Trump permanently banned from Twitter

Post Reply New Topic

Trump got ban from Facebook too, but at least for two weeks.

Yeah, but it will recover, eventually.
There are a lot of twits out there.

twitter is a private company and can ban anyone they want, so I have heard.
It is not part of the American constitution if I can put it that way.

In addition to that, they *also* want to piss trump and other capitalists off.
I'm sure of that.
Entities aren't one dimensional.

You don't know much about the share market and big business, do you. [man hug]
Remember the Royal Commission into the corruption of the Banking and the Superannuation industries, here in Australia?

GMH and the "It is cheaper to pay out the families of victims of faulty gas tanks, causing people to be burned allive, than to redesign the fault in the vehicle.

Dupont...

The Tobacco industry...
The Sugar industry...
Etcetera...

Corruption is the name of the game, in big business.

This is what turned me against the Liberal (Conservative) Party, here in Australia, to become a moderate independent.

Well, judging by the top trending hastag at present, it seems there are still people who want him remembered there...

It's amazing what people can post that relates to "#PelosiLovesTrump"...

It's disgusting censorship, regardless of your opinion toward Trump (or anyone else).

To think that anyone, especially a public figure, should be silenced on a whim is very troubling.

Censorship of Donald Trump ... so effing what?

I think we have already heard more than enough from him, anyway.

He also lost his top donor:

Like all WP members Trump posted subject to certain site rules and like WP, an egregious transgression of those rules will result in a ban. There is no "whim" involved.

That he was allowed to post what he did, and for so long, gaining little more than a Twitter label pointing out that what he posted was disputed (an oh-so-polite version of "he's lying, as usual"), is something of a miracle of permissiveness in itself, almost like Twitter was hanging on to the bitter end of letting him post because after all, he is the president.

But this time he went too far. Lives were lost and the political establishment was attacked in the most egregious and violent manner imaginable as a result of his pushing, and on the back of the most brazen of lies about the election - which he also pushed, relentlessly.

That's why he was banned.

Trump was not censored for expressing unpopular opinions; he was banned for being a dangerous jerk.

Add the word dangerous before jerk and you have a pretty good assessment of him. Inciting a deadly riot is more than just being a jerk.

Done.

These are the same opinions as shared by mainstream media . If you control mainstream media you control average opinion and and it spread into the masses . Sometimes there are more. Than one angle to view things from
Might beware the things that the media doesn’t say ...According to the media Mr Trump has never been thier
Darling boy , in fact in the beginning Trump tried to warn people about the media .
And so perhaps those same factors are at play still ? The media drove the young people to vote , based on Black Lives Matter . And associated it with removal of Trump . Of which they have alluded that Trump was anti black life’s matter.
Which there are to date no film clips of him saying that . That I have seen.

You can weight it:

Mainstream media, less-mainstream media, international observers, science, lawyers...
against
Someone Who Claims They All Lie.

I'm part of a few womens domestic violence groups in the UK where you actually go to the meetings in person and provide food and support etc, I go to help my friends as they made these groups to help extremely vulnerable women as charity so we're all quite experienced with recognizing the signs. (Obviously closed now due to corona but we have moved online for now).

We have a few certified psychologists and community mental health nurses who help out with the group, literal professionals and they all say Trump shows all signs of being an extroverted malignant narcissist (narcissistic personality disorder). We literally raise awareness constantly for people like this bastard.

The only way to disarm a narcissist and stop them is to go no contact, which is exactly what Twitter has done. They don't want that absolute condescending, racist, manipulative loon on their platform and I wholeheartedly agree with them in their choice.

Since everything is about major money and corruption though nowadays I'm sure they will unban him if offered enough money. It's just sad that this is how the world works now though, narcs at every turn and shady s**t to make them get ahead of the game, manipulation tactics to naive majorities etc.

*sigh*

We have Boris Johnson as well who is the home bargains version of Trump, so that doesn't help things.
