TimmySmith 2,782 Posted September 8, 2022 Turns out the WH is in direct communication with the social media outlets. And they do what they are told. Once again, they don't even hide it. Don't have to. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 13,028 Posted September 8, 2022 Disney was going to buy Twitter in 2016 until they did their research and found out how FOS Twitter was about their numbers.

It’s who you accept it form that matters. If reasonable people are going to censor things like threats of violence or over the top hate speech that’s good censorship. If blue haired morons are the ones deciding then you can count me out. Enjoy being told what you’re allowed to read by those people. They think you’re too stupid to decide for yourself.
