Lefty 'philosopher' Sam Harris has deleted his Twitter account, just days after he claimed that the New York Post report on the infamous Hunter Biden laptop was correct "by accident," a comment that renewed scrutiny of Harris' previous comments that he supported censorship of the story.
Harris complained on the Bill Maher podcast that he was being harassed by 'right wing lunatics' on Twitter in regards to his previous comments that he would still have supported censoring the story even if Hunter Biden had "the corpses of dead children in his basement," as a way of preventing a second Trump term.

Musk also announced some details on the new $8 Twitter verification system:
Comment: At one point, Sam Harris was an interesting pundit whose ideas, although often missing the mark, were at least worth entertaining. But his meteoric fall into peak TDS has warped him into a comical shell of his former self. It's doubtful he'll be missed by many on Twitter.
