This is a dumbed down world now where effing idiots get to decide who is in charge. The consequences of putting unfit people in positions of power you only get away with for so long. Eventually the insanity filters down in to real world consequences. It's a consequence of the retarding of education, the retarding of critical thinking skills, and the rise of social media/biased tv that places these people in our societies in bubbles of conspiracy theory, derangement, debasement, and outright lies. Science and experts are ignored and ridiculed. It's extremely alarming for the future. Carl Sagan in one of his books predicted all this before his death with frightening accuracy. Can't think off the top of my head which one it was.

Theres a lot of debate about what is the best information for covid , there are advisors who will disagree, doesn't make it misinformation, but twitter have decided what they believe on it and everything else is false.

It's a pretty disturbing sign of his knowledge on the subject and it's far from a political attack to remove such idiocy.

If Twitter/Facebook edit what users see that makes them publishers. And thus lose their protection. Think of it like a book store. If the store just sells books they wont be held liable for anything in the books only the publishers will be, But if the book stores start editing the books, they are now publishers and thus liable. Trump is setting out legalisation on this.

Isaac eventually reported his possession of the laptop to the FBI at some point in 2019. The FBI took possession of the device through a federal subpoena, but because Isaac had legal rights as the possessor of the device, he made a hard drive backup of the laptop’s contents. He then took the information from the laptop to Utah Senator Mike Lee and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. Giuliani reported the contents to the New York Post, which led to the recent bombshell report on its contents.

If conservatives bought the company and suddenly started treating refusing to allow the posting of links from the NYT and WaPo, you'd be doing a 180 quick smart. You're not fooling anyone with this pretense that your position is based on your respect for the US Constitution either. Sure we see how little regard you have for it on other threads.
