So now that DC riots are over ...

[Keith&Co.]

He added that governments, not private companies, should decide on any limitations to freedom of speech.

Um, yeah.
We did that.
First Amendment.
A few court cases appended.

Twitter has it's own free-speech right to write their terms of use.
Bonespurs violated those rules.
They FINALLY kicked him off.
It's not a free speech violation.
And it's not a newly invented right....

 

[Keith&Co.]

He wasn’t just banned from Twitter. He was banned from nearly all social media sites. He was unpersoned. Stalin would be proud.

But it wasn't one government or one political party's decision to ban him.
His loss of access to five social media platforms was the result of five decisions by five businesses.

If i start fights in five bars and get permanently kicked out of five bars, that's five mistakes _I_ made, not the sudden imposition of Prohibition.

Did anyone kick him off of a platform where he behaved? THAT might be a little much, jumping on a bandwagon. But then, it's not like he's spewing vitriol every place EXCEPT Twitter.

 

[GenesisNemesis]

Why should we assume that? There are many people who actually believe this garbage.

That point should be well taken. "Many people" are fucking morons, "many people" still believe Trump's Big Lie in the absence of any shred of evidence to support it. "Many people" think banning the marmalade moron from Twitter is "Orwellian".

Last I checked Trump still has 70 million+ supporters by his side at any moment. You call that "unpersoned"?

Is that Waaambulance back at quarters yet?

If Trump is "unpersoned" it's because he is an un-person.
There is a bigass shiny podium standing in the Press Room of the White House, where

every single TV network in the Country

would show up to hear, record and broadcast whatever stupid thing the Danger Yam had to say.

He has nothing to say.
He is an un-person. An empty suit. A hapless fool. Giving tinpot dictators a bad name.
Stalin would be so embarrassed he'd probably die. Again.

In fairness he is probably down below the 15 million level now.
As we have seen though, it takes a fraction of one percent of them to wreak unspeakable violence in His Name.

Regardless, Trausti's "complaint" is as hollow as his head. The fucker has the bully pulpit all to himself but doesn't know how to use it.

My question — Is the following post (#19) sincere? Or is it a sarcastic caricature? — is quite sincere. I will appreciate it if someone answers. RVonse?

Isn't the more interesting question whether those in power will use 1/6 as an excuse to curtail domestic civil liberties?

There is that. But there is much much more.

The Establishment has now put out calls for retribution against US Senators and Representatives who supported Trump’s attempt to have the evidence of electoral fraud examined. Nonpartisan professionals have found and reported evidence of electoral fraud is overwhelming. Yet it has been deep-sixed without ever being examined. In place of examination, from day one the presstitutes, none of whom looked at the evidence, repeated endlessly that there was no evidence. Trump, and not the stolen election, was blamed for discrediting American democracy.

The American Establishment is not through with Trump and his supporters. Propaganda campaigns against them could well end in show trials.

Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, like the print and TV media and NPR, are employed to shut down non-establishment explanations. Consequently, new social media organizations, such as Parler have arisen as uncensored forums. Judging from information sent to Mark Crispin Miller and posted on Notes from Underground ( https://markcrispinmiller.com ), Parler is now under attack: “BREAKING – Apple has given #Parler a 24 HOUR ULTIMATUM to implement a “moderation plan” or it’s getting scrubbed from the app store.” If this hasn’t yet happened, it will. “Moderation,” of course, means compliance with Establishment wishes. [Update: Parlor scrubbed–https://thehill.com/policy/technolo...down-on-parler-for-lack-of-content-mediation]

The world does not understand that the American Establishment has a propaganda organization that shames the one assembled by Joseph Goebbels. The American media, never very independent, lost all semblance to independence during the Clinton regime when 90% of the US media was concentrated into six hands and converted into a completely obedient tool of the Establishment. Anyone who doubts this should explain why on every issue the presstitutes speak with one voice, which is never the voice of the people.

Well, wait, wait.
In a little while, he's going to go to Alamo to show off his Wall.
We'll see if the commie=pinko-fags of social media manage to talk every single TV network on the continent out of broadcasting his image, his words, his gestures, his fucking posture, to the far corners of the known world.

Can't really say he's not unpersonned until he actually tries to broadcast something somewhere to someone.

 

[Keith&Co.]

It's sincere.
He really does think he's supposed to think that the whole issue here is that no one has ever given The Right a chance to present the evidence for their cries of election fraud. In all, what, 56 court cases? No one ever listened to the evidence, ever gave them a chance to present it.
This is their story and they must stick to it in hte media.
They don't dare try to present it in court, or they'll be disbarred while jailed for contempt. But the Media narrative must be preserved, thus RVonse helps flog it. Else he must examine reality, and that'll be disconcerting.

Do you realize what you're claiming here?

That the elected officials aren't the government anymore. Corporations are the government now, which I agree with.

But it's not like the Trumpistas or Citizens United have a problem with that, as far as I know.

[ZiprHead]

Replace people with whiny little babies.

 

[Politesse]

Breaking news: Trump fan thinks that Trump fans are discriminated against because no one handed them a free microphone.

 

[Trausti]

Lolz. Yeah, whatever. Fucking hypocrites.

Defending people who tried to stage a coup against the United States.

Lolz. Yeah, whatever.

 

[Elixir]

... you folks can go back pretending that rioting, attacking government buildings and assaulting elected officials are legitimate means to getting what you want.

While you're still pretending your "conservative" allies are not only overtly threatening violence against the sacred PROPERTY, but also those relatively unimportant PEOPLE who were elected in free and fair elections to represent us?
No chance Komrade. Your side declared war, and it looks like that's what you're going to get. We are going to have to kick your racist asses ... AGAIN.

 

[Elixir]

Lolz. Yeah, whatever. Fucking hypocrites.

Poor Trausti. Orange man too chicken shit to appear before the nation.
Tough beans. Go join your murderous, violence-threatening comrades in stupidity,. Maybe you can get a Darwin award.

But he didn't. If you believe that you'd probably believe anything.

Yeah, maybe even that there was election fraud and that the Trump won, by A LOT!

 

[Trausti]

This reminds me of few decades ago when "family value" conservatives where caught in sexual trysts. Or more recently when male feminists turned out to be stalking rapists. All those who for the past four to five years brayed that the opposition were fascists, reveal themselves to be the fascists.

Challenging election results is not a coup. It's happens all the time. You're ignorance doesn't change that.

Reminds me of when a TFT poster who had been complaining about socialists intruding on the business of private Companies, shit his pants over Companies banning his favorite moron to protect themselves from the liability that his favorite moron visited upon them. Fucking hypocrite.
