Trump invites right-wing extremists to White House 'social media summit

the White House has requested the presence of far-right internet personalities and trolls, some of whom have pushed conspiracy theories, lies and misinformation.

It's perhaps the clearest example yet of President Trump legitimizing fringe political allies.

Among them are Bill Mitchell, a radio host who has promoted the extremist QAnon conspiracy theory on Twitter; Carpe Donktum, an anonymous troll who won a contest put on by the fringe media organization InfoWars for an anti-media meme

This is a DISGRACE to the Office of the Presidency.

Trump abusing his office to "legitimize" RW Fever Swamp Trolls.

I guess Trump is already lining up the RW Fever Swamp Troll Squad to spread BS during the 2020 Election Season?

What a disgrace.:smh:

Thoughts?

 

Free Speech is American. I don't have to agree with these people to have a dialogue. If they helped get Trump elected and they haven't done anything bad, then I would have to be a total un-American asshat to try and burn them down.

Please offer specific statements, quotes, etc... by either of these men that makes them a bad person.

You Leftists have developed a nasty habit of claiming people are evil with zero evidence.

 

He also invited Tim Pool and a number of other centrists who have found themselves on the wrong side of social media's litmus tests to come and speak about social media censorship.

 

Who do you think he should have invited instead?

 

On that topic, check this out.

Here's a great moment to remember who runs Wikipedia. Laughably biased article, opinions quoted as fact in the introduction, and Buzzfeed News given as a credible source.

 

Who cares?
More LW Fever swamp troll nonsense.
“trump is abusing his office”...yea okay, get back to me when he’s in jail
It’s his house, he can invite who ever he wants over for diner.
I love how he plays the left wing fascist troll swamp like a fiddle and they fall for it every time, winning!! MAGA

 

Speaking of extremists ... Obama is good buddies with Farrakhan, and he belonged to that hate-America church in Chicago.

 

So, people with anti-progressive views? How are they right wing extremists?

 

Blimey.Left wing extremists and antsemites full of hatred made it to the congress representing Democrats and some and less intelligent ones waste everyone's time by starting another pointless anti Trump thread.Get your priorities right.You"ve got people who hate America and Americans in the congress.They are 'democrats'.

 

My thoughts are summed up from the following SNIP's from the URL

SNIP
It's unclear exactly what will take place at Thursday's summit. The White House has declined to release any information about the event, including a general format of how it will be conducted or what is expected of attendees.

One person who plans to attend, who spoke to CNN on the condition of anonymity, said, "We're not sure what to expect. We're not sure if it's going to even be about policy."

"All I know is there is going to be a bunch of people in a room talking about social media," the person added. "It could be just more general, it could be vague. You know the president will be there so it could go in a number of different directions."

While the summit will include right-wing media personalities and people from conservative think tanks, it will not include representatives from the major social media companies. As first reported by CNN, neither Twitter nor Facebook received invitations to the event.

So, you are going to have a "social media summit" and not invite people from Twitter or Facebook??

Then it's a complete failure before it begins.

A fake victim strokefest...Boo Hoo... People are against us...

 

They have already spoken to Twitter and Facebook plenty this is to hear the other side.. And its ****ing disgusting that the Censor king himself Darcy is written an opinion spew piece and its considered news.

Funny he mentions Ali Alexander and his "attacks" on Harris but does not mention that Don Lemon ( you know the guy that works for the same company he does) said the same thing about her.

He claims "Diamond and Silk" spread "misinformation" but does not say or even hint what that could be..

Nevermind that three of the "extremists" are Black he left that part out.. When the **** does CNN ever leave that out?

 

See folks utter lying by Darcy and this is the reaction you get from the Educated left ^^^^^

 

Translation: Right-wing extremists = rational people that don't hate Trump.

 

Another oxymoron....

 

Tolerance, diversity, and equality!

/facepalm

here is a hint..

You are what you hate.. Enjoy that.

 

Translation: If you don't agree with irrational Trump haters you are not rational.

 

Maybe Louis Farrakahn like Obama did?

 

Not a smart by President Trump. Someone with political acumen would be doing their best to distance themselves from extremists.

 

Extremists = people the left doesn't like because they are not PC.

 

Explain how they are "extremists"..

What makes Ali Alexander or Diamond and Silk "extremists" for example..

Or are you listening to Darcy with no evidence ( which is the point of the article)

 

This is the cartoon mentioned in the CNN rant

I see nothing anti semitic

 

I’ll play devils advocate. Let’s say they are not extremists(opinions will vary) politics is all about optics and it’s just not savvy to feed into the oppositions narrative that the President is wheedling those on the far right.

Ben Garrison is an anti-globalist cartoonist, but trolls made up fake cartoons with his signature to make him look like the reincarnation of Hitler.

As for being anti Soros/anti Rothschilds = being antisemitic, claim that if you dare, but it's at your own risk, since the globalist lobbying of these groups is well documented so if it's antisemitic to point it out you're getting dangerously close to the line of basically saying that antisemitism gives an accurate view of reality.

 

You should never post a picture of yourself on the internet and especially this forum.....just saying.

 

Your aisle has a sizable amount of hypocrites in it, considering how often they complained about people who Obama invited to the White House. You’ve lost all semblance of any higher ground that you used to think you had.
