> like "fight" out of context Yet the people who are most angry about calling for a "fight" are the same ones that defend much worse from the likes of Maxine Waters... The platform evaluating rules for Trump while allowing worse from others - in power or out - is the problem. Examples exist everywhere of much MUCH worse than Trumps non-calls for violence... yet he's the only one to get banned and have a Crusade/Jihad held against him? Says more about the hypocrites that hold double standards than it does about Trump - who's the same bombastic blowhard he's always been.

There are just so many instances of left-leaning politicians inciting, encouraging, or supporting criminality, that there's no defense for the one-sided enforcement of moderation by Facebook, Twitter, Google, Amazon, and the rest of them. I have a list below of articles I dug up from just two minutes of web searches. There are substantially more instances than just these as well, but none of these people are banned, nor is their content censored. We see the same one-sided enforcement with fact-checking, which has been slowly degrading into partisanship as well. These days I often see fact checks with the label "missing context", that aren't really a "fact check" but cast doubt on a claim typically from a moderate or right-leaning voice. ----- All the times Democrats used the word "fight": https://nypost.com/2021/02/12/trump-team-plays-videos-of-democrats-repeated-fight-vows/ https://nypost.com/2021/02/12/trump-team-plays-videos-of-dem...

Gee, considering how many times you've tried to play your "Actually, the real villain is Maxine Waters!" card in this discussion, maybe you should enlighten us as to what contextual calls for actual violence she made. I, for one, would just love to see your sources.
