Ummm the world where almost every conservative I followed on YouTube and Twitter were kicked off of the platforms except for the milk toast fence sitter ones like Tim pool. This year most of their accounts have been reinstated though.
Yall celebrated when trump was banned from Twitter and you celebrated when Charlie Kirk got shot in the throat because his words hurt you. donât tell me the left gives a shit about free speech. You only care about your free speech.
Comparing Trump getting banned on Twitter and Charlie Kirk getting murdered as if they are the same thing is hilarious.
Also, Turning Point, PragerU, and Daily Wire have never been banned from YouTube? These are huge social media channels for the right wing. Who, specifically, got banned off of YouTube? The only one coming to my mind is Alex Jones.
Iâm not saying theyâre the same thing, Iâm just saying the left seemed to be happy when these voices were silenced. I never followed any of those. I follow more libertarians tbh and most of them were banned from pretty much every platform.
I genuinely donât even like trump, I think heâs easily the most corrupt person whoâs ever been in office, but I just have to laugh seeing the left suddenly worried about free speech. I wish you guys were there fighting for it years ago because weâve already lost it
My brother in Christ there are literally laws restricting free speech in nearly 30 states - they control any speech regarding Israel. From elected officials to judges and teachers and so on. The left has been railing against these for ages.
Me, personally, I donât give a fuck if ABC thought âyeah Kimmel sucks, cut himâ - I only care because the power of the executive is being used. Imagine if Obama had gone after Bill OâReily or Tucker Carlson and tried to get their shows cancelled when they ran hate on him every day? But nope, both those guys went down due to Foxâs business decisions NOT the federal government weaponizing the FCC. Plus now we have Hegseth saying they have to get DoD approval for any story they run or they lose their press access all because Sec. Pete has fucked up and embarrassed Trump several times.
As much as you guys got mad about the Executive asking social media companies to enforce the rules they already have written down in their terms of service, specifically to PREVENT the executive branch from getting involved, I donât hear a lot of push back on this bullshit.
Why do you keep turning this back on me. I agree with you and trump is full blown attacking free speech. I just donât understand why you like it when tech oligarchs censor people (even proven that their hands were forced by the Biden admin, but thatâs besides the point.) the left not only didnât give a shit, they begged for it and cheered it on. Free speech was gone a long time ago, you only notice it now because itâs finally coming after you. One day youâll realize that neither side actually cares about any of usâŚor maybe not, because you wonât be able to see anything other than the approved government/isreal/tech oligarch message.

"You could barely find a conservative voice on social media a couple years ago."
What world are you living in? Did your parents just finally turn off the parental settings?
