OK then. Sometimes the nuance of our posts is not easy to discern, because of the flat format of this sort of a board.

Watch the video above. Obviously it is people like those in the video and their radical militant Democrat left supporters that we need to be concerned about.

Looks like the Republican party, the NRSC and President Trump are gearing up to take on Twitter and the other Democrat left biased social media mega-platforms:

GOP goes to war with Twitter over McConnell campaign account freeze

The National Republican Senatorial Committee on Thursday said it won't spend money on Twitter until the situation is "adequately addressed." A top official with the Republican National Committee also said the RNC and the Trump campaign would not spend money with Twitter "until they address this disgusting bias."

Meanwhile, the White House for weeks has been hinting at possible action in relation to how social media outlets treat conservatives. A White House official told Fox News the administration is "exploring all policy solutions." The administration has circulated drafts of a possible executive order from Trump, following a summit last month where he met with conservative social media influencers, according to Politico.

“If the internet is going to be presented as this egalitarian platform and most of Twitter is liberal cesspools of venom, then at least the president wants some fairness in the system,” a White House official told the outlet. It is unclear what the order will entail or how it would aim to curb social media bias but it reportedly deals with other issues as well.
It is about time.

Yeah, I see Twitter posts posted here and a few other places. But I have never had a Twitter account or a Facebook account, and I am highly confident that I never will. Even if I had one of these accounts, I use an ad-blocker, so I would not see those ads anyway.

I do not expect that the NRSC's cancellation of their ad contract is going to be a defining event for Twitter, but Twitter is really making themselves not only a target for the wrath of the current federal government - President Donald J. Trump presiding - but they are making themselves a campaign issue that could certainly help Trump and Republican candidates to win races in the 2020 election.

i don't have an account but i read twitter posts all the time and never see any ads.

here, for example - not an ad in sight.

i agree that they are getting themselves in some hot water over their ban/lock policies. watch the video in this link if you haven't seen it already, tim pool does a great job.

Tim Pool and Joe Rogan make Twitter execs squirm

I am starting to believe that the average democrat voter doesn’t really understand what’s happening in their party, or how could they keep voting for a party encouraging harassment, violence, hatemongering, and anarchy against police, republicans, Christians, corporations, people with opposing views, and people who are patriotic toward our country. The democrat party has given hundreds of millions to lawyers supporting and helping illegals with legal aid , but ignore the needs of their own constituents.

Extremists such as McConnell should not be given a platform to promote their hate and divide the nation.
