Above: the real victim here. |
I guess what I want to know is how come we're in the middle of a global pandemic, millions of people are out of work and another black man was just murdered-
on video-and his killer has yet to face charges, but Twitter having the temerity for calling the President out for lying about voter fraud is
cause for executive action? I mean, I guess I know the answer: it's because hypocrisy. He doesn't believe in freedom of speech so much as he believes that he should be allowed to spread misinformation to dumbs.
So what happened? What egregious act of censorship did the liberal media perpetrate this time? Twitter tagged a Tweet the President-uh-tweeted with a link to facts about mail-in ballots. Because he was lying about mail-in ballots. Those monsters.

Literally every sentence in these two tweets are demonstrably
false or wild, paranoid speculation, but sure, censorship. |

"Because it's only the free
market when they're nice to me."

According to
the leaked draft of his upcoming executive order, the President accused social media platforms of censoring him which is nonsense for a couple of reasons. I'm not an expert, but censorship is something governments do to control whatever it deems as dangerous material (to them). When a private company does it it's called being a private business. Like, Twitter or Facebook or whomever have every right to tag dangerous bullshit as dangerous bullshit. What's weird is that conservatives love the free market, so why is this any different?
I guess it's the same reason the Right is into states' rights except when states want to keep business and churches closed to keep a pandemic from killing millions of our precious human capital stock or whatever that goon said. Hey, you don't suppose all this is because he owes his Presidency to lying on social media and now that they're calling him out on it, he's freaking out and trying to use executive action to protect his influence?
