Zuck flying to Kabul for urgent talks over this critical endorsement deal
From "free speech absolutist" to "free speech extremist" 😃
Pure comedy. Twitter vs threads has been extremely entertaining
Anyone remember the movie Middle Men (2009), a film based on Christopher Mallick's experience running an internet billing company that managed payments for paid porn sites? The film bombed at the box office, but there was one scene of interest which, in relevance to Haqqani's complaining is a good reminder as to why his complains about Meta are a moot point considering what happens to terrorists who use the internet. (Might be a little NSFW)

Lol the leader of the taliban looks like a French designer
This just reinforces my opinion of the Taliban as been jerks.
I'm not sure this is the kind of endorsement I would want.
This is like the always sunny episode where Boko Haram endorses Wolf Cola.
So the alt-right and nazis flock to threads and the taliban endorse twitter. It just seems like losers all around.
I'm confident that the Taliban would never endorse me and I like it that way.
“Twitter has two important advantages over other social media platforms,” Haqqani said in an English post on Twitter. “The first privilege is the freedom of speech. The second privilege is the public nature & credibility of Twitter. Twitter doesn't have an intolerant policy like Meta. Other platforms cannot replace it.”
I.. am out of words...
"Twitter, if it's good enough for the Taliban, it's good enough for you."
“We like any place where the leader declares cisgender to be a slur.”
What a glowing review!
Why not get those quirky Taliban guys over to America for a Twitter ad campaign, Elon. He could probably throw in a tour of Space X launch site or the Tesla car factory in Texas? (Just keep all the female employees out of sight, shh, mums the word...)
No idea why people are still buying Teslas when the Taliban are literally a fan of the CEO.
