117th United States Congress: Insurrection 2021

He already did announce this

He's said he wanted to start up some kind of TV channel but I guess he would probably just do it all and have a TV/VOD/streaming/social network and cover all the bases. Maybe an OnlyFascFans.

I think it's pretty obvious what happens next at this point. Trump will announce that he's going to create his own website/social network/app to completely control the message his people see and directly gain their donations easier than ever.

I work in banking and holy shit the number of disputes for recurring Trump donation charges is insane. That's been a hot ticket every day for like the past 18 months or so, people always upset they gave him $25 once and net time they checked their account, they've given him $25 a month for a year. All in the fine print, they just never read it.

implying they can read

People should be able to say whatever the hell they want on a public forum. For a generation so concerned about discrimination it’s incredible to me that based on your political orientation you can be totally silenced.

Who the fuck is this autobot?

You aren't free from consequence you fucking tool.

[Ayn]

At one point, my LS leader had my ringtone as “who the fuck is this autobot?”

I’m so happy someone other than me remembers the Rude Awakening of Optimus Prime.

I get that, but why should Twitter get to decide that? I get it’s a private company, but it’s more than that. It’s a megaphone for the most powerful people on the planet. There should be much more oversight to ensure our rights as Americans don’t get watered down over the years.

As a private company, they get to decide if they are the ones that are going to be that megaphone. If Twitter was gov't owned, then I could see this as an issue.

As for Pres. megaphone we have PUBLIC PRESS CONFERENCES FOR HIM TO SPEAK AT in which we can find 100% unedited versions of all of them.

He didn't need twitter, he just wanted it.

[Tymon]

I would say less that he wanted it and more that he always had it.

Trump was probably in the top 5 oldest Twitter celebrities. The dude had been shitposting on there since the old days.

Also, how many hearings have there been the past few years for Congress to criticize and blame social media companies for everything that has been posted on their platforms.

[Rhyis.]

imagine your thought process is so entitled you believe the government should intervene on ones inability to tweet

[Xno Kappa]

Maybe Twitter is a Christian bakery and trump is just trying to buy a gay cake?

Sounds pretty socialist to think that government should have the right to control private company property, even if that business is a platform, just because that company is large, successful, and influential.

Regardless of political leanings, banning free speech is a dangerous direction to travel.

AWS can host whatever they want to host. No ones banning free speech.

WOW im behind, thanks slowpoke.

[Salodin]

Guys please you're bullying the guy with your circle jerk

That's why no one new comes around these parts

So, it's not a public forum because its a platform by a private company. Keep your argument straight.

[kuronosan]

Private companies should be free to conduct business as they see fit unless the business inconveniences me then they need to conform.

[Day]

So do they have to bake the cake or not
