@drafterman
its a problem because they are censoring conseratives unjustly
If I create a restaurant, can I be able to say who uses it?
Why are you liberals such hypocrites? Does it come with liberalism, or are hypocrites drawn to liberalism?
You will rail against a men only or women only private club, but if Trump is the party banned, your liberalism suddenly takes a back seat to ownership rights.
The question is not about whether big tech has the right to limit or restrict who use their platforms, but whether it is constitutional to limit or restrict based on gender, race, and religious or political criteria. The supreme Court has ruled over and over that this kind of discrimination is illegal.
But we already know that when it comes to Trump, liberals will discard due process and fairness.
Barring specific protected classes of people, yes.
What the fuck are you talking about, ethang?
I've never in my life railed against men only or women only private clubs.
Political discrimination is not illegal.
There is no due process to discard here. We aren't talking about governmental entities.
the government can easily bring big tech to its knees, its done it to tiktok and microsoft in the 90's
Barring specific protected classes of people, yes.Is one of those "classes" the political class?
Why are you liberals such hypocrites? Does it come with liberalism, or are hypocrites drawn to liberalism?
What the fuck are you talking about, ethang?You are a hypocrite. You know full well a restaurant that barred Republicans would be unconstitutional.
So should an online platform that bars conservatives.
Your opinion about discrimination changes if it is Trump and conservatives being discriminated against. Like all liberals, you are a hypocrite.
I've never in my life railed against men only or women only private clubs.No, you just call a common phrase "violence" and support the banning of Trump on a web platform for political reasons.
Political discrimination is not illegal.Discrimination based on gender, race, religion, or political affiliation is illegal. It is your hypocrisy causing to to flip-flop now.
There is no due process to discard here. We aren't talking about governmental entities.Trump is a person. A citizen. So was Kavenaugh.
Your liberal hysteria will simply not be taken for granted anymore. Trump is not a racist, a fascist, or calling for violence.
His comments are not "insurrection". It is you liberals who have been violent. It is you burning down cities. Attacking security officers and peaceful citizens. It is you employing cancel culture, identity politics, and fake news.
No, political affiliation isn't a protected class,.
What hypocrisy have I displayed, ethang?
What the fuck are you talking about, ethang?
No it wouldn't.
No it shouldn't.
How has my opinion about discrimination changed?
I've never in my life railed against men only or women only private clubs.
I support the banning of Trump for inciting violence.
If Twitter wanted to ban him for political reasons, they would have done so long ago.
Note that the official POTUS account isn't banned, just Trump's personal account.
Also note the hundreds and thousands of conservatives not calling for violence that are also not banned.
Political discrimination is not illegal.
Discrimination based on political affiliation isn't illegal, ethang. Race, color, national origina, religion, and gender are covered by the Civil Rights Act. Political affiliation is not.
There is no due process to discard here. We aren't talking about governmental entities.
I'm not disputing Trumps personhood.
Trump is most certainly a racist and he was most certainly fanning the flames of insurrection.
I haven't done any of those things, ethang.
No, political affiliation isn't a protected class,.That must be how you liberals justify your discrimination.
Why are you liberals such hypocrites? Does it come with liberalism, or are hypocrites drawn to liberalism?
What hypocrisy have I displayed, ethang?Hypocrites usually do not see their hypocrisy. And I'm not trying to convince you of your hypocrisy.
What the fuck are you talking about, ethang?You are a hypocrite. You know full well a restaurant that barred Republicans would be unconstitutional.
How has my opinion about discrimination changed?When it's Trump being discriminated against, your opinion goes to, "it's ok and legal!"
I've never in my life railed against men only or women only private clubs.No, you just call a common phrase "violence" and support the banning of Trump on a web platform for political reasons.
I support the banning of Trump for inciting violence.Liar. You did not want any Democrats banned when they called for actual violence.
You did not want BLM banned when they were burning down cities and assaulting tpeople.
You support the banning of Trump because you are a hypocrite.
If Twitter wanted to ban him for political reasons, they would have done so long ago.They could not, though they wanted to. Now they have, and it was purely political.
Note that the official POTUS account isn't banned, just Trump's personal account.Like I said, political reasons.
Also note the hundreds and thousands of conservatives not calling for violence that are also not banned.Right, the Senate taking up the case of conservatives being unfairly treated on Twitter and FB is just a non-story.
Political discrimination is not illegal.Discrimination based on gender, race, religion, or political affiliation is illegal. It is your hypocrisy causing to to flip-flop now.
Discrimination based on political affiliation isn't illegal, ethang. Race, color, national origina, religion, and gender are covered by the Civil Rights Act. Political affiliation is not.That must be how you liberals conceptualize your discrimination.
There is no due process to discard here. We aren't talking about governmental entities.Trump is a person. A citizen. So was Kavenaugh.I'm not disputing Trumps personhood.No, you are opposing his due process rights.
Your liberal hysteria will simply not be taken for granted anymore. Trump is not a racist, a fascist, or calling for violence.
