Web Censorship and Political Bias

There is a difference between law book smarts, and general intellect.

Intellect has nothing to do with it. He's just performing for his audience.

I believe that Twitter has proven themselves a publisher and should be held to the same liability standards as the media. They can then moderate as they please and freely decide which posts remain.

Right. They're going to go through and approve each tweet before it goes up. Publisher.

Or they'll just remove everything they disagree with and still claim platform protections.

That's an improvement?

Please somebody explain this. I don't have the patience and I'm running out of alcohol.

Trump straight up says what the game is here. He doesn't like the stories that are on social media. That's it. All this Section 230 stuff is just a bunch of poppycock to try to give it some kind of legal cover.

"Taking away your rights." Give me a break.

'Anonymous' anti-Trump official revealed as CNN pundit Miles Taylor, who lied about writing NYT op-ed

Til later when he covered ass to avoid charges.

FB, Twitter, and Instacrap are about to lose their section 320 protections. And they deserve to lose it.

I hope they get the hammer dropped on them

Cruz ripped them apart. Ted turned into a pit bull that wasn't letting up.

He did.... I though he did a masterful job

The rest of us know, and you aren't going to change LG's opinion ... or that of the other resident libs.

I know. Still fun to pretend.
Til next week proves it.

In a daily development we see that Velo absolutely refuses to learn anything about a subject and will repeat whatever comes from the echo chamber.

Cruz has no credibility. He's in the same category as EVERY POLITICIAN. A blow hard who will say anything and try to sound intellectual or sincere, but a complete empty suit and hypocrite.

So, Twitter decided to lock the account of the Customs and Border Patrol Chief today because he was taking about the border wall.

Twisting the tiger's tail a day after Senate hearings isn't smart. Again, I feel Twitter is about to get effed up after next week.

Glenn Greenwald: My Resignation From The Intercept

just came here to post this. I disagree with many of his views but he's always been fearless about chasing a story.
