Chief Twit

Part 5 just dropped.
They banned Trump under pressure from activist employees even though they themselves admit he didn't violate the rules.

yeah....though Twitter had a habit of freezing the accounts of those who were more right wing.......the left wing buttercups don't like views that melt their snow flakes.

[ZRX61]

Personally I think there's only one thing wrong with Twitter....people can access it. Sorry, two things...others, who should know better, think that 'trending on Twitter' = 'the people have spoken' and one thing it ain't is a ballot box. A soap box, yes.

The only thing I've come across that "trends on Twitter" is the weekly topic that Jimmy Fallon throws out there which is usually hilarious & often somewhat disturbing. & that airs on this show so no need to actually follow it on Twitter

Things like that happening reminds some of us that these 'fact checkers' came out to censor others, simply because the truth started to come out......

Zuckerberg admitted under oath that FB fact checkers were nothing more than opinion censors.

Well, if something isn’t a fact then it is just an opinion isn’t it?

He did incite an insurrection and used Twitter to do it, of course they were going to ban him.

That's a grey area. Someone's opinion might be that covid vaccinations work while the facts are it saved X people but killed Y in the study.
Whether the study was run correctly is also a matter of opinion.

I'm not sure I'd be making poor Mr Trump into a Twitter martyr as a surefire way of normalising the platform. I'm sure he's served his time though, maybe let him back in on parole? Make his Twitter avatar wear an orange jumpsuit?

It's a matter of law.

Trump will be back, then the left wing butter cups full of hate and resent over someone with more money than they have will explode in a vitriolic hate consumed rage.

His account was re-activated a little while back, he's chosen not to rejoin as he's propping up his latest failed venture.

It's almost as if they don't want to make America great again.

Well many people don't, they voted out someone who boosted the economy and voted someone in who's since crashed it.....

Ah, I didn't realise the law specified the size of a perfect test group.
Whether the law is correct and suitable is also a matter of opinion.

Ah, I didn't realise the law specified the size of a perfect test group.

And I didn't realise you were a scientist qualified in the field.
If you are, crack on, persuade us.

What qualifications would I need to be allowed an opinion?

FWIW I think Trump and Musk are a pair of proper tubes, but I like that they took on the political elite and their power bases, the US political elite monsters crush normal people (like Clintons rape accusers) so it took a pair of leviathans like Trump/Musk to get anywhere.

Leviathans? Big, evil, pretty dim and come to a fitting end?

In the Talmud Baba Bathra 75 it is told that the Leviathan will be slain and its flesh served as a feast to the righteous in the Time to Come and its skin used to cover the tent where the banquet will take place. Those who do not deserve to consume its flesh beneath the tent may receive various vestments of the Leviathan varying from coverings (for the somewhat deserving) to amulets (for the least deserving).

(Hoping for lunch but will settle for a coat or an amulet ).

None. But then you don't need any to read my palm either.
You going to qualify your opinion or is that it?

I don't need to qualify it, I just need to be allowed to express it the same way people with different opinions can.
Other people are free to ignore me as they wish.