Trump is most certainly a racist and he was most certainly fanning the flames of insurrection.No he is not. Your liberal hysteria has joined your TDS. Thank God we had sane people in the Senate to keep the TDS loons at Bay.His comments are not "insurrection". It is you liberals who have been violent. It is you burning down cities. Attacking security officers and peaceful citizens. It is you employing cancel culture, identity politics, and fake news.I haven't done any of those things, ethang.It's called "derangement" for a reason Draft.
Trump wasn't blocked based on his political affiliation...
Since I am neither a liberal nor a hypocrite, I can't answer this.
I'm not asking you to convince me. I'm asking you to identify it.
You're talking out of your ass ethang. You just made this up (or are repeating something someone else made up) but you it's simply not backed up by reality and you can't back it up because there is nothing to back it up with. It's empty, hot air.
How has my opinion about discrimination changed?
And how is that a change?
I support the banning of Trump because he is a loatheseome person that spreads misinformation and incites violence.
If Twitter wanted to ban him for political reasons, they would have done so long ago.
Why couldn't they before?
No, if it was political, they would have banned both.
Most of what Congress does is a non-story.
His due process rights only apply to government actions. Twitter is not the government. There is no due process with respect to Twitter.
He is all of those things.
Trump is most certainly a racist and he was most certainly fanning the flames of insurrection.
I haven't done any of those things, ethang.
Can you show how I have done any of those things? No, you cannot.
Trump wasn't blocked based on his political affiliation...Of course he was. And now Democrats are talking about cancelling those who affiliated with Trump. Virtually everything done to Trump in the last 4 years by the Democrats was politically motivated.
Since I am neither a liberal nor a hypocrite, I can't answer this.You won't answer because you are a hypocrite
I'm not asking you to convince me. I'm asking you to identify it.I've pointed it out. You don't like it. Eh.
How has my opinion about discrimination changed?When it's Trump being discriminated against, your opinion goes to, "it's ok and legal!"And how is that a change?When it's one of your loony liberals you up in arms about discrimination.
I support the banning of Trump because he is a loatheseome person that spreads misinformation and incites violence.You and your loony Democrats opposed Trump before he even had a presidential record.
If Twitter wanted to ban him for political reasons, they would have done so long ago.They could not, though they wanted to. Now they have, and it was purely political.Why couldn't they before?The hypocrites were afraid the Senate would take away their special privileges.
No, if it was political, they would have banned both.Nope. Because Biden is about to take over the account, and their hypocrisy would be harder to deny and hide if they had to reactivate it for him.
His due process rights only apply to government actions. Twitter is not the government. There is no due process with respect to Twitter.Yet a renegade judge found that Trump could not block people from his Twitter account!
I haven't done any of those things, ethang.Antifa scum wore masks exactly for this reason. It's called "derangement" for a reason Draft.
Can you show how I have done any of those things? No, you cannot.You supported all of those things. Remember your old posts remain up for all to see. I didn't make you a hypocrite Draft. It just seems to come with your particular political bent.
Trump wasn't blocked based on his political affiliation...
We're not talking about the Democratic party, we're talking about Twitter.
Since I am neither a liberal nor a hypocrite, I can't answer this.
I won't answer because it's not a question about me.
I'm not asking you to convince me. I'm asking you to identify it.
You've made accusations, sure, but you've yet to point out or identify anything I've specifically done. You've made broad accusations about "liberals" and "Democrats" but nothing about me.
How has my opinion about discrimination changed?
And how is that a change?
I have never done this.
I support the banning of Trump because he is a loatheseome person that spreads misinformation and incites violence.
So?
If Twitter wanted to ban him for political reasons, they would have done so long ago.
Why couldn't they before?
I would hardly call the First Amendment a "special privilege" but it's nice of you to admit that the Republicans would try to take it away from people to protect their own.
No, if it was political, they would have banned both.
It wouldn't be hypocritical at all. I'm beginning to suspect you don't think you know what the word means.
His due process rights only apply to government actions. Twitter is not the government. There is no due process with respect to Twitter.
Right, restrictions on the government apply to actions taken by the government and its officials. Thus Twitter can ban the president because Twitter isn't the government, but the President can't block people because the President is a government official.
I haven't done any of those things, ethang.
Are you accusing me of a crime?
Can you show how I have done any of those things? No, you cannot.
I have supported none of those things. You are correct that my old posts remain up for all to see. So cite one. Cite one hypocritical post. Cite one post where I supported violence. Cite one post where I supported burning down cities. Cite one post where I supported attacking security officers and peaceful citizens.
One. Just one post, ethang. You brought it up, my posts are there for all to see. CITE ONE you coward.
We're not talking about the Democratic party, we're talking about Twitter.Is there a difference?
I have never done this.Your past posts say you lie.
So?TDS.
I would hardly call the First Amendment a "special privilege" but it's nice of you to admit that the Republicans would try to take it away from people to protect their own.Where did I say "First Amendment"?
