Twitter partially suspends Donald Trump Jr. for sharing hydroxychloroquine video
Washington Examiner ^ | July 28, 2020 | Katherine Doyle,

Social media giant Twitter suspended the account of Donald Trump Jr. after he shared a video of doctors talking about the controversial anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine.

A message from the company said that some features of Trump Jr.'s account were "temporarily limited" after he violated the company's rules — specifically, a policy on "spreading misleading and potentially harmful misinformation" related to the coronavirus.

The drug became a flashpoint in the administration's coronavirus response after President Trump began touting it as a possible cure. Trump said he took the drug after his personal valet caught the virus. White House trade and manufacturing adviser Peter Navarro has also called for the drug to be used.

So Twitter knows more than the front line doctors who actually treat patients with HCQ?

Right. It’s also worth noting that the First Amendment (free speech) does not apply here. The 1A only protects you against government censorship, not private company censorship.

So Twitter can censor folks all day long. That’s why a conservative version of Twitter is needed. Either that or break them up using anti-monopoly laws.

I wonder where Twitter and You tube got their medical degrees?
They accuse posters of spreading dangerous misinformation, but they are censoring the truth witch is even more dangerous.

“...The more twit, tube and fake try to block the truth the less believable they become...”

Yep. What really needs to happen is they’re legal protections need to be revoked for this. It’s way past time.

Parler is free speech and it is a nice platform. I dont twitter so I am not as familiar with the format but its a good space.

They are actually the gatekeeper of propaganda.

Their business. Their rules. Not even the POTUS is immune. Now, if POTUS had been a RAT liberal, Twitter would say they didn’t have the right to censure.

These platforms are political advocacy and public manipulation tools. No different from the press and pretty much anybody with power. They abhor freedom.

Tea Party Patriots seem to still have all three videos up https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBDFIhJatqK77qLyA0r-yVg

The sound is barely audible on one. The video is pixelated on another. I think that’s youtube’s doing.

All the wrong people are against using HCQ, so it must be an effective treatment. Further proof that the news surrounding this "virus" is mostly BS.
