    Ask Biden and his weaponized FBI. They clearly know how.

    Orange Stain!

    ORANGE STAIN!

    it's a broken record of absolutely mental behavior.

    Go scream at the sky more. It will prevent you from having to face the reality that Biden and Democrats are absolutley corrupt as hell and will **** all over our rights.

    Foreign countries should not be able to influence our elections. Recently I heard some are trying to, countries like Iran, China and N Korea. Any thoughts on who they'd like to see in the Oval Office next year?

    Trump is a much bigger liar than Biden. The only way you'd believe otherwise is if you're really deep into conservative propaganda... which yeah, a lot of people are. People talk about the bias of the liberal media, but they are far less willing to lie and mislead than conservative propaganda. And conservatives generally just give Trump a pass when he lies and call it truthful hyperbole.

    I get tired of the relentless and childish name calling by some folks. There's are times when I question their maturity level.

    They're not. They don't. I don't tend to use the name-calling even of Trump, but I can understand not being able to hold back expressions of disgust. It is quite sad what the republican party, and politics in general, has devolved to. Though conservatives were always wrong on policy.

    "The FBI paid Twitter millions of dollars to cover the costs of processing the agency's requests. "I am happy to report we have collected $3,415,323 since October 2019!" wrote someone with Twitter's Safety, Content, & Law Enforcement (SCALE) team in a February 2021 email, according to internal messages reported by journalist Michael Shellenberger.

    Efforts continued to influence Twitter's Yoel Roth. In Sept 2020, Roth participated in an Aspen Institute “tabletop exercise” on a potential "Hack-and-Dump" operation relating to Hunter Biden The goal was to shape how the media covered it — and how social media carried it..

    How many of them have been successfully sued for almost a billion dollars for lying?

    Oh, just Fox? Carry on

    Oh yes, misinformation. Can't have any of that so we will let these people determine what it is. I always thought I was able to decide for myself.

    In '16 it was the poor candidates that gave Trump the win. Covid and the distorted process with those juicy mail in ballots gave Biden the win.

    Do you know what you and your "funny feelings" amount to?

    Nothing

    You don't like it when the lies put out by the Trump supporters get called out.

    It was bad enough when I'd post a joke on Facebook and they'd put a fact check message on it... the joke... but now stuff I post on Facebook disappears. Youtube is also limiting posts and erasing stuff I post there as well in comment sections. Scary.
    I do go to Rumble and Bitchute often. Don't really get "Minds" yet but that is supposed to be a Facebook alternative. I don't think any of my friends and family really use it yet either. I do follow Tucker on X and am glad to see him there.

    What is your position on the govt having the power to suppress speech?

    Keep in mind that you don't realistically have the capability to determine whether I am posting this from Russia or the US... and the govt is not known for its honesty.

    There are bellweathers that are sure markers that government is taking control and the citizens are about to be ****ed.

    Controling speech is a huge one.

    If America's enemies will interfer in an American election, for one candidate over another or to sew division, it needs to be countered acted especially on social media and especially when tye viewer or audience is unaware that it's propaganda.

    Personally, Russian or not, I don't follow what you post because I have no idea as to the native or not, origins

    And if the govt just labels all opposition as 'foreign enemy'? Would that be acceptable? ...and would you ever know if they did that to American's speech as an excuse to suppress it?

    The government makes their case to the social media companies, the media companies have final say. If they are foreigners (masquerading as Americans) with an agenda, they can **** off.

    And if they're Americans that get labelled as 'foreign' by the algorythm for, say, opposing weapons for Ukraine, or Israel? They can **** off too? Cuz THAT IS WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN.

    Social media isn't tracking IP's through VPNs to figure out who is where. They're just applying predictive algorythms to identify keywords and phrases that the programmers preset as 'likely disinfo'. Which makes the speech subject to their political bias. So if the programmers favor Israel, for example... well you can guess what keywords and phrases will be tagged 'foreign propaganda' and suppressed by the algorythm. And if the algorythm is programmed with input from the govt... well you can see where I'm going with this, right?

    And there is only ONE appropriate way for the Government to do so. Providing evidence TOO The People on a public forum. NOT just making claims. NOT talking to the media behind closed doors to get stuff censored.

    The government has exactly zero right to make deals with big tech seeking to retain their strangle hold over the information highway and the nations advertising budget.
    I guess most people will feel better knowing life is a bowl of cherries. Big tech certainly will.
