Trump looks like an orange raccoon with the lack of orange makeup around his eyes.

This is bad. It's the equivalent of forcing a cake company to make a gay cake.

What a soft arse bitch.

It's great to see this board of fake conservatives praising this kind of shite though.

No, it's not anywhere near the same thing.

Nah. This is about publisher vs platform. Social media companies enjoy plenty of legal protections related to content posted by users of their sites because they're considered platforms. But once they start censoring and removing posts based on political ideology they don't agree with, they should no longer be considered a platform but instead as a publisher, which means now they can get sued for content posted by users.

Twitter has shown political bias in their censorship, so they should lose their platform status.

Fact checking a president who happens to lie a lot isn't literal conservative martyrdom.

As long as this doesn't censor any free speech, then I don't see how this is a bad thing.

And what they were “fact checking” in this particular case was something that Trump was not only right on but Dems like Nadler hade said in the past would increase fraud.

They couldn’t resist trying to help the Dems and now they fricked it all up for everybody.

The issue is this: twitter let chinese officials post lie after lie after lie for months regarding CV19 originating in America. Twitter didn't do anything.

They fact checked the president over something what wasn't even technically wrong. The article they linked even flat out stated mail in ballots increase chance of fraud.

On a platform, other users would be the ones doing fact checking. If the platform is fact checking, they're a publisher. Especially considering I don't remember any fact checking from Twitter on the Russian collusion claims or unfounded allegations against Kavanaugh

But, if you are a PLATFORM and not a publisher, you simply allow the other users to address that.

I Have no issue with anyone calling another out. But, don’t accept government protection from liability and then do what you say you do not in order to GET that protection.

That is what this is about.

If Twitter would allow free speech without censoring politics they don't agree with, we wouldn't be having this issue. Censorship of political speech is awfully communist of them.
