Twitter's Censorship of the New York Post Is Un-American

[Buckeye McFrog]

Very telling that every newspaper in America is not rushing to the Post’s side to defend them.

[Little Ray]

Dunno ‘bout unAmerican, but unlawful, yes.
This censorship is an in-kind contribution to the Biden campaign on the order of tens or even hundreds of millions dollars. Ditto for Facebook.
Why isn’t the Federal Election Commission on this?

[rktman]

Twitter is UN-American. Or maybe anti-American? At least from a conservative view point.

Big Tech is trans-national. It is not “American.”

[butlerweave]

The Twitter/Facebook Virus is in almost everything

[freedomjusticeruleoflaw]

Good luck competing with Big Tech AFTER you lose this election. There will be no second chances.

[Grampa Dave]

The Dem’s elites, like these censors hate a Free America.

They want to control us 24/7 and force us to never vote for a real American.

[Grampa Dave]

How about “Interfering with a national election.”?

[Buckeye McFrog]

Big Tech actually has it’s roots in helping the CCP to control all information inside of China.

[Little Ray]

I am not sure that is a crime, unless it is done by a Federal employee.
But there IS a cap on contributions to a campaign, I think.

[RedStateRocker]

Freedom of the press is limited to those who own one. Whiner (the author, not the poster).

[Terry L Smith]

The New York Post has been around longer than that pencil-necked pseudo-geek that owns Twitter has been breathing air.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Why isn’t the Federal Election Commission on this?

They'll get around to it sometime around July, 2025.

[SMARTY]

Twitter enjoys the guarantees of free speech, like all people and organizations in the US.

So what puts Twitter in the position to DENY free speech to others?

[rktman]

THEY are superior to us apparently. 😂🙌📴

[rktman]

And google. It IS in everything.

[RedStateRocker]

They are privately owned.

They, FB, the NYT, and Free Republic owe nobody a single damned photon that the owner doesn’t wish to let them use. Freedom of the press is limited to those who own one.

If I had a social media company and some commie jerkoff tried to tell me that denying them use of my platform was an attack on ‘Freedom of Speech” I’d laugh my butt off at them before telling them to F-O and talk to my lawyer. It wouldn’t- and shouldn’t- matter if I had 4 users or 4 billion.

[SMARTY]

Yet people sue privately owned clubs when they can’t get membership? Hmmmmm

[maxwellsmart_agent]

Twitter will take a hit for this censorship!
