It's starting. Anything conservative will now be silenced. Biden has already said he was going after the NRA and now a large firearm site has been shut down. You can bet your last dollar blm's site won't get shut down, they won't get booted from Facebook and Twitter won't touch them at all. I'm not sure if I should say welcome to 20th century Germany or 21st century China. Either way, both would be proud.
And how did this website contribute to this violent attempted coup or a year of racist left wing riots?
And now Facebook banned Ron Paul. Facebook censors libertarian Ron Paul amid Big Tech purge “With no explanation other than ‘repeatedly going against our community standards,’ @Facebook has blocked me from managing my page. Never have we received notice of violating community standards in the past and nowhere is the offending post identified,” Paul tweeted. His most recent post linked to an article he wrote denouncing “shocking and chilling” censorship on social media. https://nypost.com/2021/01/11/facebook-censors-ron-paul/
Probably filled with RW crazies like twitter and Parler who are calling for hanging people because they lost an election.
How do you know he violated Facebook when all you see is what he says and he says at no time has Facebook moved against him until now.
That is what big tobacco used to think. What big pharma once believed. Thank god we still have republican ran courts of law. That is the legacy of Trump, his courts.
I read your comment not as a true question but as a statement of fact. Same as above. How do you know he violated TOS of Facebook?
My guess is like many websites, it had a forum section - and in that forum section things were said that violate GoDaddy's corporate policies. Ahh, remember when conservatives called for shutting down any Muslim web sites? Welcome to the world you created, conservatives. Remember when conservatives cheered when the Supreme Court ruled a private company like a baker could not be forced to put gay propaganda on it's creations?
I agreed with taking a stance against Trump but indeed this is starting out to be Communist China. Its big tech to start, human rights violations to follow.
I imagine that a lot of these bans will be lifted once the Inauguration is in the rearview mirror ... there is just too much chatter about attacking government facilities right now to be complacent.
I hope that's all this is. I've criticised China since 2013 for its government and whether R or D, no one should strive to emulate Communist China.
After the events of the last week, it should be elected that there would be an over-reaction toward the suppression of the web sites being used by MAGA people who are calling for invading Capitol Buildings and making threats to Pelosi, Pence and others. I would hope that after the 20th, things might calm down ... unless of course, there are further attacks. We all remember how crazy things got after 9/11.
I doubt the bans will be lifted. The woke staff wouldn't stand for it. When the left unpersons somebody, they stay unpersoned.
Now would be a time for Trump to be presidential, tell these goons to knock it off with a secure joint press conference with Biden but Trump's only about himself.
They probably looked more closely at his posts. I know they just banned anything about stop the steal.
