Republicans have slammed the new Twitter CEO who boasted last year that the company is 'not bound by the First Amendment' while a 2010 tweet has today resurfaced in which he appears to call all white people racist.Parag Agrawal, 45, was named the new CEO of the social media giant early on Monday, after serving as the company's chief technology officer since 2017.But he is already found himself under fire after an old, controversial tweet resurfaced today.'If they are not gonna make a distinction between Muslims and extremists, then why should I distinguish between white people and racists?'

Sounds like this guy has so little respect for our country, he may run Twitter past the point of no return.
If not hellbound, a fast track to irrelevance.

if I were a Twitter Twerp I would be vacating that activity with great haste. Jack "The Mad Monk" Dorsey was bad enough but this guy sounds like he has a chip on his shoulder the size of a Giant Sequoia tree. I used to like going to San Jose back in the early 2000's but probably wouldn't recognize the place, today. Always flew in to San Jose Mineta Int'l then a quick hop onto the 101 and south to Monterey. The traffic was ridiculous.

One day I heard my husband laughing hysterically, and he called me over. A buddy of his sent him a link to a Titter group entitled something like "Big Boobs Falling". It was post after post of women pulling up their tops and their big breasts would fall out. I know it was supposed to be "titillating" or something, but it was just so funny and pathetic.
That told me everything I ever needed to know about Twitter. I actually had a Twitter account once that I used one time to enter a contest. But when they dropped President Trump, I was gone. And, no, I will never be back. I don't need stupid and evil in my life any more than I have to have it there!!!

As I posted on an earlier thread - - Parag Agrawal spelled backwards is Lawarga Garap.
Try to remember that.

I'm guessing the old racist twit CEO has made enough money or this paradawg person is a front man. Talk about racist. He's such a tool.

Twitter is for Twits, PERIOD.
Time to disconnect this dysfunctional company from all govt. regulated services for violating OUR RIGHTS!
Fiber, Wire, Satellite, Microwave, Radio, Television, Cable...did I miss anything? Their stock price should then reflect their actual worth...$0.00
While we're talking about this, all the Woke Corporations/Tech Giants get the same treatment. Good Luck with your Marketing that NO one will see.
ON top of that, the Criminal Leftist 'News' CNN, PMSDNC, ABS, CBS, NBS, NPR...etc. gets the same treatment...AND the supposed News Papers that print, can't deliver or sell over publically owned sidewalks/roads, PERIOD!

the usual character traits of a "successful" mal-adjusted (closet capitalist) socialist leftist are; anger. vindictiveness. verbal (maybe physical as well) violence. self loathing. and personal hygiene issues. Pushing "collective guilt" on Whites is the usual weapon of a collectivist.

Hmnnn! so Rasputin is stepping down ...not buyin' it..on a side note..was listening to the radio this afternoon and one of my Congressmen was commenting on that information..and he mentioned when Dorsey came in to testify before Congress..he looked like a homeless person..showing that he had no respect for the situation..
anyone that doesn't think he has a screw loose is not paying attention. to quote my Dad..there is a fine line between genius and insanity!!

The imbeciles who write for the Daily Mail, UK must be paid by the word... Their work is always a slog...I only could get thru half the article and I swear I read the same sentence 5 times, in different areas of the article. Maybe the English are that dumb or there is indoctrination intended, gotta be one or the other.

Why should Twitter act any differently if people continue to submit to their nonsense and they continue to make money? Get off of Twitter and onto other platforms or you have no one to blame but yourselves.

#2, that will not solve the problem. These woke corporations will gladly lose revenue to support their leftist agenda. They do not fear consumers. They fear being on the wrong side of their peers. The entire democrat agenda hinges on bullying and intimidation. Their biggest fear is to lose their standing in the democrat party. Like a bunch of high schoolers, being included with the cool kids is the most important consideration for them especially those in the younger generation. It is all about the collective for them. They must be part of the hive regardless of the cost.
It is a shame that anyone with this guys views could head a major American corporation. However, we have passed the time that loyalty to this country and its Constitution actually mean anything to these corporate bullies. The most radical and anti-American zealots now head these companies and they fear no one or nothing when they spew their anti-American diatribes. Sadly, we accept this language and this is what has so weakened this country. In a few years ago, a guy with this man’s political views would not be hired. Today, they are celebrated. And look where that has gotten us. Most of our young people do not even know who we are, why the country was founded, and why the principles on which we were founded is critical to a free society. All they know is how to conform.

FTA: 'Hopefully someone who believes in free speech and our Constitution will take the reins and reinstate the tons of Americans unfairly banned.' That won't happen. These leaders of the Evil Left live to tyranize the Deplorables.

This Agrawal is a real piece of work, no? Rather odd that he hails from the Indian Institute of Technology and comes across as a lefty. Having business traveled extensively to India when I was a working man, I can say that the Mumbai area where he comes from is very conservative. However, different story in Delhi and in India's tech hub to the south in Hyderabad where the russkies left their permanent mark of communism. But, I also see that the guy was indoctrinated at Lefty University aka Stanford.

If I hear one more so-called Conservative politician or radio/t.v. commentator say: "Follow me on Twitter and like me on Facebook!" I'm going to scream and smash my screen. I'm talking to you Laura, Sean, Varney, Dobbs, Levin, et. al.
If you feed the Beast you can't cry when it bites you!
No one truly concerned about our country's course should be on Twitter (or even Facebook). It's like complaining about the trash and decadence in our culture while on your way into a house of ill repute!

Don't kid yourself about Republicans doing anything as a ''group'' because they cannot all agree that the sun actually sets in the West. GOP isn't a monolith like the DNC is. DNC is more like the Viet Cong! (Willing to wear an enemy uniform to blend in for surveillance, ala January 6th.)

I think this was the guy that called me in CA to tell me I should give him my social security number because he was from the IRS and I hadn't paid my taxes. I think he said I owed something like $200, so I played along and asked him for his name. Why do all these guys calling from India with a thick accent call themselves "Jim" "Dave" "Joe"? When I was through playing, I blew a whistle into the receiver and hung up. So much fun!

I used to use Twitter. Got kicked off because I tweeted something Jack Dorsey didn't agree with politically and haven't been back. Dorsey can take his totalitarian self to hell and Parag can accompany him.
