This is a breaking story, so the 24-hour rule applies: All reports within the first 24 hours are suspect. But we will strive to give you the most accurate information.
All day today we have been talking about how Twitter interfered with plans to show Matt Walsh’s documentary ‘What is a Woman?’ discussing transgender ideology, here and here.
As of about a quarter after 8 p.m. Daily Wire attempted to post the movie on Twitter and this is the result.
You can apparently watch the movie if you go to their Twitter page. But if you attempt to Retweet it, you get this message:
If you attempt to share it, you get this message (which is why we can’t even embed the Tweet on this website).
There is, however, a limited exception to this ‘no share’ rule:
Since that Tweet was Retweeted by the Daily Wire, we’re going to take that as an endorsement of that tactic. And we have tested it for ourselves, and it works (despite our typo):
As of this writing, a person can retweet, quote tweet or otherwise share the Mr. Monroe’s Tweet and our own:
Obviously, events are moving quickly and that might change at any moment. For instance, those Tweets sharing the video might have their own visibility reduced. Who knows?
So, what is going on? This is purely speculation, but we have long believed that there were still some ‘dead enders’ at Twitter who still love censorship with the heat of a thousand suns. Maybe they were hoping that Musk would eventually leave, or turn his attention away. Maybe they just hoped to sneak things into the code. But this seems to have brought at least some of them into the open in sort of a kamikaze run to try to stop you from seeing this movie. Naturally, such people deserve the full Streisand Effect.
And Musk seems to believe he has a ‘dead ender’ problem. When the Babylon Bee tweeted this out:
Musk replied with:
But more substantively, this happened this evening:
Was she one of those suspected dead enders? We don’t pretend to know, and naturally even if Musk thinks she is, that doesn’t prove she is one.
Meanwhile, Elon Musk has repeatedly assured people that this situation will be fixed. Here are some examples of people complaining, with Musk responding:
For his part, Walsh is understandably frustrated:
This is naturally a fast-moving story, and the documentary comes highly recommended to us. In all frankness, we asked the friend who recommended it if it was just ‘preaching to the choir,’ and he indicated there was more to see than just telling us what we already believed. As you might have noticed above, it is free for 24 hours only—if the Daily Wire doesn’t choose to extend it.
For ourselves, we are going to take a listen this evening as we attend to other things.
We will keep you updated if there are further developments.
