Who Told Twitter to Ban Stanford Scientists?

Joe Rogan and Cody Tucker discussed one of the most disturbing parts of the Twitter purchase, the email review that followed. Journalists went through emails between executives at Twitter and intelligence agencies.

The intelligence agencies were actively censoring accounts and directing Twitter to remove accounts. The posts carried factual information that was inconvenient to the COVID policies of the administration. The same pressure hit legitimate scientists from Stanford and MIT. The order was to ban them and take them off.

Joe Rogan and Cody Tucker took up whether any real right way exists. The exchange includes the view that people may be doing it the best, the most right way it could be done, and that this is terrifying if it is true.
