Amazingly, this actress actually understands why the democrat party purge of conservative social media is going to be really bad...

[BluesLegend]

The left are 100% intolerant of any opposing views.

Says the guy who supports the rioters...

You are a liar go wash your filthy lying mouth out with soap dummy.

I do not like Trump, but clearly banning him from Twitter, which relies entirely on providing a front end for a public communications network, is entirely and completely illegal.
The precedent is absurdly evil, in that it allows private companies to arbitrarily decide who can campaign or not, which is in total violation of the intent of the 1st amendment.
And it should be obvious that no democratic republic could ever exist or survive, if that were allowed.
It is Twitter that then should be banned from its public Internet access.

Trump campaigned on Twitter for four years.

And it is illegal to ever prevent anyone from campaigning on Twitter as long as anyone campaigns on Twitter.
You either have equality of access or you have an arbitrary dictatorship.

He didn't get banned for campaigning.

If one was calling for the violent overthrow of a current government, that would still be campaigning.
Any attempt to gain support for any political belief is campaigning.
Doesn't mean one has to be running for a specific office.

As long as one is not calling for the abuse of the inherent individual rights of anyone, Twitter should have stayed out of it.
They do not have that right and there is no need.

Really? When has the left attacked and beaten news reporters? When has the left called the press the "enemy of the people". When has the left called reports critical of the President "fake news". When has the left held rallies where the speakers have vilified and attacked members of the press, from the podium?

The left are the enemy, next question.

How many BLM protestors attacked and beat members of the press this summer, like we saw members of the press being attacked and beaten at the Capital Building yesterday.

You have no idea how every law and order concept, and Constitutional or democratic argument that supporters of Wednesday's attempted coup have just blown up, but the idea that the left is the one who opposes the free exchange of ideas is one of them.

The left doesn't oppose the free exchange of ideas, they oppose the free dissemination of propaganda and lies by the right. The fiction that there was widespread election fraud is a lie. It's a lie that Donald Trump is trying to use to overthrow the legally elected government of the United States of America. This isn't a matter of opinion or free speech, it is a simple fact, as proven by every reasonable standard of truth and facts.

Donald Trump has cynically used this lie in a naked attempt to cling to power. Not because he has a plan to get the nation back on track in the pandemic, or to help the people now lining up at food banks and desperately waiting for the economic assistance recently passed, or to end the death and suffering, but rather to keep himself and his family out of jail after four years of a crime spree of epic proportions.

The Republican Party no longer has any other purpose than to maitain power at all costs, and if that means an authoritarian dictatorship, they're all for it. Republicans who are prepared to respect the results of elections, are leaving Trump's Republican Party, many after having supporting Trump and voting not to convict him at his first impeachment, are now prepared to vote for impeachment and removal now. Too little, too late, after having enabled this criminal for the past 4 years.

The Republican Party no longer believes in elections, or voters' rights. One of those rights is to get the government they voted for, not the government that only the white people voted for, but the government that ALL of the people voted for.

This week, the President of the United States and the Republican Party, tried to force states to throw out votes from minority neighbourhoods, in order to ensure the re-election of a white supremacist regime. Welcome to Apartheid. The Republican Party, in it's attempt to overthrow the democratic principles upon which the nation was founded, has rendered itself as a traitor to Founding Fathers, who enshrined the principles of a representative republic based on free and fair elections.

Donald Trump led a seditious assault on those principles, when he incited a mob to stop the certificaton of the results of an election removing himself from power. Such attacks were not only on the Capital in Washington, but in similar attempts in State Houses across the country to stop the seating of legally elected members of the Democratic Party by questioning the results of their elections, but not the results of their own elections.

You are so blind........

obama spied on reporters, antifa and blm beat up reporters you fucking doofus. The left wing democrat pres made up fake news about Trump....for 5 years, you moron.

The left is ending free speech...you idiot.......

But but but it's Different when Dems do it.

 

[pknopp]

...

Yeah. I'm suppose to support things I disagree with? How does that work?

