There is no longer “a tweet for everything” unless his tweets are still archived on something like tweet tunnel. IP: Logged |

A private group is different from a public forum. You can't be that naïve.Blocking communication is the communists' playbook. IP: Logged |

It’s one website/app. And they had a good reason for it. He incited a coup. IP: Logged |

So, dictatorial regimes can threaten genocide to entire countries (such as Iran threatening to wipe out Israel) and the killing of homosexuals, but Twitter doesn't ban them? Hypocrisy much?IP: Logged |

And now Apple is threatening to block Parler unless they censor conservatives. We knew this would happen if Biden "won." It's going to get much worse.IP: Logged |

There is bipartisan support to reign in these social media platforms. Section 230, maybe not as much, but breaking them up, yes.IP: Logged |

Trump had his chance to reign in the technocrats.

Im more concerned over acct like techno_fog being censored than I am with Trump's tbh. Beanz is worrisome as well, tho I wasn't a fan.Techno, for any who didn't follow, was an attorney who posted legal reviews and court documents. He rarely shared personal opinions, and never outlandish conspiracy theories. His disappearance is the sort of move we should all be concerned over, left or right. I would like very much if one of the pro censorship Progressives here could explain to me why they support this. IP: Logged |

He can put out statements, since he is still the president. He can hold a press conference, unless people don't show up (but you know they would). He could start a patreon account, if he doesn't already have one, and he doesn't break the rules there, too. He could start a blog. A parler account? I'm surprised that he isn't streaming on youtube.

You can probably log in on a browser, just like twitter. IP: Logged |

teasel, have you not been paying attention? A patreon acct? Youtube??? they have grand purges of conservative "nazi" accounts everyday. He could hold a press conference but which network would broadcast it? Have you ever followed in real time or even studied a political purge? Ever??? Do you not know how this works? IP: Logged |

The power to revoke Section 230 lies with Congress, not the President. He called repeatedly for Congress to revoke Section 230, they didn't. IP: Logged |

That’s how I feel a lot of the time. You were talking about a revolution happening, and then you decided that antifa was behind it all. IP: Logged |

A political purge? He incited a coup - so did Flynn. He hasn’t been arrested yet, which is astounding to me. IP: Logged |

Apple, Google, etc - they all have the right to remove Parler from their stores, too. Trump still has fingers to type with, and a tongue that allows him to speak. His children still have their accounts. Nobody has put them in front of a firing squad. Doesn’t Alex Jones have his own setup? What’s stopping the billionaire from doing the same? I saw that he posted to the potus account, before they deleted those tweets, too. He promised something big was on the way, so I’m sure that he won’t let you all down. IP: Logged |
