(Revolver) We all held high hopes for Twitter when Elon Musk stepped in and purchased the platform.
While his intentions seemed good, with his heart was in the right place, he’s quickly discovering that America may not be as free as he thought she was. When it comes down to it, the shots aren’t being called by the Constitution, but by woke companies like Apple, Amazon, and Chase. Sadly, that’s why Twitter isn’t turning into the bastion of free speech we had hoped for, thanks to the crew who’s taking over the helm. And one of the biggest standouts is Aaron Rodericks, a flaming liberal who’s now heading up “censorship.”
Here’s what Mike Benz, the founder of the Foundation for Freedom Online, had to say about this “double-agent.”
Twitter’s current censorship recruiter Aaron Rodericks promotes the most scandalous censorship agency in the federal gov’t: DHS’s CISA.
And he backs up CISA’s head of “mis, dis & malinformation” subcommittee, Kate Starbird.
He’s actively working against Musk’s professed vision https://t.co/KD1zLTtIFv

He’s working under a false banner of free speech, but his past posts reveal that he despises everything that genuine free speech stands for. What’s truly concerning is that this “double-agent” persona may enable him to continue this tactic for an extended period. It seems that conservatives are being lulled into a false sense of freedom, and that’s concerning.
The “censorship” Czar might despise everything you represent, but we’re confident he’ll approach things with complete fairness and unbiased judgment—yeah, right.
Twitter’s election censorship recruiter, Aaron Rodericks, basically hates you.
“the ginger-bearded guy whining about welfare queens and high taxes” (he means @AintGottaDollar)
“the Daily Wire freaks” (he means @benshapiro)

Meet the new X — it’s basically the same as the old Twitter.
Linda Yaccarino’s censorship squad recruiter at X, Aaron Rodericks, promotes Kate Starbird — one of the chief architects of the mass censorship of the 2020 election & 2022 midterms.
100% of the “repeat misinformation spreaders” Starbird labeled were Trump supporters. pic.twitter.com/0qczkuRG2j

Here’s a closeup of the images:
And here’s a photo of Aaron from his X profile:
We’re not convinced that this situation will unfold any differently than our last nightmarish encounters with Twitter under Jack and Parag’s progressive leadership. We’re dealing with the same dubious cast, operating under a new clever guise of “free speech.” Meanwhile, Elon’s new CEO has made it clear that content deemed “lawful but awful” will be censored and suppressed. Who determines what’s awful? Her team of blue-haired liberals, of course.
