CNN is trying to force Fox News off air. Twitter deletes people who have opinions different than theirs. Apple is trying to delete a free speech platform. Google already did. Biden and Democrats in charge are cheering it on. Fascism is here and it’s the 'liberal' left.

    neither does repeating leftist propaganda which demonizes Trump and his supporters. But I see it on the news 24/7, and on this site repeated every day, in every political thread, by thousands of brainwashed people regurgitating lies they've been force-fed for years.

      Trump has done quite enough to demonize himself while inciting insurrection and calling for violence. Not that's anything new - Trump has long called for his supporters to be violent towards those he disagrees with, even going so far as to offer to pay their legal fees.

      At some point you might be willing to consider you're the indoctrinated/brainwashed one. You said it yourself, you see everything around you repeat what you believe is false 24/7. Reality is hard. It's easier out here in europe, we've been lucky enough not to suffer too much from the awful american media diet. We've mostly seen this happen to you all from the outside. There's a lot of propaganda in your country. I sympathize with you, truly; it's difficult to tell what's real and what isn't when you've been gaslit for years. It's especially more difficult when you think that accepting reality means giving up your ideas and opinions on eg. personal freedom (it doesn't). But getting out of there is going to be your fight. Saw this thread this morning; if there's hope for that guy, maybe there's hope for you. https://www.reddit.com/r/self/comments/kt9ues/update_my_husband_is_having_a_mental_breakdown/ https://www.reddit.com/r/self/comments/kt9ues/update_my_husb...

        > Reality is hard. It's easier out here in europe, we've been lucky enough not to suffer too much from the awful american media diet. I live in the U.S. and stay away from the media. I recommend it. I used to think it was important to stay abreast of all of the comings and goings, but that was B.S. It's a stressful waste of time for me. I don't really get into sports either. > There's a lot of propaganda in your country. I sympathize with you, truly; it's difficult to tell what's real and what isn't when you've been gaslit for years. What you say is true about it being difficult to tell what is real. But, the only people that I spoken with that know what it's like in America are those that have lived here recently for a year or more, and preferably those that have moved around some. It's a large country, with different cultures; I don't even know them all. A lot of it is annoying (the parts of the country where people act really fake and the parts where people seem nice but are passive aggressive isolating backstabbers), and a lot more of it is honest, loud, quiet, funny, and cool. I sometimes act as if I understand the people of this or that country, because I work with people of different countries each day at work, so I know I act the same way; I don't really know what it's like either.

        At some point you might be willing to consider you're the indoctrinated/brainwashed one. After living in both a conservative state and a liberal coastal area for years, I've realized that every radically different culture probably looks like brainwashing to other radically different cultures. What we might be seeing is what happens when those cultures compete for the same space. Much like living organisms, both cultures/memeplexes produce their versions of antibodies and immunities. Both living memeplexes have developed a sense of "self" vs "defective self"/"harmful other" vs "harmless other", just like an immune system. Both "believe" themselves to be the "true" organism, and that the other is defective. Both have diverged enough that mutual symbiosis is no longer working. Both claim the same space as their own. Both have failed to process the metaphorical signaling molecules of the other. Driven by their respective fitness functions, both are evolving and diverging. Ultimately, the two organisms will have to relearn how to communicate and merge back into a symbiotic whole, establish a clear boundary between the two, or failing those, each will continue to seek to destroy the other until perhaps nothing is left of either.

  It's probably worth remembering that your president was the first one to choose to use Twitter as his primary medium of communication with citizens, rather than the long established tradition of white house communications which can be released via whitehouse.gov. As with pretty much every other bit of idiocy you can find related to trump, he has brought this on himself. It's pretty crazy it even took this long.

Anyone can claim to support BLM Not everyone can be Donald Trump BLM as a movement includes people who did nothing wrong It appears from news reports, governor statements, etc., Trump interfered in LEO efforts, states efforts, to manage the capital rampage during legal proceedings. Find the BLM supporters individually involved in violence and ban them from Twitter

Here's a better example. Spike Lee was _never_ banned, even though he sent an angry mob to an innocent person's house where people who happened to share a name with someone in the news lived.
