Don't even try to say they are less dangerous. Twitter is understandable because they try to moderate what people post. But Apple, Google, and Amazon provide infrastructure to the Internet. Should Apple ban Twitter because they allowed Trump to post "dangerous" tweets on it for the past 4 years? Further, Trump has not been impeached yet nor charged with any crimes. Guilty until proven innocent is very dangerous and if you believe otherwise, you need a history lesson. Antifa isn’t even organisation and none of that is attributable to it but I’m gonna agree to disagree on that one. Also it’s not cute to compare white supremacist rage to Black freedom movements but ok, sure. Apple didn’t remove Twitter because it has moderation processes in place (as you’ve said yourself) that actively removes incitations of violence, while Parler does not. Apple gave Parler an ultimatum of either moderating itself or get banned — it chose the latter and faces the consequences that goes with it. Freedom of speech is whether the government can persecute you for what you say, this is private companies taking down parties on their platform that go against their terms and conditions. Apple, Google, and Amazon are not the only providers of infrastructure to the Internet, Parler can move to another host if they want. That’s how the free market works. Unless y’all believe in a regulated market now? What does Trump’s judicial process have to do with anything? headspin, happiness, DE̤̣A̢̯͔̘T͏͙̗̟̫H̗̙͡ͅ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guilty until proven innocent is very dangerous and if you believe otherwise, you need a history lesson. These are companies, not governments. Companies have a right to refuse service. They have stated their reasons, business reasons. Personally, I agree with them. Turn off the frenzied, angry, echo chamber of these pawns, so that they may begin to realize that they have been lied to for a very long time. Trump is trying to keep himself out of prison. He doesn't care how many pawns commit crimes in his brand logo, nor how those crimes affect their future lives. Attacking the building with the next 3 in the line of sucsession in one room, and threatening to hang the VP USA is a line that has been crossed. It cannot be walked back. ps. Calling them pawns, is too kind for most that participated in the attack. Some of them were probably out there making up and spreading the lies themselves.

Warning 432 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 2 hours ago, MonsterofFame said: Even if you hate Trump, you should be concerned with how tech companies are deciding which people and companies can exist on the Internet. For all the incoming "Omg you're such a Trump supporter for saying this" - think about whether utility companies should turn off power to people who have not yet been convicted of crimes. It's also disturbing how Antifa actively exists on Twitter still, Chinese politicians can post anti-US propaganda and not be moderated, and #KillAllCops can trend without a problem. Double standard, much? This, imagine how they would fume if for some reason Gaga or even LGBT+ would no longer fit narrative and suddenly should be banned, deleted from the whole internet, almost all members do not understand the true meaning behind this, in the end its not about Trump or Maga ir about freedom and how big tech can freely choose who can exist and who can be obliterated from existence, this only makes it worse, and not that it waa Trump, or his supporters, they should see or read 1984 by Orwell.

Double standard, much? There is nothing wrong with Antifa. Why don't you keep kissing Trump's a$$? Antifa is a left-wing anti-fascist and anti-racist political movement in the United States.
