Posting well on point today...+1

just two comments.....

1) LOTS of people are fed up with social media's "lack of standard rules or enforcement"....

Not just T.....

But we know how y'all like to bang that drum....

😝

 

and 2) Hook that CB on a linear and blow everyone's squelch button right off their sets 🤣

I promise you, I'm as for freedom of speech as anyone. I do also think platforms share some liability in what they're allowing and how they're enforcing it. It's a difficult task because if humans are involved directly, there will be some bias. No way around it. Even in algos, humans will be programming them, so, then their biases are potentially programmed in. 

Like I said before, there is simply no right answer. 

The bigger the platform, the further the reach, the more scrutiny there likely needs to be on the platform applied as equally as possible. Then we start running into issues where each country potentially has their own rules toward these freedoms, protections, scrutinies, so potentially a company can just relocate their servers and operations to "change" the rules they're operating under. 

Lots of moving parts.

I did once have a base cb that I could direct the output enough to light a light bulb with signal output. Believe it or not, they can track that bad boy right to you if you "overuse" it. They have a meter that will lead them right to your barn where they will promptly unplug you. I found that out on my own. Haha.

Well it's not like you are BROADCASTING IT or anything ....🤣

We never needed that much range...Seaside is only an island of a couple miles, and when the whole crew was out cruising, everyone was usually in range.....and truth be told I think the PA horns got more use on the ocean ave strip...LOL

PS: When social media came out I laughed for years.....we had this shit with full audio 50 years ago 🤣 

 

This was prior to Cellphones for those younger folk BTW...haha

Now how does someone who can't add, and doesn't know what 'censorship' is....

manage to accomplish that?!?

🤣

 

   

No dummy,  I said they didn’t censor him,  if you’re going to quote do it correctly and not pull from yours ass.  You’re the one that went from censorship to twitter being accused of “Scarlett letters and hot branding”.  😂 
 
His tweets are still there ...  Oh what a travesty

I can’t believe there’s a debate on whether the President should be allowed to freely spread misinformation and falsehoods on certain platforms. The depths these clowns will go to avert the truth

 

Still, it’s even more hilarious to see right wing blowhards defend what they’d usually call socialist behavior, like  the government shutting down social media because it’s not furthering their agenda. Sounds a lot like ‘Jina’

 

 

That’s just dumb troll, the guys a flaming idiot.  He’s entertaining as his opinions will never influence anything or anyone.

The consensus is you’re an idiot.  The only tool walking around thinking otherwise is you...what you see reflected back in the mirror is not what you are in reality, tinfoil man.  😂 

So troll,  what violation is breached by twitter “hot branding” trump?  😂

That must be a NO on those psychic powers .....

Sorry but "truthfulness" has never been some pre-requisit for free speech...and while that does not mean that you may slander others with untruths...people do have their own versions and own opinions, they are able to speak....regardless of whether you believe them 'true' or not.......DUH!

but you couldn't add that one up could you?

If "YOU BELIEVE" it untrue, you find solace in censoring it....

good for you.....👌

Glad we have a constitution 👍

You don’t have to be a psychic to truth fact a statement.  Nonetheless dummy, they didn’t censor nor delete his comment.  

so back to the discussion and full circle, they didn’t censor his comments, but linked facts to what he was claiming.  Does linking counter statements mean the reader has to accept them as fact?  The answer is “no”. It’s amazing how DJT is threatened by people having access to info.

you didn’t read the tweets and a link is not a modification, as the tweet and it’s message content was intact. The reader is still fully able to read and reject the tweets in part or whole as the poster intended. 
 

try again jackass ...

I have to say that I'm kind of torn on this. While some of us know and understand that DJT's opinion is potentially wrong, and certainly isn't backed up by any major evidence, is it right to censor what he is saying. 

I don't agree that Twitter adding a fact check link is censorship. He was allowed to say whatever he wanted to. Hence he wasn't censored at all. 

Now, if we want to debate whether editing his tweet to add the link was wrong or not, then I feel like we are getting somewhere. 

People will have a lot of differing views on this, most will depend on personal biases. Some will argue that the debate should be had in the thread involving the tweet and it's replies, but, the truth be told, most people will not read that debate, and will only see the original tweet, retweet it and etc., thereby promoting the potential misinformation steadily across the planet. 

Personally, I don't see an issue with the fact check link. I don't buy the argument that it's censorship first and foremost. People still have a choice whether to believe what the tweet said without ever even clicking the link, or, they can click the link and make up their own minds. I figure twitter honestly handled the situation pretty well to be honest. They did not change anything the president said, and inspite of him using his personal account, he is still the president and not just a random Twitter user. He really should be subject to fact check scrutiny without people needing to wade through all of the garbage in the thread to make a decision. 

Just my personal opinion on the entire thing. The president deserves additional scrutiny over any other member really, but, he has been granted a lot of leeway since becoming president rather than additional scrutiny from the platform.

I don’t think it was an edit either.  An edit, /changes/corrects, modifies conteant directly to his message, it wasn’t.  You have to physically click in the link to gain access.  If you reject the additional info, you don’t have to click the link.

It was an edit as it was added directly to the tweet, not pinned as the top comment or some other thing. It was added directly into his tweet. Idk if there was a better way to add the fact check though. I'd lean toward pinning a comment directly below the tweet that can't be removed or bypassed over adding something directly to the tweet, even though it's evident that the president didn't say it or add it himself.

Why would I even need to read his tweets to know the deal?

What you are missing here is that in a PRIVATE setting....the "TRUTH" is only what the PRIVATE OWNER declares it to be...

...And selective enforcement is also within their rights....

DUH!

So any argument on what is "actually true" whether you believe it or not is moot in a private setting...

 

Oh and BTW: Prepgridiron can just slap a brown Scarlet Letter "N" on your moniker anytime they like ....you know....with a link and note indicating that as a black man you are much more likely to steal and wind up in jail....cool huh?  you are not being censored...... and too bad if it is only selectively enforced....👍....great argument you are championing there huh?

A better way would have been the following disclaimer..."Trumpy The Ass Clown is a known habitual fucking liar.  Read his tweets at your own peril."

If you read it you’d have a better understanding of what you’re babbling about instead of walking around all the time clueless

this isn’t about arbitrarily adding links, they are accusing him of violating the terms of use.  I read it, it’s specific to his tweet.  

no one is compelled to open and read the link. You can read trumps tweet in full without interruption and keep moving.
