Walkaway Banned from Facebook As Apple Threatens Parler

.....and concluded that because they used the word 'freely' in their explanation of why they have restrictions, that Twitter wasn't allowed to have restrictions?

That's not a great argument.

It is called "cogent interpretation of the English language" Skylar.

And knowing that the rules contradict the usage of that word.

'Freely' means without restriction, hence there would be no restrictions in the first place. The whole thing is a contradiction of itself. It is or is not a platform allowing the free exchange of ideas, it can't be both. And from what I saw, it is insisting to be both, when it is simply the latter.

 

[TemplarKormac]

As I've said many times before.......you're really bad at this.

Your repeated insistences does not translate into reality, Skylar. Your arrogance is almost debilitating.

Trump's ban from Twitter would indicate that my assessment of the situation aligns far closer to reality than yours does.

There you go insisting again.

If all non-violent forms of expression are outlawed, the right will resort to violent forms of expression.

Burning crosses again?

That was Democraps. That was the left wrong.

For the entire time that it has any meaningful existence, in either of its incarnations, the Ku Klux Klan was solidly aligned with the Democraps. Antifa and Black Lies Matter are the contemporary counterparts to the KKK.

Its called ignoring virtually everything you read........and plucking one word out of this:

Just the one word.....and then insisting that Twitter isn't allowed to have any restrictions on speech on its own platform.

As Trump's banning demonstrates elegantly......you're obviously wrong.

Twitter losing 10k account per hour per timcast.

Oh, you mean the ban after he called for the violence to stop, which was promptly deleted by Twitter? Want me to pull the clip? He wasn't calling for violence, he was asking them to remain peaceful.

Yeah, no.

Sure, think what you like. You are ignoring Twitter's arbitrary and contradictory behavior. I cannot cure your ignorance, only you can.

Yeah, no.

The ban that Twitter enacted when they determined that Trump had violated their TOS.

A ban they had every authority to do. As they define the TOS on their own website.

This isn't terribly complicated.

Wow, that's pretty awful that smartphones won't allow you to access alternative platforms from their phones.

I guess someone is going to have to create a new piece of hardware and a whole new smartphone software now?

. . . while they are at it, might as well make it so the NSA and Chinese can't access it.

Trump being banned is most definitely a fact. You saw him whine and snivel about it via the POTUS Twitter account before that TOS violation got the POTUS account locked too.

Don't worry though....it will open back up in a couple of weeks.

No one has done great under socialism - happy starving!

Not entirely true. Those in high government positions, those who are “more equal than others”, usually do quite well. Though perhaps not as well as they think, per Boris Yeltsin's observations after he paid a visit to an American supermarket.

Yeltsin asked customers about what they were buying and how much it cost, later asking the store manager if one needed a special education to manage a store. In the Chronicle photos, you can see him marveling at the produce section, the fresh fish market, and the checkout counter. He looked especially excited about frozen pudding pops.

"Even the Politburo doesn't have this choice. Not even Mr. Gorbachev," he said. When he was told through his interpreter that there were thousands of items in the store for sale he didn't believe it. He had even thought that the store was staged, a show for him. Little did he know there countless stores just like it all over the country, some with even more things than the Randall's he visited.​

Twitter still allows ANTIFA to post.



Seems an odd double standard

easy to ignore this, isnt it lefties? Why is that?

 

[iceberg]

cnn now trying to shut down fox because it's foxes fault the capital was sieged.

..lk

they're banning anything they can't control.

as for insurection and crap on parler - do you really think they'd plan something like that on an open network? get the info, details, users and the like and let the law go after them. getting them out of the store isn't about security, it's about control.

Ya...they did..

'Burn down DC': Violence that erupted at Capitol was incited by pro-Trump mob on social media

Pro-Trump mob that stormed the Capitol as Congress prepared to formally declare Joe Biden president-elect fomented the violence on social media.

www.usatoday.com

Capitol Rioters Planned for Weeks in Plain Sight. The Police Weren’t Ready.

Insurrectionists made no effort to hide their intentions, but law enforcement protecting Congress was caught flat-footed.

www.propublica.org

https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/01/05/parler-telegram-violence-dc-protests/

Which begs the question...why were the Capital Police so underprepared?

If you feel there should be no censorship on private platforms, shouldn’t ISIS be allowed to operate there?

Which begs the question, why did the capital police move the barrier to let them in then open the doors for them

You miis those questions.

Yes. That is in my list of questions.

Here is another. Should ISIs be allowed free speech rights on these platforms?

yes.

True liberals (not you) are not afraid of speech.

See, that's the problem. You lefties can't win the argument because your ideas suck donkey ass, so you shut it down.

All this banning and censoring shit is a declaration of defeat.

You know it. We know it.

The Stalinist far left march continues. As president Trump stated, they weren't after him - they are after you and your freedoms. He is standing in the way.

FACEBOOK has removed the #WalkAway Campaign and has BANNED ME and EVERY MEMBER of my team!!! Over half a million people in #WalkAway with hundreds of thousands of testimonial videos and stories is GONE. Facebook has banned everything related to #WalkAway.

Conservative #WalkAway Facebook page removed along with hundreds of thousands of videos and followers - Washington Examiner

Conservative activist Brandon Straka announced that Facebook has removed his page with over half a million followers and also banned members of his team.“FACEBOOK has removed the #WalkAway Campaign and has BANNED ME and EVERY MEMBER of my team!!!” Straka, founder of the #WalkAway movement...

Twitter has also banned president Trump. Meanwhile, apple is trying to shut down the free speech alternative Parler unless they implement draconian anti-speech measures.

Apple Has Threatened To Ban Parler From The App Store

The social networking app favored by conservatives has been given 24 hours to institute a moderation policy.

The founders would have stormed the capitol a long time ago. Trees of liberty need watering.

They banned a shitload of people and groups ...

Ah yes we also "need to be cleansed "

Oh its not to far off now

Everyone who supports this is a Communist

So communism now include private corporations? The kind that would not exist in communism...Wow, you a Donald Trump kinda genius..

Communists support censorship.

Laughing.......by your conception of 'censorship', I can waltz into your house, spray paint BLACK LIVES MATTER on your livingroom wall. And you can neither stop me nor ever take it down, less you engage in 'censorship'.

Once again, you have no idea what you're talking about.

I find it very funny that these same people want to remove protections for companies like Facebook for what their customers post on their site.

If that happens, Facebook and all social media will be even more strict since they will be held liable for what is posted on their site.

So they want to force Facebook and all social media to not be able to police their sites but at the same time, hold them responsible for what is posted on their site.

These people are totally bat crap crazy and illogical.

ROFL! Who cares if they become "more strict" after they have been sued into bankruptcy? If they are going to behave like a publisher, then they deserve to be treated like one. A company that is so obviously partisan shouldn't be recieving government protection. I know you Stalinists believe Facebook and Twitter should be able to slander and defame people at will, but not all of use are such obvious boot lickers.

Modern LIbErals are very far removed from what liberalism had been understood to mean a few generations ago.