Right, restrictions on the government apply to actions taken by the government and its officials. Thus Twitter can ban the president because Twitter isn't the government, but the President can't block people because the President is a government official.Lol!! Thanks for proving my point. You said, "There is no due process with respect to Twitter." Yes, but when you're a dweeb getting blocked by Trump there IS.
Are you accusing me of a crime?I'm accusing you of hypocrisy. Are you confused?
I have supported none of those things. You are correct that my old posts remain up for all to see. So cite one. Cite one hypocritical post. Cite one post where I supported violence. Cite one post where I supported burning down cities. Cite one post where I supported attacking security officers and peaceful citizens.One. Just one post, ethang. You brought it up, my posts are there for all to see. CITE ONE you coward.You are a deluded leftie Draft. You are convinced that all your motives and behaviors are righteous. You would simply insist that your post was not hypocritical. Like Congress saying their 1st impeachment of Trump was not partisan.Like I said to you, I don't need your agreement. I'm not asking for your approval. You are a hypocrite, of course you will not admit to it publicly. Take heart in that you are not alone. The entire democratic Congress is right there with you.Adam Schiff has evidence of Russia collusion remember?
We're not talking about the Democratic party, we're talking about Twitter.
Yes
I have never done this.
Which ones?
So?
Uhm, every political party opposites the other political party's candidate prior to their election. That's what campaigning is all about.
I would hardly call the First Amendment a "special privilege"...
The ability of Twitter to block whoever it wishes it protected by the First Amendment.
Right, restrictions on the government apply to actions taken by the government and its officials. Thus Twitter can ban the president because Twitter isn't the government, but the President can't block people because the President is a government official.
Are you accusing me of a crime?
No, I'm asking you if you are accusing me of a crime. Are you?
I have supported none of those things. You are correct that my old posts remain up for all to see. So cite one. Cite one hypocritical post. Cite one post where I supported violence. Cite one post where I supported burning down cities. Cite one post where I supported attacking security officers and peaceful citizens.
One. Just one post, ethang. You brought it up, my posts are there for all to see. CITE ONE you coward.
A single post. Cite one. Coward.
YesNot in function. Twitter and the MSM are arms of the Democratic party.
Which ones?If you don't lie, you won't have to remember when and where you did.
Uhm, every political party opposites the other political party's candidate prior to their election. That's what campaigning is all about.TDS is still TDS
The ability of Twitter to block whoever it wishes it protected by the First Amendment.Where did I say "First Amendment" hypocrite?
Right, restrictions on the government apply to actions taken by the government and its officials. Thus Twitter can ban the president because Twitter isn't the government, but the President can't block people because the President is a government official.Lol!! Thanks for proving my point. You said, "There is no due process with respect to Twitter." Yes, but when you're a dweeb getting blocked by Trump there IS.Right, because you have due processes to actions taken against you by Trump...On Twitter. So "There IS due process with respect to Twitter."
No, I'm asking you if you are accusing me of a crime. Are you?You are confused. You are accusing Trump of a crime. I am accusing you of hypocrisy.
I have supported none of those things. You are correct that my old posts remain up for all to see. So cite one. Cite one hypocritical post. Cite one post where I supported violence.

You would simply insist that your post was not hypocritical.
A single post. Cite one. Coward.Grade school taunts will not move me. Debating deranged people about whether they are deranged would be silly. I was brave enough to point out your hypocrisy.
No they aren't.
Which ones?
Exactly, there are no such posts.
Uhm, every political party opposites the other political party's candidate prior to their election. That's what campaigning is all about.
So when Trump opposed Clinton before the election, that was TDS? You're not making any sense.
The ability of Twitter to block whoever it wishes it protected by the First Amendment.
Nowhere.
The "special privilege" here is the first amendment.
Right, restrictions on the government apply to actions taken by the government and its officials. Thus Twitter can ban the president because Twitter isn't the government, but the President can't block people because the President is a government official.
Right, because you have due processes to actions taken against you by Trump...
Not, on Twitter, anywhere.
No, I'm asking you if you are accusing me of a crime. Are you?
What was the point of mentioning that Antifa where masks when I responded that I have not engaged in criminal activities as them, except to imply I did engage in said criminal activities but was disguised?
I have supported none of those things. You are correct that my old posts remain up for all to see. So cite one. Cite one hypocritical post. Cite one post where I supported violence. Cite one post where I supported burning down cities. Cite one post where I supported attacking security officers and peaceful citizens.
One. Just one post, ethang. You brought it up, my posts are there for all to see. CITE ONE you coward.
What post?
A single post. Cite one. Coward.
Where did you point it out?
they bring companies down to their knees all the time
But if all you are going to do is hurl slander, I have more important things to do.
If you want to speak like a grown adult, we can do that.
Do you just mean that Twitter isn't governmentally funded? If so, just say that! Terms exist for a reason.