Yes, we all are supposed to support the expression of ideas we disagree with.
The idea being that in the open and free market place of opposing ideas, that eventually the right ones will inherently win all on their own, due to their own merits, and not due to any outside use of force to make one win over any other.

{...
John Stuart Mill's writings in On Liberty, published in 1859, is thought to be the origin of translating market competition into a theory of free speech. Mill argues against censorship and in favor of the free flow of ideas. Asserting that no alone knows the truth, or that no one idea alone embodies either the truth or its antithesis, or that truth left untested will slip into dogma, Mill claims that the free competition of ideas is the best way to separate falsehoods from fact. (Photo of John Stuart Mill circa 1870 by the London Stereoscopic Company, public domain)

Marketplace of Ideas

The marketplace of ideas refers to the belief that the test of the truth or acceptance of ideas depends on their competition with one another and not on the opinion of a censor.

Trump can say whatever he wants. He has the biggest stage in the world. Should I be able to get the same stage to say what I want?

Just because Trump is laying low doesn't mean he is unable to say whatever he darn well pleases.

Good point.
The fact Trump was using Twitter so much was weird, and more than anyone ever has or likely should.
Still, private companies relying on public utilities should not get a say in what goes over the network, as long as it is not criminal.

Everything relies on "public utilities".

"Peaceful George Floyd Protest Marred by Bursts of Violence

Will the Communist State Run media call the Capitol protests, "The PEACEFUL Capitol protest marred by occasional bursts of violence"????

What "communist state run media"? The mainstream media is all publically owned, and has a Board of Directors answerable to that public ownership, as well as journalistic standards of verification and fact checking. Ownership by shareholders, who hold management accountable via their Board of Directors is the very anthithesis of "communist state run media".

The right wing billionaire owned media is the direct opposite, and their fact check record shows it. The broadcast right wing lies. FOX News promoted Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi 24/7 on their network and all you got out of it was 7 investigations, none of which faulted the Obama Administration for what happened.

Why not do genuine oversight which benefits the American people and helps their government function better, instead of using over sight to promulagate Republican lies and rumours about Democrats? Republicans didn't spend 6 1/2 years investigation Bill Clinton because of any genuine concern about possible criminal behaviour by the Clintons, they did so because Clinton's economic record on unemployement, wages, budget management, and the stock market was demonstrably better and more successful than Reagan's, and that legacy had to be destroyed.

The Republican Party of Donald Trump proved this week that it will do ANYTHING, including launch an undemocratic coup against the legally elected government of, for and by the people, to maintain its white supremacist rule.

Trump sent his mob to kill Mike Pence and the rest of those "disloyal" to his rule. His hand picked men in the Pentagon, blocked interference from police forces from within and from outside the state from coming to the aid of the lawmakers who were under assault, as did leaders of the Capital police force.

Despite the presence of DC National Guard on high alert, and officers from the FBI, the DC Police, DHS, ATF, and other quasi-military branches of the federal government, the first government force to come to the aid of the Capital, were the Maryland National Guard.

This wasn't a peaceful demonstration that went amok, this was a carefully planned and orchestrated assault on American democracy, by the President of the United States, and violent elements of the fringe right, which the President has been stoking since before his election, starting with his refusal to disavow David Duke and the KKK, aided and abetted by the right wing billionaire media.

The purge came early this year....they aren't even waiting for kamala harris to replace joe "the rapist" biden in office.....

democrat party big tech is purging conservatives from social media and the internet......one actress understands why this is going to end in blood and tears...

As many on the left applaud Mark Zuckerberg’s decision to indefinitely ban President Donald Trump from Facebook and Instagram, some are realizing that the Silicon Valley billionaire’s decision sets a dangerous precedent for the freedom of speech.

One such person is actress-model Emily Ratajkowski, who risked the scorn of her Hollywood peers and the mainstream media by expressing her concern about Zuckerberg’s decision to blacklist the president. “This gives Facebook/tech/Zuck THE MOST POWER. If he can shut the president up/off he can shut any of us up/off,” she tweeted on Thursday.

