    Default Mexico, Poland fight censorship tech firms.

    Well, maybe Poland & even Mexico are more American than quite a few Americans.

    Leaders in Mexico and Poland look to curb power of social media giants after Trump bans

    In the aftermath of President Trump’s banishment from social media platforms, including Facebook and Twitter, a handful of world leaders have expressed alarm over the power of private companies to decide if and when to ban elected leaders from key parts of the public arena.

    At least two ruling governments — on the left wing in Mexico and the right in Poland — have since suggested pursuing policies to prevent what happened to Trump.

    My opinion of Mexico & Mexicans continues to climb.
    From a extreme low some 10- 15 years ago.

    Don't make the mistake of believing the enemy of your enemy is your friend.
    Don't be afraid to see what you see

    Most Latinos really aren't that bad here with the exception of Blacker ones like Puerto Ricans & Dominicans.

    Besides, most Western European Americans seem to support their self extinction.

    Maybe that's a good thing.

    Western European Americans are large behind the riots be it Antifa, BLM, Proud boys, Boogaloo boys etc.

    Western European Americans are behind so many wars.

    Western European Americans are complete Jew lovers & that's the real enemy the Jews.

    Mexican food is really good.
    Mexicans in the USA work really hard.

    Mexicans in the USA also haven't shown up much for volatile riots like seen by ANTIFA, Proud Boys, BLM, Boogaloo Boys etc.

    It's not censorship. You agree to the terms of what you can and can't post when you join. If you break those rules you break the contract of the terms of service and are barred. Sometimes it's a slap on the wrist and others are a complete violation resulting in dismissal. By the fringe right-wing standards barring someone for posting illicit material is censorship. Bullshit, plain and simple.

    I highly doubt the Found Fathers intended this.

    Their America was strict on Corporations & strong on the 1st Amendment.

    The first amendment does not apply to private individuals, or even the States. It only applies to the federal government.

    Quote Originally Posted by 1st amendment of the Constitution of the United States

    See? It applies to Congress. It prevents Congress from passing any law establishing a religion or banning a religion, or abridging free speech in any way, including the press. It also prevents Congress from passing any law barring the people to peacefully assemble (not riot, break windows, loot, pillage, burn, or otherwise damage or vandalize), and to prevent Congress from barring petitions or suing the government.

    It does not apply to States. States can have (and have had) state religions, banned religions, have laws concerning slander and libel, mess with the press, and establish rules and limits on gatherings and petitions, if and ONLY if it is in their State constitution to do so. Currently, all State constitutions have similar wording in them now, and no States have state religions.

    Of course, today, the SOA (what used to be the federal government) no longer recognizes the Constitution of the United States or the constitution of any State.

    Censorship is censoring.

    Big Tech practices censorship not just against Trump but against conservative voices. It’s not even debatable. Is it an abridgment of First Amendment rights? No, because it involves private entities.

    But don’t say it’s not censorship because it is.
