    What I like about Trump and their supporters is that they always treat their opponents with the utmost respect.
    I'm alright Jack

        Trump supporters wanted to execute the Vice President

        I heard at least 3 different rioters at the Capitol say that they hoped to find Vice President Mike Pence and execute him by hanging him from a Capitol Hill tree as a traitor

          While it's a dangerous president, it's also a dangerous precedent.

          While Twitter et al have created the platform and run it, ergo they make the rules, it's in danger of degenerating into a hard left echo chamber which will become so woke it could collapse in on itself. General leftist behaviour on Twitter was to revert to cancel culture on anyone that didn't toe the line, with the last few years feeling like a race to be the most woke, with stories of lesbians being vilified because they weren't interested in men->women transexuals who were simply identifying as women. I've never been active on Twitter outside of sports tweets and news articles complaining about unfairness on there so wouldn't miss it. The other danger is that it will end up with a conservative platform spinning up and becoming a separate echo chamber, which is equally as concerning. The craziness of it all is that people are losing friends as a result of politics when the reality is that it's an elite-manufactured perception that you actually have any sort of real say in the running of the country.

          The first amendment is as follows:
          "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

          Until a social media platform exists that embodies that, the USA is not going to be a nice place.

            Dangerous precedent was not to ban him years earlier

              Trump went 'ballistic' after being tossed off Twitter - POLITICO

              Hope somebody filmed him and will put it on Twitter!

                Why, because you disagree with him? If you're going to ban people you disagree with, you end up with a bitter echo chamber.
                Go woke, go broke.

                  He incited violence before, and he had big flow of easily verifiable libel that Twitter certainly should have been held responsible for because it was brought to their attention and they chosen to keep his posts “for public interest” - public interest is to prevent officials from making lies, especially if they leverage their official position

                    The US is a democratic country it's up to the US people and the laws they agree upon as to whether Twitter can ban President Trump or not from Twitter.

                    Trump supporters need to get over it. They can whine all they like, they're still losers.

                    If twitter is forced to air Donald Trump's views then Info Wars must also air Nancy Pelosi views.

                      And Fox News

                      Reps can afford to be banned from all “liberal” places - they can’t afford to get different points of views from “Libs” on “conservative” propaganda channels
