IDK what they did, probably condoned Proud Boys dressed as Hamas supporters spraypainting things and burning flags.

I use Bluesky.   I really wish I just had my Google Reader app back b/c my main use of these things is news aggregation.

this cannot just be incompetence at this point. something more than that here.

"Harris must respond to Trump racist attacks" is just bonkers. WTF is going on. It's like 2016 never happened.

 

I think Trump needs to justify why he is Orange. There are no humans that are naturally orange on the planet

Have they written the "Trump faces a pivotal moment as Harris and Biden's success in foreign policy makes a mockery of his very existence as the nominee of a supposedly serious political party in the currently broken two party system" headline yet?

Some people say he is crossbred with an Orangutan but that's just talk.

Again, I think she should say it just once: I am proud of both my African Jamaican and South Asian Indian heritages equally, but in the end, I am most proud to be an American with a chance to do the most good for the American people, something like that. Say it once and let the surrogates tweet that from now to the election.

So Elon Mush is suing advertisers for boycotting Twitter?    LOL.    You HAVE to advertise on my platform.  

Hey, Mr. Free Speech (who bans people for not agreeing with him),  Advertisters have Freedom Of Speech too and they don't want anything to do with you, you phony.

I remember the right wing saying amazon was violating free speech too... and apple.

They think free speech means you are entitled to an audience and to customers.

The Russians are trying to reframe the entire concept of free speech, among other thing, to strip it of all meaning so people have no idea what it even is anymore. Are we going to let them?

private companies.   You couldn't walk into the lobby of an accounting office and started yelling like Don Logan in Sexy Beast,  you'd be escorted out.     Same thing here.  If they don't like what you're saying they can sack you.      If Elon Musk doesn't like people calling his Republican buddies "Weird", he has every right to ban you.    But then to say he's a free speech advocate is just ridiculous.
