Censorship was never supposed to happen in America, but the left is using big-tech to silence conservative voices. Massive corporations like Facebook and Twitter are working to keep their echo chambers full of liberal propaganda.
It started with Alex Jones, from Infowars, when social media and tech giants coordinated efforts to de-platform his organization. It wasn’t a single instance of censorship by one corporation.
Jones was systematically taken off every major social media service in a coordinated effort throughout Silicon Valley. Companies independent of each other were involved in taking his content down. Showing just how powerful big tech can be.
Alex Jones was the trial-balloon for even bigger efforts to silence conservatives.
The progressive censorship has now snowballed into affecting conservative social media influencers to the average citizen supporting Trump through tweets.
The mainstream media even tried to soften the blow. Louis Farrakhan was censored by Facebook, and he was labeled as being “far-right.”
Anybody with a brain can tell you that Farrakhan is a vile racist that supports Democrats. If anything, he is farther left than even the most “far-left.”

So if Comey and his Rats can claim that paying off a blackmailing bitch is a “payment in kind” against federal election law, isn’t a banning by a private software company a similar payment to Trump’s opponents?
After all, if we’re going to make elastic laws, let’s go for it.

We've been getting a three-year lesson in how not to accept the results of an election.
We'll have to use other tools when we "Resist", however...
Around 160 official US Govt agencies have Twitter accounts through early 2014. There are probably many more.... I have not found a comparable list of Facebook accounts, but it has to be enormous.
Why would the US Government use a company that openly fights free speech? They need to be de-legitimized by an executive order forbidding ANY US Gov Facebook or Twitter pages.
FYI——TRUMPS’S SOCIAL MEDIA HUD COMPLAINT NOW IN MOTION SAYS: Facebook mines extensive user data and classifies its users based on protected characteristics. Facebook’s ad targeting tools then invite advertisers to express unlawful preferences by suggesting discriminatory options. Among those options are physical disabilities, parents with children and even religious practices — advertisers are allowed to show their ads only to people Facebook deems interested in “Jesus” or the “Christian Church,” for example. Those practices could violate the Civil Rights Act, HUD said in the complaint, dated August 13.
NEEDED NOW: Trump Ex/Order.....”no govt agency shall have an account on social media if that company does not allow free speech.”
Ping.
Oh, wait, I'm on the conservative side of things.
Never mind. It'll never fly.

“We’ll have to use other tools when we “Resist”, however...”
Yeah. They know that, which is why they spend a lotta time trying to confiscate those tools.
Bolsheviks and Nazis, all of them.
