So I am facing this today with Fakebook. A 12 hour suspension immediately after commenting on a post of one of my friends. My post was about the democrat Governor in Michigan and health director dictating about how many people can gather over Thanksgiving inside and outside. I stated something to the effect of, The communist democrat party, telling you what you can and cannot do, this is your future if you vote for Joe and the hoe. I got an immediate 12 hour suspension from posting or liking anything. This is one a post from one of my friends who posted the guidelines in Michigan and he is critical of it. He’s a devout Trump supporter!

“Big Tech acts like sovereign nations, shutting down speech if it doesn’t approve.”

I wouldn’t say they are acting like sovereign nations - they serve the governments of sovereign nations.

Big Tech, the media, Hollywood, sports, our universities and the Democratic Party are all in for the coming marxist revolution.

“Big Tech, the media, Hollywood, sports, our universities and the Democratic Party are all in for the coming marxist revolution.”

Yes, examine the specific playas. Include Bill Gates & George Soros...two of the most EVIL individuals in the world at this time in history. They just happen to be Americans. Of course there’s Zuckerberg, Dorsey and scores of others just in America. We don’t even have to look at foreign enemies right now. Deal with domestics. The task at hand in a couple of days...Tuesday November 3, 2020.

Ready - AIM - VOTE

Joe Biden & Kamala Harris...HVT of the moment. Buildings not destroyed, shots not fired to take out these EVIL. Vote. Just do it.

Kinda like the newspaper industrialists and textile moguls of the late 19th early 20th century lobying the government to make certain plants illegal to grow or manufacture product made from them becasue it produced a better product than they could and lasted virtually forever?

My point was that Big Tech isn’t determining which speech is approved; they are receiving their marching orders from political leaders.
