    Twitter Censors Trump Tweet Denouncing Riots; Took No Action On Tweets Supporting Riots

    https://www.dailywire.com/news/twit...ts-took-no-action-on-tweets-supporting-riots/

    Twitter is officially censoring teh President of the United States, ending it's narrative that they are in support of Free Speech. This should open up lawsuits against Twitter as Twitetr refuses to censor China and ANTIFA, who regularly calls for violence against American citizens.

    Should Twitter be shut down?

    Twitter is no longer a public platform. They need to be held liable for all the content on their site. Sue them out of existence.

    I noticed that all the race baiters and their tweets were universally ignored by the Twitter. It speaks volumes that a private corp provided media can so actively collude to allow for actions that are contrary to both our constitution and the law. And yet, the pet leftist media protect them as they also censor the condemnation of the actions they also allowed to be called for on their platform. Twitter is now an enemy of this nation.

    Why?

    Twitter is just following its own AUP, almost.

    Simple fact is that almost anyone else would have been banned years ago.

    Twitter didn't "censor" Trump's tweet. It put up a notice about the tweet. Anyone who wants to see the tweet can.

    So what's your problem with a private business enforcing its terms of service?
    By creating the account Trump agreed to the TOS.
    Those attacking Twitter seem kind of Stalinist to me.

    By defending itself against a president who would deny its 1st amendment right to free speech seems Twitter is behaving in the interest of the USA while the Trumpinstas are doing the bidding of dictators and wannabe dictators around the world.

    1. Incorrect
    2. No - But I'd have no personal issues long term if it was, since I don't use it...

    But it would be hysterical if it was.... How would Trump notify America Twitter has been shut down if not through Twitter???

    Twitter lives on the back of government owned and controlled frequencies. Perhaps, given twitter's penchant for allowing the propaganda of China, Iran, and others to blanket their platform, Twitter should be removed from their ability to use the public airwaves and infra.

    True!

    For 9 years Trump has used Twitter instead of interviews because he could say anything he wants. Be as outrageous as he wants. Tell any lie. Repeat any lie. Without being challenged.

    Without Twitter Trump would have to be interviewed or have press conferences and answer questions. We've all seen how well that works for him.

    So, Donne, and all the little Donlings, cancel your Twitter account. Show Jack you can't be intimidated by the truth.

    So long. Buh Bye!

    Twitter allows free speech for hate groups, but not the President of the United States.

    What the hell are you ranting about?

    Twitter doesn't broadcast. It is a web site. You know. Internet...WWW...HTTPS://...THE THING AL GORE INVENTED!

    Do you think that because you access Twitter on your phone or on your wireless laptop that it makes Twitter a broadcaster? That Twitter is subject to FCC regulation?

    BWAHAHAHA

    I am going to save this post and add it to my signature.

    Goof riddance. Nice to see the left stepping up to condemn the twitter model... except... well you didn't. I'd suggest that Trump will be able to get his message out without media "interpreting it" for us even without twitter. Twitter now finds itself in the spotlight for their obvious political bias, and frankly it's not a good look for a platform who's basic tenant was always to allow the free flow of ideas.. And now, it doesn't. It does however, seem to really like publishing the ideas of folks who have violence in their hearts, and destruction on their minds. Of course, you believe in this, do you not? So, for you, you continue to support Twitter because it allows your brand of hate to get out and fester.

    I am guessing this is going to change pretty soon. Too bad, a platform like Twitter should have been balanced and not stifled speech from political groups that were not on the left and far left.

    Is Twitter censoring all the numb nuts claiming ALL black people aren't safe to walk the streets or the ALL cops are racist? I would hope so, because that's a statistically provable LIE.

    That got me thinking.... If old Joe Biden can become Prez in 2020, why can't Al Gore have a second run at it? He's actually 5 years younger than Joe.

    Can you imagine the rightie rage at back-to-back Biden/Gore presidencies...

    Worth the price of admission...

    So is this nonsense (although not said on Twitter - He would have, but his mouth is equally as filter-free as his fingers)

    “When they send out, like in California, millions and millions of ballots to anybody in California that’s breathing. Anybody that’s breathing gets a ballot,” Trump falsely claimed.

    Twitter is dead wrong
    it wasn't a glorification but a warning
    so if the president says if you dont evacuate during a cat 5 hurricane you could die is glorifying hurricanes?
