Anas Haqqani, a senior leader in the Taliban, has officially endorsed Twitter over Facebook-owned competitor Threads.
“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.”
Twitter has fallen out of favor with many people since Elon Musk took over the company last year…The Taliban, however, seems to love it. Two Taliban officials even bought blue verification check marks after Musk started selling them in January.
Haqqani noted that the biggest draw of Twitter was this lax moderation policy…Facebook and TikTok both view the Taliban as a terrorist organization and disallow them from posting. It’s a ban that persists to this day.

Pretty funny to see a member of the Taliban espouse freedom of speech. I really doubt that
It’s just like Elons definition. To these people freedom of speech means freedom to say what they want and not be challenged by pesky things like facts.
Freedom from consequence for me but not for thee
I bet facebook/ meta paid them to endorse the birdsite.
I’m sure you’re probably joking, but in case you weren’t, that would set Meta up for some federal crime type of trouble.
Good thing businesses don’t regularly break laws and just pay a relatively small fee in order to continue doing business. /s
Snark aside, I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if Zuckerfuck could afford to either just pay the fines or bribe public officials to letting this happen.

Oh good. I’m glad to hear this. It seems as though the Christian and Muslim extremists approve of twitter. I know exactly where I won’t be going.
