Lilbit 1,596 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Good luck. In all seriousness Facebook does need to go, and google needs more restrictions and limitations. They’ve both caused more harm than good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starlit 68 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Good. I don’t like him, nor do I agree with what he says, but this censorship thing has gone too far. His freedom to say horrible things protects my freedom to call him a bigot. You Americans will never learn from history. Look at every other nation that started to censor some free speech. It’s a dangerous road. The best way to counter wrong speech is correct speech, not silencing people you don’t agree with. Learn to debate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His accounts were banned for spreading fake news like any account. Nothing to do with freedom of speech, why should he be above the rules, regardless of his opinion? COME ON GAYS!!

He's free to voice his opinions- just not on these websites where the owners have decided he has broken the terms & conditions of using the site.

gumzy3000 7,898 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 While I do think tech giants should be allowed to censor what goes on their sites as they are private companies but this opens the door for them to abuse this and censor things they do not agree with that can be in the "grey area" of things. This can obviously be problematic. I think they should allow people to say whatever they want but obviously remove extreme content and anything that incites violence. For politicians especially, they should have a team that analyses their tweets/content and rate how fake or real it is. This way, politicians like Trump will still have a platform to say stupid things but also at the same time, people will know how real or fake it is. trolly troll troll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KORG 4,756 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 He is a terrorist, plain and simple. Also, they have more access to more money than Trump could dream of. Especially combined. Isn't it about time he started having health issues? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is really off-putting when somebody tries to fit an over-compensated authoritarian monopoly company into a matchbox and pass it off as an every day occurrence. One day you will sorely regret your championship of censorship. Of course, we’re only censoring those you don’t agree with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
