So people are supposed to stay on FaceBook and Twitter, to have their opinions and even hard news censored??? Facebook and Twitter are turning into left-wing thought police sites, where only their warped version of reality is allowed to be voiced.


CNN: Parler Is A ‘Threat To Democracy’ And Is ‘Bad For The Country’

“I think big picture Pamela, here’s the concerning trend line here: people are going more and more into their own echo chambers, more and more into their own bubbles, especially Trump voters,” said Stelter, who is often referred to as CNN’s “house eunuch” by conservative pundit tucker Carlson.

“Mmm, that’s what I was gonna say,” Brown said, nodding in agreement.

“There’s this new social media app called Parler getting a lot of attention because conservatives are leaving, saying they’re leaving Twitter and Facebook, going off to Parler because they believe Parler is a safer space for them,”
Stelter continued. “What we’re seeing is even more of a bunker mentality in right-wing media, and ultimately that’s not good for the country.”

Brown then offered up her words of wisdom on the issue: “No, it’s not good, it’s a threat to democracy, um, that these people are in echo chambers and getting fed a diets of lies, essentially.”

The Left is imperialist in nature. Those who disagree cannot be allowed to separate. They must be kept under the Left's dominion and used as tax slaves.

So when the "Free Press" has a one sided agenda......

That's ok.

But when people seek a social media platform that doesn't engage in censorship of "wrong think".....

That's bad.


And Democrats claim that they're NOT authoritarians...

Wow. Just wow. The Orwellian/Saul Alinsky ploy of turning the truth.

How can people be so oblivious to themselves?

haha. You make too much sense.

I wish all conservatives would leave Facebook and Twitter. I honestly can't watch ABC, CBS or NBC news anymore because of their censorship and lies and leftist views. Only way to hurt them is to stop watching their fake news or using social media sites.

Well no; you’re completely wrong here, hence the highlighted CNN piece which illustrates something entirely different altogether.

But bless your little heart. You’re trying.
