Trump Blasts Social Media ‘Censorship': ‘Discriminating Against Republican/Conservative Voices’
by Thom Geier
August 18, 2018
President Trump on Saturday issued a tweet-storm following the removal of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and his InfoWars shows from most major social media platforms earlier this month.
“Social Media is totally discriminating against Republican/Conservative voices,” the president wrote in the first of several tweets. “Speaking loudly and clearly for the Trump Administration, we won’t let that happen.”
The president did not indicate what steps his administration might take to prevent private companies from setting up and enforcing terms of service that have allowed them to discipline or shut down accounts for reported abuses.
“Too many voices are being destroyed, some good & some bad, and that cannot be allowed to happen,” he wrote, without naming any specific accounts.

This is where the media calls Alex Jones a conservative voice and acts like he’s the only channel being shut down.

This is dumb. Social media sites of all persuasions can and do discriminate as they please. For example, it's well-known that on reddit there's a pro-Trump subreddit that bans anyone who criticizes the current POTUS.

And there is a well known sub named r/politics that bans anyone who is pro Trump.
At least Reddit still allows one sub that is pro Trump.

R/politics is also a default subscribed subreddit.
