    It’s not about silencing opposition, it’s about integrity and honesty. You right wing types are being brainwashed and filled with poison.

    These right wing leaders - Jones, Hannity, Limbaugh, Levin, Carlson, et al. - push narratives in a journalism format without any editorial standards. They are pushing a cult of personality and resentment.

    There’s a whole right wing misinformation industry around denying science, there’s reckless gun propaganda and now they are fermenting a revolt against the rule of law and the justice system.

    It’s not an excommunication, it’s about having minimal standards. You guys wade in filth and garbage politics. All of the social media platforms have a responsibility to clean it up.

    Donald Trump holds the office of the presidency but the American people own that office. No American can be denied access. If Trump wants to block users then he should resign.

    If the censorship was applied evenly, it would be something. I'd still not support it because I don't support censorship. But it's not even applied evenly, so there's clear bias.

  5. Strange that FB, for example, keeps up Louis Farrakhan but bans Alex Jones. Seems like so long as you play with the Leftist narrative, you're okay.

    What has Farrakhan done lately or at all on Youtube or FB to be banned?

    Are you against the censorship of people who intentionally obfuscate and create misleading information?

    What about Russian troll bots?

    No, that's why I am asking, what has he done on YT/FB etc for him to be banned and why hasn't anyone complained yet?

  10. He's regularly preached that Whites are all evil. He's preached that Jews are evil. He's preached that Black people should not allow their children to make friends with Whites or Jews. Sound like hate speech to you? For comparison, what has Alex Jones ever said that was even remotely similar to the hate from Farrakhans mouth?
