"fighting" is often used in a political context, we have people on both sides of congress saying it publicly as recently as 2020. This is constitutionally-protected political speech. Your case would be much stronger had Trump not

Claiming 75 million people are terrorists without evidence is a bold move.

I'd like to see the evidence of how violent actions by pro-DNC parties like BLM/antifa which occurred after these words are any less tied to them than the actions that happened after Trump's words. For empirical data's s

If they are lies then why can't they be refuted instead of suppressed?

> Parler was a hate site, What evidence do you base this on? Do you have evidence quantifying how Parler users are more hateful than Twitter or Facebook?

Yes, although there was good reason to change the way airports are policed the way they are now.

I'm a native-born American citizen and we used the phrase figuratively in my household as I was growing up. Just saying.

If you're saying they don't have a good reason, but you dont like the guy so you're glad it happened to him... don't you see how this is a problematic precedent? If trump supporters were in the majority would it be ok fo

It seems cowardly to me to use force to shut people down. But it's a free country and they own their platform, so i think it should be allowed. I just think it will allow for more competition for Twitter.

It seems to me people are just itching for a reason to justify doing what they want. Lots of people hate trump even in this thread and are happy with censoring of people they dont like, just because they dont like them. It's rather chi

They'll start with whoever they hate most and work their way on down. This is crazy.

You may agree with this new power now when its used on Trump, but you might not agree with it in the future. By then it will have been too late.

For example? Was it his tweets yesterday saying to comply with the police and leave the Capitol? can we be a bit more substantive?
437.
by dionian 6y ago

For example, saying we should march on congress and 'cheer on' congress? The problem is you will brand anything you dont like as intolerant or hate, and might makes right!

Fox (however detestable you may find it) was created as an alternative to the corporate media hegemony on thought, I fear you have it backwards.

It's only applicable if someone did yell "Fire!" in a crowded theater (and there wasn't a fire). The worst Trump did here was say that people should march on Capitol Hill and "cheer on" congresspeople. I guess

Censoring speech is just going to alienate a huge section of the country rather than provide transparency and a common dialogue We aren't - well, I used to say we weren't - like Communist China, because our ideas could compete in
