Twitter banned Trump.
Trump has essentially been banned from the internet except for a Russian app.
Big tech is fast tracking censorship in the wake of this Capitol fiasco the same way the patriot act was pushed after the twin towers oh and in the same week Facebook are forcing whatsapp users to hand over their data to Facebook or forfeit using the app lol
People should have been using signal years ago anyway.

The man who sat in Nancy's office has been arrested and charged.
They were talking about storming the Capital, though. People got caught up in the energy and hype. After the energy and hype died down, people soon realize what they've done and then fled. They're not smart because this is 2021. Cameras are everywhere and social media is relentless. I don't feel sorry for them. Damaging federal buildings means federal charges. (Yes, the rioters who were doing damage this Summer should be charged as well.)

Loyalty is Royalty. Strength and Loyalty
This is the story. This is what people voted in. Bipartisan Antitrust subcommitttees in October already determined Google and Facebook to be anticompetitive monopolies that need to be broken up.
Biden is in Bed with Facebook. We will see if progressives aggressively pursue this. It’s something they should go after. But they won’t because they’re not really the trust busting progressives of the early 20th century. I guess we understood that when they tore down Teddy Roosevelt statues.
Any true progressive supports this wave of “right wing” censorship is essential helping dig their own grave.
Where the Bernie Bros.? This is their territory.
Don't know what Twitter gains from banning Trump, this will just piss off Republicans even more and cause greater divide.
Ofcourse there is also the arguement that Twitter is a private platform, Trump's tweets probably went against their terms and conditions. Trump just has to communicate the old fashion way through TV and Radio.
I doubt it goes anywhere but some Congress people wanted to go after the media conglomerates that carry Foxnews, OAN and other channels like that. They’re actively trying to censor and destroy a political party. It’s far fetched and I don’t see that happening but the fact that they are pushing it publicly tells you what they are.
I think Apple is trying to get Parler to censor as well.
It’s very blatant.
It also gets very tricky with section 230.
This was the big story that wasn’t going away and it started with the suppresssion of the Hunter Biden news and every too true journalist worth anything is talking about it right now.
Substack is where many guys like Greenwald and Taibbi are publishing now.

there's no 'divide' for people that aren't addicted to the internet. Twitter owes Trump nothing as a private company and most of the country think this shit's stupid and dramatic (though I support it cause I like chaos). All of this dumb ass 'divide' shit is just on the internet and internet based ppl will every now and then act on it but it's like a pack of crack heads talking about how we're going to worsting the crack drought. The people it's a problem too are the only ones this invested.
I think it's also ridiculous when republicans turn commie and start talking about what companies should and shouldn't do. It's literally a cumswapping organization trying to make money. If the p r e s i d e n t is dependent on it for sending messages that's his problem.
Twitter is not just a private company and it’s ridiculous to see them that way. They are essentially media at this point and need to be regulated as such. Twitter, Facebook, youtube are all extremely powerful platforms that can direct and change public opinion and it’s extremely dangerous to have them going rogue on free speech.

You don't have the right are shouldn't expect to have someone provide you an platform for your speech. Think of it as a letter to editor in a newspaper. They have the right to print what they want. A website makes money on advertisement the same and they have to do what is in the best interest.
Wasn't Trump continuously calling on his cult to boycott everything. NBA.NFL, Fox news,etc. So now they don't like it when they are the target.
Facebook, twitter and YouTube can determine elections on their own and it happened in Australia in the last federal election so of course they have to provide an impartial stance. It’s funny because the other side were complaining that media and YouTube were remove all traces of the Portland riots continuing to the point where most people didn’t know they were still happening but now it’s happening to the Trumpites then it’s a beautiful thing. It’s an extremely dangerous path to allow Zuckerberg to determine what is and what isn’t and what can and can’t be.
LOL these websites make money from selling your data the bowing down to advertisers is such nonsense they will
put their ads anywhere there’s attention.

They’re 100% violating antitrust laws, especially Google. But Facebook as well.
If those company’s weren’t monopolies, it’s be one thing. But the market can’t compete.
But Biden is in bed with Facebook, so it’s up to progressives like Bernie to decide to rock the boat. On principal he should, that’s been his whole career going after “billlionaires”.
Bernie kinda has them by the balls on this one. If he wants to make that move.
Your rights are only protected for sex,race,religion. Basically for who you are not protected for what you do, like incite riots which Trump did.
This is the world that b-dolo wants to live in
