The liberals in charge of social media think genocide is preferable to Trump. Many in the Democrat base agree.

Perhaps she'd start looking up videos on BitChute.

The story here to me is not what he just tweeted and got fired for.

It's that he's been doing this for quite some time yet remained working for CNN.

WTH?

Adeel Raja, Clinton News Network, and Twitter are damn disgraces. I am floored by this amount of evil that CNN allowed from someone it employed. And shame on Twitter for allowing this mess.

Twitter has a "hate speech" policy, but clearly the people at Twitter don't consider invoking Hitler to be "hate speech".

Maybe it would become "hate speech", if it came from someone on the right?

This is the reason I deleted my Twitter account a while back. I don't miss it.

Just another example of CNN fanning the flames of division.

It's not just the mention of Hitler. Tweets where the Holocaust is being denied are not deleted either. It a disgrace.

I totally agree.

If their policy was to just leave everything up, and not delete anything, I don't think I would have a problem with it.

But the fact that they censor all kinds of things every day, but they have no problem with this kind of crap, is pure evil.

Playbook: Repressive Tolerance - Herbert Marcuse

Quote:
I said that, by virtue of its inner logic, withdrawal of tolerance from regressive movements, and discriminatory tolerance in favor of progressive tendencies would be tantamount to the 'official' promotion of subversion. The historical calculus of progress (which is actually the calculus of the prospective reduction of cruelty, misery, suppression) seems to involve the calculated choice between two forms of political violence: that on the part of the legally constituted powers (by their legitimate action, or by their tacit consent, or by their inability to prevent violence), and that on the part of potentially subversive movements. Moreover, with respect to the latter, a policy of unequal treatment would protect radicalism on the Left against that on the Right.

This is just one of those rare occasions where they couldn’t justify the asymmetrical tolerance of all things “progressive.” That is all.

As I’ve said, the liberal media (and many Democrats in general) have a lot of tolerance for the most disgusting antisemitic hate speech from other liberals. The irony is that they claim to have the higher moral ground when it comes to bigotry, and exaggerate racism.

1) Saying we need another Hitler to wipe out the Jews: Not nice for Jews, but let’s move on.
2) Having Aunt Jemima pancake syrup: that’s offensive to blacks and will be eliminated.
