| Well, guys, this is some literally like Soviet level suppression. | |
| You can't even make this crap up anymore. | |
| Sorry, I'm a little bit sweaty. | |
| Florida this time of year is nice. | |
| It's a welcome change from the People's Republic of New York speaking of Soviet era levels of suppression, oppression, taxation and outright stupidity. | |
| But Twitter We're good to go. | |
| All they do is put what he put out, I guess, on a press release and put them out into the ether on Twitter. | |
| I don't even think they're actually his accounts. | |
| They're not to my knowledge. | |
| I don't think he cares. | |
| But people who were taking and copying a statement from a president of the United States and putting it out on Twitter, informing others on that platform, what he was saying... | |
| Got not just the post taken down, but the actual accounts suspended. | |
| Check it out. It's absolutely insane. | |
| Okay? I mean, these guys would make Mao, Lenin, Stalin, they would make them proud with this level of suppression. | |
| So if you're pretending that we still live in an era of free speech where information is able to be out there, You're wrong, folks. | |
| And let's not talk, oh, they're private companies, they can do whatever they want. | |
| No, no, no. Guys, you can't get protections from the government, because this is where people get lost in this whole mix, right? | |
| You can't get all sorts of liability protections from the government, all sorts of safety valves, all this, that, and the other, and then act as a publisher, deciding what you're... | |
| Subscribers, what your followers, what your viewers want. | |
| It doesn't work that way, okay? | |
| However you want to call the people on a Twitter platform. | |
| You can't have the best of both worlds. | |
| Now, if they were truly just a private company with none of those benefits and they opened up the floodgates for the liability for some of the crap that you see out there... | |
| By all means, censor away. | |
| But that's not what we have. | |
| And so the whole private company argument just doesn't fly. | |
| It doesn't make any sense. | |
| It doesn't actually work. | |
| So remember that when you're talking about what's going on in American discourse today. | |
| A former president of the United States, if he puts out a press release, other people can't even... | |
| Literally push out that same release. | |
| This isn't a kafifi tweet at 4am. | |
| This is a press release from the desk of the 45th President of the United States. | |
| And Twitter deems that, so sensitive and so possibly inflammatory, without actually looking at the content or anything that it's in there, That they suspended the accounts of people who are just putting factual and accurate information out into the ether for other people to make up their own mind. | |
| Remember that, folks. It's gonna get worse, and it's gonna get really scary unless we actually do something about this crap. |
