Not wanting to be manipulated = bullying?
What makes you so sure you are being manipulated? And what makes you think he wants to be a public figure in the first place?
The fact that he was the former head of Twitter's censorship operation, that he publicly attacks Elon Musk while wrapping himself in the prestige of his former position, and that he likes to go on stage and talk about his former job.
Anyway, not sure what him wanting to be a public figure or not, even though he does, has anything to do with it. My point is just that because he is a public figure at this point, death threats are unfortunately expected. As the former head of Twitter Trust and Safety, he knows that too. So his decision to make a media story out of it is in all likelihood nothing more than him trying to get a favorable news cycle out of it.

#24“…the Twitter Files, a series of tweets by conservative journalists Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss.” Two interesting moves to observe here: 1. Matt Taibbi is not a conservative and anyone who is at all familiar with him or his work knows he is left-leaning. Calling him a conservative is a signal to their audience that he is one of the “bad guys.” 2. Calling this reporting “a series of tweets” is not false but is subtly d…
He's about as left-leaning as Tim Pool, which is someone who claims to be left-leaning while promoting right-wing ideals.

No they don't. You know media stories can also lead the perpetrator's friends and family to report them realizing how serious the crime is.

> Calling this reporting “a series of tweets” is not false but is subtly demeaning to the work. How is repeating information fed to you by the tech billionaire who’s platform your publishing on worth dignifying as actual journalistic effort? They’re glorified mouthpieces. I used to have a lot more respect for taibbi, but he’s spending that down faster and faster these days.
As opposed to the fiercely independent journalists at the New York Times and Washington Post who would never regurgitate Democratic Party propaganda? Give me a break.
I'm sure Elon chose them because he thought they were sympathetic. So what?

The New York Times is an establishment mouthpiece, not Democratic. The message they regurgitate is the ongoing power of the US over the world. They happen to align with the democrats now because the democrats represent the establishment, while the republicans are trying to overturn that.
