My wife and kids are reading 1984 now. Mandatory reading. Along with Alas Babylon and Atlas Shrugged.

People will be amazed at how conservative and red pilled current teens are. My niece lives in Illinois in a very blue area. Trump won their junior high election like 375 to 11. Many parents were pissed and accused the school of promoting a conservative agenda. Little bitches.

That’s so awesome. Progressives are inadvertently making libertarian principles the new rock and roll. Ask some of those bands back in the 70’s what happened when the church lady crowd tried to censor them.

You can’t drstroy ideas and this is just gonna make the right even more popular.

The market will sort it out


The internet in 2018 is not a free market, not at all.

If Google, Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon all decide to blackball you from their products and services, you're completely dead in the water.

These 4 companies are essentially gatekeepers to the entire internet for almost all Americans.

Technically speaking, it IS a form of censorship, don't you agree? But it IS a private organization with right to determine rules to hold people by.


Disagree.

When you agree to use someone else's platform. You have to follow the rules they set down or be removed.

Alex got sent to the showers because he kept ignoring the rules of the game.

It would be censorship if he had gotten taken off a platform not owned by private business.

Twitter and leftists in general are vermin. They look for any excuse to muzzle opposition because their ideas can stand no scrutiny.

Either it's "racism" or "homophobia" or "sexism" or now everything they don't like is "Russians".

There is nothing in the definition of censorship that says it needs to be done by the Gov't.

And nobody here is saying this is Gov't censorship.

But by definition this is indeed censorship. What don't you understand about that?

So, the fact that Chicken prevents some posters from spelling out the C or N words, isn't that really just another form of censorship? Private site and all. I mean, they are just words. They cun't hurt you.
