    It was a common retort from leftists when defending Twitter's politicized censorship prior to Musk buying it and restoring some semblance of balance. The fact that they are not NOW arguing it is evidence of their hypocrisy.

    But what would we have to laugh at? Lmao, the unhinged are still there swinging at their proverbial windmills.

    The look on Schiff's face when he learned Trump was reinstated to Twitter and the new House is going to defund their special counsel investigation of Trump.

    I couldn't agree more! Like the old saying "Give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves" :thumbsup:

    Instead of debating someone on the merits of an issue, here’s you going straight to ad hominem.
    Nazi meaning figuratively, not literally but you knew that. You were being condescending and hoping to toss that one out hoping it would stick.

    Try and debate better.

    You can't get much more ad hom than slinging around fake Nazi comparisons. But you knew that. You were, by your own admission, being condescending and hoping to toss that one out hoping it would stick with a (again, by your own admission) dishonest comparison. Try and think better.

    Thanks again for making my point, Instead of debating someone on the merits of an issue, here’s you going straight to ad hominem.

    Oh goodie, the "common retort" that all the righties keep talking about, focusing on, commenting on, etc. The only persons who are saying that "the left is in a meltdown" are the conservatives themselves and no one else.

    Not even close...:bored:
    In fact, that characterization is a total misinterpretation of the situation surrounding Twitter...

    You do realize there is a block option on Twitter, right?

    By pointing out the fact that, instead of debating merits of an issue, you went straight ahead with fake ad hom Nazi comparisons? Lol, gotta love your self-confessed hypocrisy.

    Then your previous comment makes no sense. Thank you for clarifying.

    My comment makes plenty of sense to those who are sane and literate.

    Your inability to articulate your point leans in the other direction, but you do you. Until you are willing to stand for what you say, and so far you haven't, then there is no reason to engage. Let me know when you are prepared to discuss. So far you've refused.

    All you are doing is exposing your own hypocrisy in EXACTLY the same way you are criticizing. Private companies have rights, no matter how much you hate those rights.

    Religious affiliation doesn't negate that FACT!
    Also, as to THIS:
    Speaking of being brain dead
    ^Are you implying that I (personally) am "brain dead"?
    Not a good look...:smdh:
    Oh? Ok...

    So does this mean that Twitter are planning to change their Terms of Service or does it mean you can now breach the TOS if you can win a poll on whether you should be allowed to return after a ban for doing so?
    Does this mean that Trump can completely ignore the TOS now or will Twitter users be asked to vote on whether he should be banned every time he breaches the rules in future?

    Also will the new policy be the same for everyone or is it just Trump that it applies to?

    You mean the tweets Trump deleted or Twitter deleted?

    Again, stop with the "You guys" hyperbole. I never wrote that the old Twitter didn't have the unfettered right to ban Trump. Why do you mangle words and go off in different directions when responding to a post? It's such a losing strategy.

    Well then, my post about leftists doesn't apply to you.

    Carry on with the :heartbreaker: :rant:
