"silencing people is what happens in China" (Nikki Haley)

Nikki Haley trolled the UN hard, she wonders why everyone doesn't just keep talking like herself. ��

why did they also ban Sidney Powell ? Michael Flynn ? maria bartiromo? as well?
They wernt there or said anything.
Twitter is fascist, FB not much better -and while it's not a first amendment issue it does act to silence free speech

No matter what your politics, that shows the fascist intent and execution of these platforms

If they did, probably for the same reasons, spreading lies that they see have the potential to inspire violence, after watching the events of last Wednesday, Flynn’s calls for the need for martial law raises alarms

Not fascist, they are a private entity, if it was a bad decision, they will get hurt in the marketplace, you people are just upset cause social media is just about the only way Trump can communicate, it’s his shortcoming

Fuck Nikki Haley. Just another enabler running for the exit sign.

No one has a right to social media. Don’t play by the rules, you get your ass kicked off and getting kicked off Twitter does not equate to silencing anyone, especially for the POTUS. There are about a zillion mics and podiums he could step up to and tell lies to if he wasn’t such a fucking coward.

Haley is an embarrassment to her amoral party, even those loons can't stand her

Spin it all you want but silencing is silencing.

The permanent in permanent ban is all you need to know.

And there is nothing wrong with them silencing Trump, or anyone else they deem undesirable, the spin is on the right, they are only upset cause it is the only means Trump has to express his views, it is Trump’s own fault he is so limited

You mean there’s nothing illegal about it.

It flies square in the face of *the principle* of free speech.

On their platform, yes, they can become the “arbiters of speech,” book publishers don’t have to print every manuscript someone sends them do they? They gave their reasons, and you may not agree with them, others do, speech has never been absolute

No it doesn’t, the social media platforms are private entities, they can edit as they choose, and they gave a clear explanation for the ban, not about free speech, Limbaugh doesn’t have to air every person who calls his show does he?

well she is a REPUBLICAN so your mind cant process the distinctions -no problem

my concern is the arbitrary and capricious nature of banning. i'm sure you get the idea that social media
is the new so called "town square" -where instead of "getting on our soapbox" we log in to communicate

It's not a healthy democracy where that is impeded -we need full political discourse

USMessageboard moderators, usually. They have nothing but bigotry and fallacy but want to be taken as seriously as the "gospel Truth". They are just plain political liars regarding their claims to believe in our First Amendment and prefer to just love their guns.

OK ty for the info..
as whacked out and insulting as we are with each other here ( and I plead guilty to being sucked into that)
we do have enormous range within to express our ideas.

Twitter blows chunks.
I dont mean the biased ideology, but the "mobs",and parroting -and most of all the cancel culture
is anathema to a free society

now you are just making shit up. and yes they did ban them all.

do you really want to go with "spreading lies?" is that the standard?
because if so- the entire platform/users violate that at times.
"Potential to inspire violence" is such an elastic definition,it can be applied to most anything.

I wont even get into the capricious and uneven enforcement of the "rules"

:) Again, hilarious. This isn’t communication, this is nothing more than political venting. Nothing gets solved in here.

You should have considered the value of a healthy democracy before you signed up for the clown show of baseless lies and childish insults.

Yeah- say the people that wanted to make criticism of Izraeli fascism illegal- and support for it mandatory.

that's fucked up too.. frankly I'm amazed at the so called "tolerant left" allowing for an intolerant Smedia
I thought we would all agree unfettered political speech is needed..silly me

Stop crying, as I just told one of your comrades, the social platforms explained why they banned Trump, after Wednesday, they saw his messages as a potential to inspire violence.

And forget the irrelevant autocratic comparisons, as you Trumpkins love to say, show us in the Constitution where it says someone has the right to tweet

I thought Haley was smart at one time, she’s not.

And that is where you are mistaken, viewing social media as something it isn’t, above and beyond everything, it is a public entity, we don’t get “full political discourse” on talk radio or cable demagogues’ show. In the ideal world, the marketplace decides social media’s fate.

I am not sure about it, but the right is only upset cause it is Trump, and social media is his only means of communicating
