Like we needed more proof Chris was mentally handicapped in addition to the chair.

Maybe trump will lower the flag, over the White House, to half staff for the fallen Capitol officer. I doubt the selfish bastard will. The Capitol has been at half staff since he passed. He's too worried about himself.

Just make your own conservative app they said. It's just that easy they said.

And like I said months ago, having your own platform means exactly jack and shite when Amazon/Apple/Microsoft/Google (who own 99% of the cloud storage and app store marketplace) decide you are an undesirable.

Careful, they operate within their own reality, one they've fabricated from feelings and emotions.

What about the a-hole terrorists that burned down and looted multiple cities over the past year? I'm sure you have an opinion on them. I look forward to hearing it.


Same goes for them ...but it’s a difference between a retail store and the damn Capitol

If you don't like being censored create your own platform. OK done. Well, we don't like dissenting opinions either. Banned!

Yep. If you don't like twitter, create your own twitter

Hey, we don't like the new twitter you created, so we're gonna shut you down.

These people shouldn't be given an inch. No compromise, no negotiations. They never bargain in good faith and there's no reason to believe they ever will. Whatever they demand, they really want 50 steps further

Can someone explain to me something, honest question. Trump and other Republicans have advocated to remove the social media’s liability shield. This sort of action, banning Trump, is exactly the sort of thing the social media companies would be forced to do if this liability shield is removed.

Isn’t this inconsistent? Honest question as I’m just trying to understand here

frick Twitter. I’ll never ever join. Total scum bags. Trump gets the blame for everything and I’m so tired of it. The people of this country need to start thinking for themselves and being held responsible for their own actions. People are trying to control everything instead of holding people accountable. My company doesn’t block any websites. Our policy is if you’re stupid enough to go to pornhub on your work computer then you’re going to have to handle being fired. We’re not going to over police you if you can’t control yourself. If a tweet is able to incite violence maybe they are the ones that need banning.

I’ll add one more comment: if they do this to him, there will be nothing to stop them from doing it to the other side when they disagree with them. Then we will have gone full circle again like the defund the police, walls don’t work - we need the police, let’s put a wall around the Capital Building.

I can’t believe how confident and narcissistic these despots are to think that we’re beyond mafia and gang tactics. We’re at the snapping point, and I just think 2021 is going to be so much worse than 2020. I’m expecting the worst year in America since 1864.

I actually 100% agree with this. Social media is responsible for what happened over the summer, its responsible for what happened yesterday.

In the beginning I think the good of social media outweighed the bad, but now... I think its the other way around.

And when I say social media, I don't mean message boards or sites that might have their own chat rooms so people can discuss that particular subject, I am talking about Twitter, Facebook.... Any platform that allows a person to reach a large amount of people to spread whatever bullshite they want should not exist.

If they want to spread their bullshite, they would just have to do it the old fashion way.

Not sure about 1864 but I figure some of the more violent parts of Reconstruction may get a run for their money.

Just so we are clear. If twitter was around in the 1940s, the world is in the middle of WWII.. And twitter banned Hitler.. You would have a problem with that?


Assuming that Twitter is an American company at that time, yeah! I’m for banning anyone in the CCP who is on Twitter btw.

There's going to be an EO ban on assault rifles coming down shortly with this as an excuse. Book it.
