They are taking down whole platforms like Parlor (I don't really know what Parlor is and have never visited it, but I know it's anti-American to take it down). I'm not talking about incitement to riot. I believe Biden won, but questioning the election results should absolutely be allowed. Questioning the World Health Organization should absolutely be allowed. Questioning any official story should absolutely be allowed. It's anti-American to not allow it, and it's beside the point that the government itself isn't the one doing the censoring. The mass censorship is having the same effect basically.
Do you support new domestic terrorism laws being put into law like Biden wants? Like the Republicans want? Did you support the anti-American Patriot Act after 9/11? This is the same shit all over again. Your rights are going down the tube.
Um no. Apple is a private business. They are not required by force to put up all apps because that app wants to be on their service. Apple had repeatedly warned Parlor to shape up, and they did not. Apple has the right to refuse service.

Quote:Now if you want a better argument. I have long since hated growing monopolies. Those are anti competitive, and corporate America does have way too much power. But in the the case of Trump this is strictly about inciting violence. Even giant corporations understand that unrest is economically bad for their bottom line. I am not going to pretend any of this is being done by them for noble reasons.But terrorism will affect their bottom line, a civil war also will affect their bottom line.the game changes on the multi billion dollar level. they knew going into this they were going to piss off 75 million people, and did not care. their 'morality' and allegiance to their version of the political truth is far strong than the bottom line derived from a divided country with two different world views. they know if left wing extremism was to take over their profits and power base would be twice anything it could be now.
Quote:Giant corporations and GOP billionaire donors are fleeing from Trump and that party, because they know growing seditious terrorism will affect even them.people leave people in power simply because politically that is what swamp people do.
Quote:I'd certainly be for re-instating the "fairness act" that Reagan destroyed and apply that to all formats, not just tv networks. But while protecting offensive speech should always be protected, calls for violence isn't protected speech, no matter the class.i do not disagree
