    Came across this article that had a pretty good breakdown of how "wokeness" is driving the American left (and I assume the left in other Western nations) off the deep end.

    That graph showing the stark out-group bias of white liberals was the best though .... I mean, you could not possibly find a group MORE averse to mixing with POC, than white Progressives. They're like the lily whitest whitey white pants .. "I love my germano-celtic culture more than life itself" separatists there are. They adore everything about their euro-centricity, including the freedom it gives them to have these thoughts in the first place. Most wouldn't last a week in an exotic household, much less a brown society.

    They so utterly stupidly transparent, that it becomes high comedy.

    Fallacious premise. Why do you have to talk to the president thru twitter exactly? You can send him an email. You can post to the White House site, you can write him a letter, you can message him thru his campaign site. Your "constitutional right" to communicate with the President is not impugned. But if you do no abide by the terms and conditions of usage of the twitter application you give up the right to use the service.


    Not penetrating. I get it.




    Its not my failure to communicate, it is that your adamant opinions are not supported by facts nor do they demonstrate any understanding of what kind of company twitter is.

    The fact that you cannot differentiate between an Operating system platform, a networking platform, an application development platform, is obvious.

    That you argue that nobody using an operating system platform was banned from using it base on their political views shows a profound lack of knowledge of what the hell that kind of platform actually does and how it is used.

    because Twitter made it available.

    emails are hosted by private companies they can ban you and forbid you from using their services just like Twitter can.

    can I message him on Twitter if not then yes it is.

    Jack Dorsey has allowed that line of communication to exist if he didn't want his platform made into public space you should not have in the first place.


    the same should apply to telephone companies and television. If you don't have the right to politics or abide by the terms of service which is code word for you don't have the right politics, you shouldn't be allowed to use a phone. Phone companies are private companies they should be allowed to ban you based on politics.




    yes it's called hitting the bullshit filter. You don't want bullshit the penetrate the bullshit filter.






    I haven't stated any opinions.

    the only distinction that there is that you refuse to understand is that Jack Dorsey has a special right to remove you because he doesn't like you. Android cannot bar you from using their products because they don't like you. No other platform is able to do that.
    Okay I'll use another communications platform that are very much similar.

    phone companies are private businesses with private contracts with their people. they don't get to just change the contract halfway through it and throw you off because you are disagreeing with their political beliefs.

    Why should Twitter or Facebook be allowed to do that? What makes them special?

    That's the problem anymore people forget this basic concept.... Life is all a matter of perspective. Two people can be looking at a ball and because of different perspectives one calls it a ball and the other calls it a sphere. People have different world views and that's ok

    difference is when you have a differing point of view with a conservative they want to debate you on it convince you their point of view is better
    a liberal wants to just say you are ignorant call you racist a bigot call you evil try to silence you

    Oh they are going after a hell of a lot more than hate. They are taking out meditation channels, gaming channels, historical channels and educational channels set up by educators. Thousands of channels have been affected.

    How are you going to justify taking out this guy who has never done a political video?


    Can we at last say openly what is as plain as day? The parts of the left that hold power are becoming evil. Their actions over the past year have been downright shocking and vile with regards to free speech. Completely and utterly indefensible. If they win this battle against America's core values, American civilization will die. This is the hill we as conservatives must die on. This is the fight we can not lose. This is as significant as WWII and the Civil War. This is as existential as it can get.

    I can't say I disagree with this. I do think this is a very very ominous turn, because it has the potential to reach into commerce generally. Or big business to start with, and then potentially some kind of Brown Shirt 'sanctioned via blind eye' (as per police in Portland Oregon) harassment of small businesses based on their clientele. It could easily become a 21stC Spanish Inquisition.
    As more and more absurd and very poorly defined laws are ratified and enshrined, the closer we inch to lights out. You can actually see the darkness creeping towards you.

    And god knows why they've never stopped to think about what happens when the wind changes (as it always does), and the Inquisition is turned upon them. Either incredibly short memories, or just incredibly stupid. To wish for powers that you'd never want your enemy to have, is the stupidest thing imaginable.

    yes, there is mistakes, like the keto or carnivore sites that are effected, they need to work on auto detecting fake complaints that trigger the banning system, I would recommend a couple humans all have to pull the final trigger - otherwise you have vegans complaining about meat eaters, Christians against Muslims, Muslims against Christians, right vs left, left vs right and the list goes on issuing fake complaints

    just like here, if this site auto banned you if so many complained, people could abuse the system - doesn't mean some do not need to be banned, just means real humans need to be involved and not just all automated

    The problem is "who gets to decide". Almost any political speech could be claimed to promote violence or discrimination in one form or another.

    ^Epic FAIL of a post.

    Here is the Bottom LINE:

    Dorsey hasn't gone far enough.

    Dorsey NEED to BAN Trump from Twitter.

    Problem Solved.

    (Dorsey ought to give Trump a 3-Day Ban--Just to Mess with Trump--Just to See how that Whiny Little Snowflake would react).:flagus:
