How were they right? the story has been confirmed to be legitimate by organizations like politico and the guardian. Hunter Biden himself admitted the laptop may have been his."Rotten" because it looks bad and goes against your bias doesn't make it worthy of censorship. Social media censoring a NY post journalist over this was censorship. Period.
> It would significantly help your point if the conspiracies you were citing were not plain old unsubstantiated bullshit.What's unsubstantiated about it? Jack Dorsey admitted he censored the story from the New York Post incorrectly and only after the election did they reinstate the ability to share the article.The computer shop owner who had the laptop had the signed receipt from Hunter Biden. Hunter himself admitted he's under investigation by the FBI for tax fraud.The dru
Pretty much everything about Hunter Biden that was decried as "disinformation" or "Russian propaganda" has turned out to be true. The laptop story was squelched just prior to the election.https://nypost.com/2022/04/01/new-york-times-finally-admit-h...<a href="https:
That message isn't as generic as it seems. It was introduced for political censorship, to suppress information detrimental to Biden. This is mainly the content of Hunter Biden's laptop hard drive, which wasn't even hacked. (he abandoned it, subject to state law and a computer repair contract) There was also a GMail account of a former business partner that was voluntarily turned over to reporters.Stories about the laptop occasionally show up on HN, quickly flagged into oblivion
> The Biden family tried to get what is effectively revenge porn taken down from Twitter before he was elected.I don't understand why this gets so oft repeated. The Post article (https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/email-reveals-how-hunter-biden...) contains nothing resembling porn. There are some pict
What was the whole "Hunter Biden laptop" debacle about if not precisely this?
Hunter Biden laptop story was legit & censoring it across all social media simultaneously was absurd. Considering his financial connections to Ukraine & current events it’s even more fucked up that it was censored.
A falsehood like the emails on Hunter Biden's laptop that implicated Joe Biden in a Ukrainian money laundering scheme? A story that got countless people and news outlets banned for daring to discuss? A story that we were told was "Ze Russians" manipulating us, and a story that of course turned out to be true.I feel so protected knowing I wasn't allowed to discuss that story during election season. Not that I would have voted for the ineffectual Trump anyway, but still..
You’re getting played by NBC. Their story is totally separate from the Hunter Biden laptop / Bobulinski testimony. They deliberately mention the other story in an attempt to discredit it by association.To date, the only on the public record (in an interview, not testimony) statements are in favor of the allegations and evidence being true. The Biden’s have not public denied any of it. They, with the assistance of the media, simple delay and deflect.
The Hunter Biden story wasn't misinformation.