They do not have that right and there is no need.

These people are not only calling for the "patriotic" overthrow of the current government, based on conspiracy theories and the lie that there was widespread election/voter fraud, they're also doing it on the baseless belief that top ranking members of the Democratic Party are part of a massive ring of pedophile lizard people and Donald Trump is the only person who can save them.

Since Clinton was in power, I've been hearing Republicans call Democrats liars and crooks, even as Republicans get sent to jail for being liars and crooks, something that has simply not happened to top level Democrats, with any kind of freqency. Republicans have called Bill Clinton a predator and a rapist, while at the same time that Bill was getting consenual blowjobs from college graduate interns, Dennis Hastert, Republican Speaker of the House, was getting blowjobs from underage pages working in the House of Representatives, and paying bribes to avoid prosecution.

Now we have the party of Dennis Hastert and Jeffrey Epstein's best friend and wingman, Donald Trump, calling Democrats "pedophiles", since "crooks and liars" is simply not enough to keep people from getting elected these days.

The whole barrel of weasels that is Donald Trump's Republican Party needs to be doused with gasoline and burned to the ground, and quick lime spread on the ashes to keep this coven of liars and slimes from ever achieving power again.

Perhaps the Lincoln Project can start a new moderate conservative party that eschews the racism, white supremacy, authoritarianism, and fiscal incompetence of the Republican Party, and actually BE the party of balanced budgets and small government, with liberty and justice for all.

What other explanation can there by for the continual refusal of the leaders of the Capital Police to accept assistance on Wednesday, from other available forces, even as the Capital was under attack?

Or how about those videos of police officers leading the mob through the corridors to the leaders' offices? There is nothing dumber than a criminal who is so certain they won't get arrested for what they're doing that they post video of the crime in progress to their social media accounts.

A well-known QAnon influencer dubbed the 'Q Shaman' has been arrested after playing a highly visible role in the Capitol siege

This is the same guy that is being pictured in a conservative meme as having been at a BLM march last summer. They claimed that this was proof positive that BLM was behind the Capital attack. Turns out this guy's presence at the BLM Marches last summer is proof positive that right wing Qanon lead radicals were fomenting violence at the BLM protests, to discredit the BLM movement, and help fan the flames of racial division.

The left isn't the one who is being spoon fed bullshit and lies. I don't even live in the USA. I don't use American media, I use world media. The USA is now a second tier democracy, on very shaky ground. You can thank your "greatest President ever" for that status.

As many on the left applaud Mark Zuckerberg's decision to indefinitely ban President Donald Trump from Facebook and Instagram, some are realizing, like actress Emily Ratajkowski, that the Silicon Valley billionaire's decision sets a dangerous precedent for the freedom of speech.

Which conservatives have been purged and for what reasons?

 

[HenryBHough]

Everything is for sale.

Sooner or later somebody (or some country) with serious money is going to buy one of the left-wing "platforms" and start doing things their way.

The left will find their "freedom of speech" has gone missing.

But that's ok, they're always "victims". Even when they get what they engineered turned back on them.

And the naïve will deny that "they" will ever be shut up/off, because they will claim that they think like Zuckerberg. What they don't realize is that Zuckerberg is taking his cues from China's CCP.

Dumb idea
How many bakers in a county and how many Twitter on the internet?

The purge came early this year....they aren't even waiting for kamala harris to replace joe "the rapist" biden in office.....

democrat party big tech is purging conservatives from social media and the internet......one actress understands why this is going to end in blood and tears...

As many on the left applaud Mark Zuckerberg’s decision to indefinitely ban President Donald Trump from Facebook and Instagram, some are realizing that the Silicon Valley billionaire’s decision sets a dangerous precedent for the freedom of speech.

One such person is actress-model Emily Ratajkowski, who risked the scorn of her Hollywood peers and the mainstream media by expressing her concern about Zuckerberg’s decision to blacklist the president. “This gives Facebook/tech/Zuck THE MOST POWER. If he can shut the president up/off he can shut any of us up/off,” she tweeted on Thursday.

