Just start shooting the protesters. Kill a half dozen or so in each participating city and the whole
group will lose interest.

Quickly.

Shutting down private companies because Trumpkins get triggered by some morons is pretty authoritarian

A reminder to conservatives: There's plenty of frickery going on with social media, but restriction of freedom is not the answer.

I don’t believe anything positive comes from social media. Not one damn thing.

Conservative and i agree.

But shutting off cell towers during protests and especially riots is a great way to neutralize matters. To say otherwise is dumb.

Ok, I’ll be “dumb” - this is a terrible idea.

It’s a great way to cause even more panic and chaos.

Most of the suggestions on the OT are exactly what the OT shite on china/HK for doing just 8 months ago.

A two or three day interruption of social media service (especially video streaming) for two or three days would go a long way toward sending these looters and rioters back home.

Nothing says “America” like shutting down businesses and cutting communication in order to control the masses.

While I don’t really think social media has made the world a better place, that’s some Chi-Com shite.

I don't know why undercover folks don't just follow some of these rioters home.
