I need a program to keep up here. I thought Trump was trying to destroy Fox News.

No, they believe that stuff when it benefits their narrative. When the shoe is on the other foot so to speak, it's suddenly outrageous when a private company exercises their rights to run their business as they see fit. Right-wing fascists are the biggest snowflakes out there.

Wait... I thought Fox was destroying CNN in ratings..?

Little drama queen playing victim now?


I find that many conservatives are fake when they say they are pro business free market competition. Only when it suits their narrative.

And the Democrats accuse US of trying to destroy democracy! It is they who are acting like communists, silencing the voice of all opposing opinion.

Ok let's take this....

private business rights up until a social media service, a private company, decides that certain content violates their TOS.

Yet.. they can't get their rear ends off the ground to make their own conservative social media services... they want to tell a private business how to run. Yell at them that they are the devil and tech industry is evil but then come back to them we need your service to get the message out? get the f out of here...

If I had a customer that accused me of being evil, I'd throw them out if they showed up asking something from me. I don't owe you anything.

You’re supposed to use the marketplace of ideas to defeat your opponent in a free and peaceful nation.

Ya’ know appeal to the most people.

In Trump's world, you are either under the bus or on it...

Conservatives only believe in competition when they're winning, when losing they start creating excuses like "massive voter fraud" that are unsupported by anything factual.
