musk bought twitter at the behest of the SAUDIS who were getting too much blowback for butchering Kashoggi, the AMERICAN right wing tyranny support fucking with liberals is just a bonus

[โ€“] ours@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

For those who aren't aware of the link between Kashoggi's murder, Twitter and Saudi Arabia I would recommend watching The Dissident.

And while speaking of bastard organizations, I can't help but mention the Israeli "Pegasus" who made the software used to spy and facilitate his brutal murder (you use of the term "butcher" is sadly more accurate).
