Then you weren't paying attention. You said anything that disagreed with the Democrat elite - without swear words or insults - you were banned. meanwhile Twitter allowed Kiddie Pro, the Ayatollah of Iran (lots of hate speech from him) and violent posts by ANTIFA to go unfettered. From the left's perspective - ANYTHING they disagree with is quickly colored as "hate speech" or "fascist". For fascism, the needed to look in the shaving mirror.
The predictable end result of TV and social media centered societies. As painful as it would be, we might need another Carrington event to survive
Town hall in what sense? I pick the speaker I want to listen to and blame the other side. It’s a statement agree/disagree thing. I hardly see anyone changing their minds on the basis of twitter posts, hence an echo chamber. And for extremists on both ends it seems.
If you'd actually looked into it, you'd know it was a private citizen asking a private company to remove another private citizen's stolen nude photographs from their platform.
The fact you can read/hear someone with whom you disagree and then post your disagreement is the definition of a town hall. ALL voices are heard. Twitter was an oppressive echo chamber that altered political events and the dissemination of information because most young people got their news from Twitter (as sad as that is). So it is like a public utility and all voices should be heard.
This is of course not true and never was. Who do you think you're fooling?
I can find disagreeable content all over the internet and state my own opinion on plenty places. I just don’t believe that the typical user goes there for an education on an opposing viewpoint but rather to grow one’s own confirmation bias. Twitter users refer to this as their bubble for a reason.
Well just because that is there desire to hear you own stuff that is on them that does not mean Twitter has to settle for being an echo chamber.
Disable AirDrop, at the request of the Chinese government. The same Chinese government that can control their manufacturing process and has a significant influence on sales in the area. Again that’s money issue. The Twitter thing is also about money. Tim doesn’t want to seem like his company supports someone that’s offensive to a percentage of the population. This might influence their purchase of Apple products. He’s also careful not to seem like he wants to offend people who support Musk, which could also influence the percentage of the population to purchase or not purchase his products.
The fact that both versions were used in China means that the original poster with John was not banned but instead changed by Disney because they thought it would attract more moviegoers in that particular market. It actually happens more often than you’d think in Eastern Asian markets.
Ronald Reagan said:
Define "elite". I've met a lot of people in a lifetime and I've never met one I considered elite.
Since Musk was selling "verified" status on twitter for $8, God only knows what he would do to the integrity of the voting laws. Maybe we could buy votes, too. But yeah...keep supporting the lunatics. Good idea.
Pretty much. NPR in the car sometimes. Throw in Fivethirtyeight during election season. The Hill and Politico are both quite objective compared to most news sources and they both produce more content than I can read in a day anyway. Not really a need for much else. It seems like you’re just upset that you don’t get to call me a hypocrite for my criticism of Fox because you probably assumed I get all my news from MSNBC and Huffington Post.
