    I have not norticed the left calls everything racist. As I said I have seen far more of that from those self identified right here.
    No one is demanding you to keep quiet. They just ask you to stop lying about their opposing views.
    If they don't agree with you, they are not trying to shut you down. They too have a right to their views and don't like being told to keep quiet either.
    I am still waiting for a proper acknowledgement of my issue with your accusing the POTUS of being racist. See,this sort of lazy loose brained accusation is what they don't l8ke, and which you want to get away with. And when they challenge you you call it trying to shut you down.
    Well I am still waiting for some proof of the raciam you charge the president with.

    It has absolutely happened, you just haven’t been paying attention. That is not my fault.

    the left absolutely is, and it’s not working.

    The left calls truth lies and then call for silencing opposite views.

    Brandon has a demonstrated history of racism, it’s not my fault you refuse to do your own research.

    You seriously have no idea what you are talking about.
    You will be telling me George Floyd wasn't really killed by a racist cop even though due process was scrupulously followed.
    Sort your own racist cops out before you comment on those elsewhere.

    Yep!

    Members of Truth Social can share Trump's posts on their Twitter and Facebook accounts and other social media platforms.
    At the bottom of each of his posts he has the "share" thingies.

    GIVE ME AN EXAMPLE.
    I don't accept your opinion as fact.
    You made the accusation and if you can't provide proof I will continue to assume you are making it up..

    I know exactly what I’m talking about and I am objectively correct. You are projecting.

    I’m telling you that there is no systemic racism in police departments and your anecdotes don’t prove anything. And nothing about his actions were proven racially motivated, you assume it because you have been socially engineered to see racism as an issue anytime a white officer kills a black person.

    You have been thoroughly refuted.

    The left still shouts hands up don’t shoot lmao.

    You call no proof a refutation?
    Man, you know so little about the London Met. that you can't even discuss it!. Who was recently fired from being the Met's chief officer? Under what circumstances,? For how l9ng? Not to mention one officer murdering a young girl and years of racist sexist message exchanges. But you don't know about them cause you don't know what you are talking about.
    Did Floyd die because of a racist cop in the US?
    And now it is YOU who want to shut down discussing it by trying to DECLARE your truth.
    It won't work. All your impossibly empty dodge and weaves are as effective as spaghetti spears.
    I am afraid your declarations of your truth bear no semblance to truth and reality, as much as you would like them to do so.

    I’m pointing out the objective reality, it’s on you to do your own research.

    I am objectively correct about it. It’s exactly as I said.

    Floyd died because of his drug OD killed him. There was no evidence that race was involved as a factor in the officers actions. You assume race was, despite having zero evidence of it.

    I’m not shutting anything down, that’s simply not true. I’m pointing out the truth regardless of how you choose to “feel” about it.

    You can be wrong and disagree. That’s fine.

    The verdict was he died because a historically racist cop stood on his neck for 9 minutes.
    The cop had form and used to track Floyd.
    I go by legal and professional investigation.
    You go by what you wish was the reality.

    I have to say, your appeal to the left nor to challenge you but just to accept your vision is wearing a bit thin.
    Now that makes two police forc3s clearly guilty of racism.
    When someone like you says there is no racism in policing,it is perfectly acceptable for someone to challenge you and they may do so on the grounds of racism because that is quite possible. As shown.
    Now shall we return to your accusation that Biden is a racist? Did you read the link I sent? After all you asked me to do some research.

    The verdict stands in opposition to the evidence. The evidence demonstrated he had a lethal OD. And there was zero evidence the officer acted due to racial motivations.

    You can choose to believe whatever you want, the investigation didn’t reveal what you claim. The justice system simply gave way to the mob, as is a common occurrence.

    you continue to claim he acted on racism yet cannot prove it nor did the prosecution. You assume it, as did the justice system that day.

    I don’t care what you find is wearing thin. I don’t require your permission to point out the truth you dislike.

    Did you read the official report
    or just "shut ot down" because you dont like
    the result?
    You have form there...you never explored the London Met findings either did you?
    Don't tell me to do research. And then post in ideological ignorance.
    I would think you could do better that allow others to speak through you. For your argument rests solely on your fabrication of what should be the case instead of what is as do all flagwavers who don't speak. They just wave their arms about and fill-in the spaces.
    And when asked for what you defend you can't supply any.
    No wonder people don't accept your "truth".

