A baker has to bake a gay cake, but Twitter can
refuse service to someone for being conservative.

That is allowing one public enterprise to discriminate
while refusing to let another public enterprise do the same.

We’re prisoners shouting out through the bars
of our cells, “I’m free! I’m free!”

Same with this YouTube site. He had given a 6.8 earthquake warning to CA for this week. (His prediction.)

2/21/2018 — ALERT : Dutchsinse channel CENSORED + DEMONITIZED fully — NO WARNING GIVEN

How can YouTube legally censor sites that have signed a yearly contract?

Slightly off topic but perhaps related: Where is Lou Dobbs?

Those sources need to move to another platform ASAP.

Everyone who berates the Robinsons for not migrating to a cloud based system such as Amazon’s must see this as the answer. If you don’t own and run your own servers, you can count on the encroaching censorship by left or right owners of internet systems to take you down.

Now I get it, Jim and John.

I don’t tweet. But why doesn’t someone start a new service? I don’t think the barriers to entry are that high.

Someone already did. It's called "Gab."

It’s their site, they can do as they want.

Don’t like their politics?

DON’T USE THEM......................

The Jews didn't like the German Nazi's politics, but not supporting them wasn't an effective solution.

We cannot ignore propaganda agents against us. They will encourage people to attack and destroy us if we let them get away with it.

We need to make them serve everyone who sits at their lunch counter.

All conservatives except Trump should get off Twitter.

What value is that constitutional guarantee when everyone is communicating on a system that is extra-constitutional?

And this is it in a nutshell. I used to think people could operate their own property in whatever manner they see fit, but now that I have seen the monopoly of control on freedom of speech, I now realize that the right to freedom of speech much be protected even when someone else owns the equipment through which the speech is being communicated.

A system in which one side can speak to the public, and the other side is frozen out, contradicts the very purpose of enfranchising freedom of speech as a necessary protection for the Republic.

again, please everyone do not be stupid to give Twitter your phone number (and thus ability to identify you as an individual) for their enemies’ list

You think they don't already have that information?

Did you by any chance "like" a Trump tweet?

Maybe that's who Soros' sonderkommandos are going after first?

I never understood why conservatives had any interest in Facebook and Twitter as political tools. These are owned by someone else who has full control over the content.

You haven't thought this through. Those methods of communication are going to get used to reach the public. They will affect elections, and the public will make bad decisions because they won't be able to hear the opposition side of the discussion.

For our system of governance to work, we cannot allow monopolies to exist in the communications systems. Already the left owns and controls virtually all means of communications. Communications is necessary to the function of this Republic, and controlled communications is a threat to it.

It doesn't matter who owns the communications infrastructure. Our system of government cannot survive one party control of communications.
