Devin Nunes, the CEO of Trumps TRUTH network, a former California politician who once sued an imaginary cow over a Twitter beef, recently declared that the upcoming conservative conversation chamber would be the most family-friendly of all social media sites.<\/p>\n
In order to accomplish this, Nunes says the companys hired the same artificial intelligence moderation firm as OnlyFans.<\/p>\n
Yes MAGA fans, Trumps TRUTH will be censored using the same technology as every other social media site.<\/p>\n
Oh the irony: Hive, the AI firm in question, serves numerous high-profile clients including Reddit, Parler, and the aforementioned OnlyFans. And, according to its own website, its very good at censoring posts that break its clients terms of service.<\/p>\n
Per a report from Fox Business:<\/p>\n
Hive co-founder and CEO Kevin Guo told Fox Business that his companys AI model will be used for TRUTH Social to offer content moderation for posts to ensure sexually-explicit content, and posts that include violence, bullying, hate speech, and spam never make it to the platform.<\/p>\n
Playing devils advocate: Banning sexually-explicit content and posts that include violence we understand. But who gets to decide what is and isnt bullying, hate-speech, or spam?<\/p>\n
Choosing Devin Nunes to both run the company as CEO and rule over its content with an iron fist as censorship czar seems like a bold choice. The entire premise of TRUTH, is built around free speech and the free exchange of ideas unfettered by censorship.<\/p>\n
Nunes is well-known in conservative circles as being a die-hard Trump ally. But hes perhaps best known for being the guy who spent years trying to sue an imaginary cow and a parody of his mom on Twitter.<\/p>\n
In a $250 million lawsuit, the California conservative claimed the parody accounts had defamed him.<\/p>\n
Per a report from the Washington Post:<\/p>\n
Heres a sampling of the tweets he alleges are defamatory, using language directly from the lawsuit Fox obtained:<\/p>\n
Devin Nunes cow has made, published and republished hundreds of false and defamatory statements of and concerning Nunes, including the following: Nunes is a treasonous cowpoke.<\/p>\n
Devins boots are full of manure. Hes udder-ly worthless and its pasture time to move him to prison.<\/p>\n
In her endless barrage of tweets, Devin Nunes Mom maliciously attacked every aspect of Nunes character, honesty, integrity, ethics and fitness to perform his duties as a United States Congressman.<\/p>\n
@DevinNunesMom falsely stated that Nunes was unfit to run the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.<\/p>\n
@DevinNunesMom falsely stated that Nunes was voted Most Likely to Commit Treason in high school. <\/p>\n
@DevinNunesMom falsely claimed that Nunes would probably see an indictment before 2020.<\/p>\n
He seems fun: Between the AI-powered censorship (which is demonstrably more prone to bias and negative outcomes than human moderators) and Nunes apparent belief that mocking him should carry a $250 million penalty, its going to be hilarious watching TRUTHs content moderation strategy play out.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately for right wingers who believe Free Speech somehow means a private company is forced to host their rhetoric, the dream of uncensored social media remains unrealized and it doesnt appear as though Trumps latest grift effort will change that.<\/p>\n
One need look no further than its closest cousin, GETTR, which was founded by ardent Trump sycophant Jason Miller.<\/p>\n
GETTR became the belle of the conservative ball when podcaster and horse dewormer advocate Joe Rogan declared it his backup plan in case Twitter banned him.<\/p>\n
But that love affair lasted less than a month before Rogan got hip to the fact that GETTR was funded with Chinese money and adding Twitter user counts to fudge follower numbers.<\/p>\n
In a recent interview for The Tim Dillon Show, Rogan called the practices fuckery and stated that he didnt know how to get off the platform.<\/p>\n
On the bright side for MAGA fans, GETTR still has Marjorie Taylor Greene. And, in all fairness, Trumps TRUTH network also used a Chinese firm to organize its funding.<\/p>\n
Lol dont worry MAGA die-hards, Twitter will still be there when you inevitably decide to come back.<\/p>\n
