    I'll stick with my question thanks. What site has absolutely no counter information at all?

    When fact checks cause posts to be flagged or removed, when multiple violations of platform policy caused posters to be banned, the complaint is always bias. Not coincidentally, Trump said the said thing about the media when his lies were fact checked.

    And has there not been enough information on how fact checker and their algorithm's are designed? I'm kind of surprised that you or anyone would toss out something so researched and exposed..

    End of day fact checkers are no less unbiased or biased as the person/people behind the coding ;)

    LOL.. Then your media should all be massively skart..... cause that's all your team have done for years now. Lies, spread the lies on socials, have media report on lies, then reference other media as legitimate "news" and suddenly lies have a life of reality... You folks just never thought anyone would figure this out? And when you talk about "lies about election fraud", you must be talking about folks in the democratic party, like Stacey or Fauxcahontus, or others who questioned election results that resulted in their losses.... I think discussion is discussion. You look at these as "lies" because the challenge to your official narrative is so razor thin and transparent, the loss of your narrative is catastrophic to your overarching goals. You know what are actual lies democrats tell? Voter ID disenfranchises minorities. That's a lie. One which you've repeated here. And when you say "not allow the lies", is that really what you fear, is not being able to spread them any more??

    Twitter has no counter info at all? There are absolutely no conservatives at all on Twitter? None?

    The majority of the fringe elements are still there posting every day. It takes a lot for a high profile person to be banned. Marjorie Greene worked long and hard to get banned, and when she finally managed, she immediately started playing the victim of unfair moderation.

    Your link (British RW tabloid) makes the same claim as you, but just like you, they make the claim without any proof. Again, I watch the news every morning, and have not seen anyone freaking out about Musk buying Twitter. And then again.....why would they?

    Carry on corporal. I get it that its very important for you to think that everyone is freaking out, even if they are not.

    That falsehood feeds in to the notion Trump and his minions, like Kellyanne, have been pushing for some time. That truth is subjective. That there are alternative facts. That it's acceptable to believe up is down.

    You miss the big picture!

    This madness is not confined to JUST twitter, it's a plague infecting almost every facet of social and all types of media. Why do you think, well using the term loosely, WHY there is such a uproar by the left over one site :)

    leftist media freaking out over twitter - Search (bing.com)

    certainly not a complete fact check, but i did search for "twitter antifa" with this result from "youask"

    Is the Twitter account @Antifa_US part of Antifa?
    There are myriad Antifa-supporting Twitter accounts and none of them recognize @ANTIFA_US as a part of the group. Most importantly, while this is something that can't be verified since the account is now suspended, numerous sources within the anti-fascism community claim the account was only created to post that tweet and stir up outrage.
    Twitter Suspends Suspicious Self-Described Antifa Account

    IF antifa is organizing on twitter would someone post a link?

    That's what you have been told and what you insist on believing

    I see no evidence of it. but now that you provided your link I see where they planted the idea in your head. All the links insist the media is "freaking out", but when you look, you see no one freaking out.

    You've been played.

    It amazes me every time when I see RW media plant fake news out there, people like you flock to the social media to repeat it. Well, no, actually it doesn't amaze me anymore, because it has become a norm.

    Whatever gets you through the night bubba.