This fails as a strawman fallacy.

There is no Democratic ‘purge’ of conservative social media, the notion is a ridiculous lie.

You fail the I have a brain test.

"Peaceful George Floyd Protest Marred by Bursts of Violence

Will the Communist State Run media call the Capitol protests, "The PEACEFUL Capitol protest marred by occasional bursts of violence"????

What "communist state run media"? The mainstream media is all publically owned, and has a Board of Directors answerable to that public ownership, as well as journalistic standards of verification and fact checking. Ownership by shareholders, who hold management accountable via their Board of Directors is the very anthithesis of "communist state run media".

The right wing billionaire owned media is the direct opposite, and their fact check record shows it. The broadcast right wing lies. FOX News promoted Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi 24/7 on their network and all you got out of it was 7 investigations, none of which faulted the Obama Administration for what happened.

Why not do genuine oversight which benefits the American people and helps their government function better, instead of using over sight to promulagate Republican lies and rumours about Democrats? Republicans didn't spend 6 1/2 years investigation Bill Clinton because of any genuine concern about possible criminal behaviour by the Clintons, they did so because Clinton's economic record on unemployement, wages, budget management, and the stock market was demonstrably better and more successful than Reagan's, and that legacy had to be destroyed.

The Republican Party of Donald Trump proved this week that it will do ANYTHING, including launch an undemocratic coup against the legally elected government of, for and by the people, to maintain its white supremacist rule.

Trump sent his mob to kill Mike Pence and the rest of those "disloyal" to his rule. His hand picked men in the Pentagon, blocked interference from police forces from within and from outside the state from coming to the aid of the lawmakers who were under assault, as did leaders of the Capital police force.

Despite the presence of DC National Guard on high alert, and officers from the FBI, the DC Police, DHS, ATF, and other quasi-military branches of the federal government, the first government force to come to the aid of the Capital, were the Maryland National Guard.

This wasn't a peaceful demonstration that went amok, this was a carefully planned and orchestrated assault on American democracy, by the President of the United States, and violent elements of the fringe right, which the President has been stoking since before his election, starting with his refusal to disavow David Duke and the KKK, aided and abetted by the right wing billionaire media.

So what you're saying is, you're completely batshit crazy and delusional, or you're just a real big liar?

Got it.

Yeah, I got it. You've got nothing to rebut my post so you resorted to calling me a liar. Your concession is noted.

Well, I was going to go with you being a liar but I guess you really are delusional, after all.

LOL

What other explanation can there by for the continual refusal of the leaders of the Capital Police to accept assistance on Wednesday, from other available forces, even as the Capital was under attack?

Or how about those videos of police officers leading the mob through the corridors to the leaders' offices? There is nothing dumber than a criminal who is so certain they won't get arrested for what they're doing that they post video of the crime in progress to their social media accounts.

A well-known QAnon influencer dubbed the 'Q Shaman' has been arrested after playing a highly visible role in the Capitol siege

A leader in the QAnon conspiracy-theory movement kept popping up at Wednesday's Capitol siege in Washington, DC.

This is the same guy that is being pictured in a conservative meme as having been at a BLM march last summer. They claimed that this was proof positive that BLM was behind the Capital attack. Turns out this guy's presence at the BLM Marches last summer is proof positive that right wing Qanon lead radicals were fomenting violence at the BLM protests, to discredit the BLM movement, and help fan the flames of racial division.

The left isn't the one who is being spoon fed bullshit and lies. I don't even live in the USA. I don't use American media, I use world media. The USA is now a second tier democracy, on very shaky ground. You can thank your "greatest President ever" for that status.

No, it was people like you that brought us here.
That, and our own reluctance to deal with you as we should have, once we identified who and what you all were.

Since you obviously don't know who I or even where I am, despite it being right there under my avatar, I think the leftists are safe from people with your level of intellect.
