Twitter is not in business to make a profit or to give people free speech, but to do “something that’s good for the planet,” a company employee can be heard saying in a secretly recorded video.
The new undercover footage from Project Veritas features Lead Client Partner Alex Martinez discussing the company’s authoritarian views on speech, and denigrating Tesla CEO Elon Musk as a “loony toon” with “special needs.”
Martinez told a Project Veritas undercover reporter that Twitter wants to be “as fair, and transparent, and accurate as possible,” but noted that a “level of censorship” was required to keep the information on the platform accurate.
“Right now, we don’t make profit,” he noted, explaining that the company’s liberal ideology “led us into not being profitable.”
“The rest of us who have been here believe in something that’s good for the planet and not to give people free speech,” he declared.
Martinez explained that Twitter employees view censorship as a way to correct people who “don’t know how to make a rational decision.”
“People don’t know how to make a rational decision if you don’t put out—correct things that are supposed to be out in the public, right?” he said.
The conversation was released Tuesday night as billionaire Elon Musk was still reevaluating his plan to take over the platform. Twitter’s board last month agreed to sell the company to Musk for $44 billion, but the Tesla CEO has since put the deal is on hold while he studies the number of spam and bot accounts on the platform.Martinez admitted that Musk’s desire to return Twitter to its roots as “a platform for free speech” could lead the company to make a profit again, but didn’t seem pleased about the prospect.“If we’re implementing all these rules…and Elon wants to dismantle them, then technically our ideology has […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
