If politicians want to use Twitter and FB to make themselves look like gullible, ignorant fools, then Twitter and FB should let them continue doing it. It a good way to know who you are voting for or NOT! I greatly miss Trump not being on Twitter.

I cannot disagree with this, and I assume your coming from the left side of the aisle. Respect

What happened to open debate and refuting misinformation with facts ?

Are those days gone ? We just ban people now ?

We are on the path to what China does today....one voice and only one voice.
I don't support censorship. I support a private company's right to choose who to do business with.

They can do what they want but anyone looking to Twitter for the truth has issues. Lol They think they are the almighty truth tellers...ridiculous.

Anyone that gets banned should be happy to be off a woke website.

Why do conservatives resist truth? Why are they so ready to accept the most outlandish accusations and conspiracy theories while being deaf to reason and logic? What makes them think they are so much smarter than experts in every field of science?

Yeah who wants truth -- just feed me what I want to hear.

All kidding aside. She got a bunch of warnings. They don't just wake up and suspend. She knew what she was doing.

I would bet big bucks she was hoping for this to happen.

Tucker Carlson is drooling -- he has something to do a show with next week. He is still on the air right?

Twitter has suspended Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's personal account for spreading COVID-19 misinformation.

"We permanently suspended Marjorie Taylor Greene for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation policy," Twitter said in a statement, as first reported by CNN's Donie O'Sullivan. "We've been clear that, per our strike system for this policy, we will permanently suspend accounts for repeated violations of the policy."



"Twitter is a private company, blah, blah
... they can do what they want...blah, blah, blah ..."

There, now that that's out of the way,.......

Who gets to decide what constitutes "misinformation"?

So if I say the sky is falling -- you know that's misinformation.

It really isn't that difficult.
