Sounds like you are recognizing that when one side controls what is allowed to be talked about on the internet you are effectively preventing freedom of speech, correct?

CCP also had a written declaration to recognize HK as an autonomous region until 2047 and...well, you know how that turned out

Hungary went from a democracy to an authoritarian govt at the drop of a hat

Governments need to be kept in check just as much as citizens do

the irony about calling trump, who wants to open up the country, a dictator, while the democratic governors and mayor are literally telling you you can't eat at restaurants, go to the stores you want, and have to stay home is incredibly ironic. Also he's supporting free speech, and against twitter censoring him, very much not like a dictator. I never see twitter fact check dems. It's completely political and obviously violates free speech

might be a good idea to declare certain services public utilities as soon as they reach a specific amount of users. twitter, ********, youtube all fall into that category.

as a general rule, private businesses should be able to do what they want, but as soon as pretty much everyone uses them it might be time to stop them from censoring people and being biased as chit. that's all.

Right. He has been a fine potus. But you wouldnt know that because of the propaganda MSM. His popularity ratings are higher than ever right now i believe (Or maybe that was like a month or so ago). Economically, he is probably one of the best. He would literally be the best if he read from a script and never went off it. But the bleach and lysol controversy proved that the media will make up bull chit just to push the agenda

except twitter didn't censor him. they tagged a fact page, as they did with the cop photo. He's the president and potentially spreading misinformation, on a medium he thinks will be unchecked.

seriously shut the fuk up lol you guys care waayyyy too much about this dude. he's not you or your relative, he's just some dude doing stupid sh*t. you should give two fuks about calling him out.

Why were Russian trolls spending a few thousand dollars to buy ******** adds the greatest threat to our democracy in 2016, but not a big deal at all that China has been spending hundreds of millions of dollars in order to push their agendas on American social media?

He literally said the below, did media make this up?

So supposing we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful, light — and I think you said that hasn’t been checked but you’re going to test it — and then I said suppose you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. And I think you said you’re going to test that, too. Sounds interesting.



Then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute, one minute. Is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside? Or almost a cleaning, ’cause you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it’d be interesting to check that. So you’re going to have to use medical doctors but it sounds interesting to me, so we’ll see but the whole concept of the light. The way it kills it in one minute, that’s pretty powerful.

They're private companies that are used by virtually every single person in the Western world under the age 50. I see what you're saying, but if we can regulate electricity, phone companies and so on, then I see no real issue with having big tech follow basic principles of non-partisanship and free speech.

But those companies actually charge money to use. Those regulations are meant to discourage price gouging, etc. Not to mention you can't really live without electricity, phone, etc.
Social media is free to use.

And you can live without social media.

except they added those tags to multiple pieces of information that might be or are skewed. not just liberal talking points, as I posted above.

there's nothing more to discuss here tbh lol they aren't just doing it to conservatives just bc trump tweets out stupid **** and got called out.

I know you are trolling, but Afghanistan, Iraq and Vietnam come to mind. Don't forget, America exists today because musket owning Americans stood up to the largest military empire at the time and won.

Also, just lol if you think American soldiers wouldn't fight back against a president telling them to drone their fellow American citizens.

And what were their sources? Right, CNN. Imagine 'fact checking' with CNN and Washington Post articles as your sources. Laughable. The whole idea of them 'fact checking' what their userbase posts is ridiculous to begin with.
