Permanent suspension of @realDonaldTrump

You said "why shouldn't they?" That is code for "planning to kill my dog"

When you make up rules willy nilly, your customers just leave because they don't want the hassle of trying to figure out your rules.
I had a post deleted because I quoted Michael Brown's stepfather on this very forum and as told that I was making threats. Does that make me want to find another forum? Yes it does.

 

What control and takeover did these people expect to accomplish without heavy weaponry and body armor? Most were armed with flags and cameras mostly taking selfies the whole time.

Have you wept for the cops that have been killed over the riots in 2020? Some executed in their cop cars. Others executed while trying to defend a store. Many were almost burned alive by a BLM mob. Did you care??? Oh that’s right. THOSE people weren’t really BLM or ANTIFA members. ONLY the peaceful ones were BLM. All the violence that ensued were undercover Trump supporters....hey the MSM said so and it must be true. In another few weeks it’s not like we’ll be able to know what’s real anymore once govt news takes over.

 

Sure. It's easier to leave than jump through hoops. However, at the end of the day, they get to make the rules and they get to deal with the mass exodus.

 

You make no sense so often that it's hard to respond to your posts.

 

Legally? They aren't different. Practically, Parler fails to take action against content that violates their own TOS, or their host's TOS, while Twitter does actually take action.

See, from a section 230 point of view, they aren't different. That's why the meme was idiotic. Anyone who thinks it's a basis for argument outs themselves as too ignorant of the circumstances of the situation and the law to be taken seriously, though. So it is kind of useful in that regard.

Edit: Just to be clear, section 230 has absolutely nothing to do with why Google, Apple, etc dropped Parler. That is akin to the faulty First Amendment argument.

 

Trump said nothing different in calling for a peaceful protest for supporters questioning election integrity than Democrat leaders said in calling for peaceful protests with BLM. In both cases, riots and destruction resulted. Trump is no more guilty than Democrat leaders for the independent criminal actions of some citizens.

Left State Media is busy spinning propaganda very differently about the Stop-the-Steal rally compared to BLM/Antifa violence. They are swaying public opinion to accept the illiberal stomping of 1st Amendment rights by swirling up a dervish of emotional reaction among the left.

In doing so, history is very likely to repeat itself and it won't be any prettier an ending than it was the first time. Left State Media and Democrat leaders are turning the Capitol Riots of last week into an American version analogous to the Reichtag Fire.

And the outcome of the propaganda of the Reichtag Fire?

The day after the fire, at Hitler's request, President Hindenburg signed the Reichstag Fire Decree into law by using Article 48 of the Weimar Constitution. The Reichstag Fire Decree suspended most civil liberties in Germany, including habeas corpus, freedom of expression, freedom of the press, the right of free association and public assembly, and the secrecy of the post and telephone.[13] These rights were not reinstated during Nazi reign. The decree was used by the Nazis to ban publications not considered "friendly" to the Nazi cause.

Welcome to the beginning of Weimar in America, brought to you courtesy of Left State Media and the DNC. Between silencing political opposition and locking down people for fear of a virus which isn't terribly deadly, we can see where No-unity Biden will carry us in the near future. He did promise us a Dark Winter after all. At least he told one truth in 2020.

 

and evidently, Twitter's TOS is fluid and can change at any time.

Uh oh. I just found this quote from Biden:
“Look — this is America. Be a patriot. Protect your fellow citizens. Step up,”
I think he's calling for violence against anyone not wearing a mask.

 

Event conference just started with Mike Pompeo with emcee issuing a condemnation of the squelching of civil liberties.

 

Yeah, basically. Every TOS has a boilerplate line about how they reserve the right to change them at any time.

If you just crawled out a cave and have no base context against which to judge that comment, then sure. But context gets to be brought up in court, so Biden is in the clear.

 

+ 1000%

 

JFC, and conservatives like to call libs "snowflakes." This ignorant, victim mentality is pathetic.

 

I agree and he will. And he will have a suite of apps up and running faster than you can imagine. He'll be on a hiring spree. Engineers interested in building solutions rather than having to attend "woke awareness" sessions will leave these companies.

 

The were there to take arrest any legislator that did not vote to overturn the election and put them on "trial"

Pred, all due respect, but it is ridiculous to think that dems, or myself, support the murder of Police. The cold blooded murder of those officers was not acceptable at ANY level, nor was it sanctioned by the mainstream democratic establishment. Show me democratic leaders posting on social media, or on video at speaking engagements their desire to see, or their "call to action" to do any of the things you just claimed ?

Now contrast that to what just happened in Washington. That WAS sanctioned by MANY republicans, including the POTUS. They all encouraged these people to come "march" on washington. "STOP THE STEAL" they said.......Now what do you think would happen when you tell your supporters that there are people trying to steal from them their votes, and that their is a "call to action" by the POTUS ?

 

If you didn't notice, I referenced the context in my comment. But clearly, by Twitter's rule about the term Patriot, he is calling for violence.

 

You mean you disingenously speculated about the meaning, absent of context. It's cute. Like something a five year old does, since they haven't learned how to make a proper argument yet.

 

Odd reference. This is what revs you up? The case of the wedding cake? You're derailing your own thread with this?

 

The Left can't quit lying. The Left just infers what other people mean to the worst possible scenario. There is nothing in Trump's tweets that incite violence. In fact, during the rally he called for "peaceful protests", prior to anything happening.



Then, when the rioters started he called for them to be peaceful and to go home.

 

Really? You can't quote anything Trump said that shows he supported what happened. Yet you can't see that the words by many Dems were taken to be calls to action? What do you think Pressley is calling for here:
"This is as much about public outcry and organizing and mobilizing and applying pressure so that this GOP-led Senate and these governors that continue to carry water for this administration, putting the American people in harm’s way, turning a deaf ear to the needs of our families and our communities — hold them accountable. Make the phone calls, send the emails, show up. You know, there needs to be unrest in the streets for as long as there’s unrest in our lives."

This seems very similar to what Trump was saying. How can you defend one while condemning the other?

 

You're not the only one to make the reasonable observation that a group of radical insurgents who were intent on overthrowing the government would have been heavily armed with more than flagpoles.

Some of the mockery of this current Left State Media's quackery propaganda and gaslighting of the American people is, at least somewhat amusing.


Hold my beer fuzzy hat. I'm in the middle of carrying out a violent government coup, armed with my flagpole and megaphone.

...

 

Twitter loses that argument when ANTIFA was using Twitter promiently for organizing their "protests". Either silence all violence or none at all lol.

 

Saying something, and saying it on Twitter are two different things.

 

LAME. I would have had more respect for them if they admitted that they're "progressive" fascists...



Sieg Heil to Der Führer Jack Dorsey and all his fellow Nazis!

 

Wrong. Twitter had to silence only one account in Trumps case. A single account that had previously had multiple warnings and issues noted by the company - and presumably by the user. In this case the user chose to ignore the warnings.

To shut down ANTIFA's use of twitter when organizing protests or for that matter their right wing equivalent the Proud Boys they'd have to be monitoring hundreds of accounts in real time and then link specific instructions issued by specific users to specific acts of violence/disorder etc. Their not set up for that.

Law enforcement agencies etc are set up for that. They can collect & analyze multiple twitter feeds etc and put a time line together while collecting evidence as part of a criminal instigation - but their the ones doing the heavy lifting Twitter just hands them the data.

 

We

when He saw the got in the capitol he tweeted an attack on pence

 

Perfect. Perhaps everyone on Facebook and Twitter should change their avatars.