    Derek Chauvin was never charged or convicted of a hate crime. A necessary ingredient to claim that he did it for racist reasons. He was charged and convicted for second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. No investigation turned up evidence that Chauvin was racist. The left simply call him racist because he was a white person that killed a black person. Not out of any factual basis.

    As for Biden being racist:

    • When trying to explain away the reason that Latino's were not getting vaccinated as much as other groups he said it was because they were worried that they would get deported. Obviously he can't imagine Latino's being actual citizens.
    • He said that desegregating busing would force white kids into "growing up in a racial jungle".
    • He said of Obama: "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean." Last I was told, that was racist as all get out.
    • He also said: "You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent."
    • He also said: "poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids".
    • He selected his VP based on race and gender. Before he had even selected who it was to be he straight up said that he would only choose a woman and a person of color. He put race and gender at the forefront and didn't care about skill. (obviously since everything Kamala has touched has turned to crap)
    • He told a black guy "You’ve got more questions? Well, I tell you what, if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black."

    I can go on and on if you'd like. And no, I'm not going to post a link to these. Look them up yourself. That way you will have to get it from sites you trust and cannot shoot my messenger while ignoring the message.

    Yes, they made a dicisioin based on the opinion. But let's look at the facts here. Trump has said, as early as when Musk was in the process of acquiring Twitter, that he will not rejoin the platform if he is allowed back in. Trump has repeated made those statements on his own social media account, and other places. The question you have to ask yourself is was Musk listening to those comments by Trump? If yes, then why do the poll anyway knowing full well that Trump won't return? If he was not listening to Trump, then does that make Musk even more gullible in conducting the poll? Either option is not good for Musk and Twitter, which means there was another reason other than Trump in which Musk unbanned him.

    Companies, like social media platforms, discussion forums, etc, must use consistency with bans, temporary or permenant, deletions of posts, edits of posts, etc. If it is consistent, then the users know what to and what not to do on those platforms. Otherwise, it is that "free for all" that Musk desperately does not want. And that will mean advertisers leaving, content creators leaving, and revenue dropping far worse than what California is expecting.

    In other words, play chess, not checkers here.

    Personally, I believe 100% that Trump will eventually be back on Twitter...
    Maybe sooner than anyone thinks...
    But, certainly at some point before the Nov. '24 Election...
    At least Elon Musk (as Twitter's Owner) can pump up Musk's obviously padded "Follower's Stats"...

    Trump already has his two sons on there. So, he will use them as proxy to convey is wishes, statements, arguments, etc. I don't think he will be back. It would mean abondoning Truth Social and admit failure for that company that he created. Even if the company goes under, I don't think he will be back either. He will use this to his advantage, for sure, but he will still criticize Twitter for what it is in his rallies, among other things.

    Of course majority support freedom of speech, but this has nothing to do with Freedom Of Speech, which is defined in the Constitution as something the CONGRESS cannot prohibit. Private companies, including Musk, can do whatever they want. If they want to allow people to use the platform to organize violent riots, and insurrections, then so be it (as long as its not against the law).

    As for moderation in a privately held platform, hard-core porn sites are in total agreement with it, or they would be put out of business. As a matter of fact, you'll be seeing lot of porn in Twitter soon if they opt for the "no-moderation" approach, as you suggest.

    I don't know, because if he goes back on Twitter his fan base would follow and leave Truth Social (which has only hard-core apologists) and it would drive him out of business.

    ...and he probably won't since he's trying to promote Truth Social. But the very idea that he could is driving some people crazy.

    It's smart of him not to. He still draws attention, and so he is smart to direct it to his preferred platform.

    Everyone can see you are misrepresenting other people views and points

    Trying to silence you? How are they trying to do that?

    An addendum to the above:

    This morning, across the Net, on various social media platforms, even over on Twitter, the meltdowns continue. Despite the fact, Trump announced that he won't be back to Twitter, they still moan and groan, and stomp their widdle blue feet. I bet Donald J Trump is laughing his ass off.

    One more thing, since the reinstatement, millions started to follow him. He now has more followers than Joe Biden. Now that's funny. ;)
