Go ask your "legit" questions of someone else. I'm unsubscribing to this thread. It's pointless.

So the government of China didn't lied for over a year about a Pandemic that caused millions of deaths worldwide and lying about their human rights violations against minority groups? when did they get suspended and corrected by Google or Facebook? How many lies and violence they have to commit just on them? The list is long. These companies make billions of dollars in China. That explains.

Aren't they the authority on the truth? how about Maxine Waters who is a congressman in the government? how about BLM that are a powerful political group? funny, when was the last Democrat politician in power or a political group from the left that they censored, suspended or ban to set the "truth" straight?

The problem with these social media totalitarians who are run by Libs is that they think all people believe in their b.s.You think Trump was the only one in Tweeter posting things that half of the nation didn't like?

If you are all of the sudden going to "clean up" free speech then apply it for all but who are these people kidding, they make it so obvious and then pretend they float above water.
Mikayla did say she would support action against Obama if he had done such things. I would agree with her.

Follow the channels. File the lawsuit. Gather the evidence and make your case.

But don't whine about how unfair the world is if you are not willing to do the work.

"government action" is not the government. We all take part in government in some way. We fly, which is overseen by the FAA. We spend money which is under the jurisdiction of the Treasury. We drive, and the roads are a responsibility overseen by a number of agencies, including municipal, county, state and federal, plus the NHTSA, commerce, etc.

Just saying the government peripherally touches some sort of activity is not enough to trigger first amendment requirements of everybody who also touches that activity.

Whining and exposing hypocrisy are 2 different things. I know the world is unfair. I'm not a lefty. When these companies have extremist groups and politicians and dictators and protect their accounts it's really hard to take them serious that they want only the truth and no violence.


I said over and over let the courts decide.

Ok. I am completely ok with that. Will you accept the decision of the courts?

He will drop this bogus lawsuit the moment he realizes he has opened himself up to be personally deposed by the opposing counsel. Whoopsie! There will be some .....interesting questions about the things he DID post and their intent and who they were aimed at, etc..

This is what happens when Rudy and the My Pillow guy are your advisors.

There is no mechanism for investigation.

So, once again, Trump was doomed to lose 90-10, and 335-100 (by the numbers you provided).

Your claim that "something" would have been uncovered is simply a tragic illustration of your ignorance surrounding the process.
Then the House and Senate recessed to discuss the objection/evidence in their chambers. Watch the livestream of the hearing.

You don't have a right to go to a private place and protest or insult the management and have a right to keep your job.
You are making a good argument here for why Twitter (a private company) can ban trump.
