" company are indoctrinated leftists who prioritizes proselytization over anything else.

This pernicious censorship won't stop until they are all fired.

--- "Western Civilization is dead. When a CIVILIZATION fails to protect its children it is doomed."

You have made a stinging observation. Protecting children has become a BS excuse in the lips of politicians ("It's for the children") when kids being killed is greeted by the same "lips" with "the motive isn't clear."

Showing pics of the perp is different than showing video of him attacking children.

The video is widely available on Twitter.

But I'm not sure how removing video of children being stabbed in their strollers from a public forum is an attack on free speech.

There needs to be a process at Twitter for the deletion of any videos or content with Musk...or a trusted aide...as final arbiter.

Sort of a chain of custody as in handling evidence for a criminal trial. A paper trail and password protected.

You can watch George Floyd’s death, which was broadcast to hundreds of millions of people, because it purports to portray a racist white cop murdering a black man in cold blood. But you can’t watch a Syrian migrant stab women and toddlers at a French playground because doing so would make you racist. Let that sink in,” said Malaysian commentator Ian Miles Cheong.

Turning Point USA Ambassador and conservative commentator Rogan O’Handley aka “DC Draino,” wrote, “Almost every video of the Syrian “refugee” stabbing multiple children in a park in France has been scrubbed from the biggest free speech platform in the world How much you want to bet that order was given by the EU gov’t to hide the violence caused by their open border policies?”

When the George Floyd video came out, it was shown everywhere for months as violent riots destroyed our inner cities But when a migrant goes on a terrorist stabbing spree in France, the video gets completely scrubbed from Twitter almost immediately.”

We used to be more discreet about people’s deaths and not show that moment on TV, for example (real deaths, obviously).

Maybe that is why they are being taken down?

Tough to do man... I ran a forum back in the 90s and it was small potatoes compared to imagined traffic of Twitter. Close to a million posts a day/week. Ain’t no way a few people could do it!! Just saying...

I could not find the video on Twitter, only “This Video Has been Deleted.”

Could you provide a link to the video on Twitter?

Good for the NY Post for posting that.

This type of information should be widely distributed as a warning and not deleted or covered up - or made excuses for.
