Thread for Leftist Hypocrisy and Other Immoral Behavior.

I don't think they are getting hit very hard by censoring. I use these platforms every day to create campaigns and monetize.

The left tends to be more active on the web and uses more social media platforms. You don't have to believe me, go to FB create a business (fake) and create a campaign using their material for demographics, it literally spells out the users.

I don't doubt that the left is more active on these networks, but there still is a sizeable conservative userbase, and neither FB or Twitter is going to go so far as to really antagonize them.

I think as far as partisan enforcement of their rules goes on these sites, giving control over to the government would probably only make such a thing worse and make it even less consistent.

You just brought up the money and I was saying there is a lot less money to lose on the right then the left for these platforms.

They might be losing out by not marketing to a more neutral position but they would literally be losing if they didn't position themselves to the left.

When you build a base you don't build it based on the minority unless you have a niche and these platforms aren't niched they ARE the norm for public use.

Honestly go build a fake campaign then I think you would better understand the position you present.

Sorry, I don't really understand your point, I'm talking about Facebook and Twitter themselves, global multi-billion dollar conglomerates, not some sketchy local business. The experiences between the two are not comparable, but if you want to make illogical comparisons be my guest.

That is all you had to say, I get it.

Indeed, your inability to make a coherent point is not my concern.

It ranks up there with the inability to understand business platforms.

Right. "Go make a fake business page on facebook, then you will understand the business dealings of a 130 billion dollar corporation" sounds incredibly nuanced and intelligent. I should go tell my friends who want to start a business to abandon college and just do that to learn all they need about business finances and marketing.

It's not the page, its the incredible amount of demographics they have stored for business folks to draw from.

You can sort data to the degree of nightly news channels and see how much potential traffic is available. GD man, I 'm not feeding you shit to fill my belly I'm just telling you how it is.

No you're doing it to try and retort a point I never made.

Is that your point?

Yes, and that is not this:

I never implied that the opposite was true.

So if you wouldn't mind clearly state your position if you feel as though I am misrepresenting your position.

My position is most platforms have an obvious left-leaning bias, I can make that claim based on demographics supplied to me from said platforms.

Sure, and I apologize for the snark, I may have misunderstood the intentions in your responses.

My point is simply that Twitter and Facebook, who utilize such wide nets in regards to their massive user bases, would be unwise to alienate and overtly censor those who lean conservative because, while I recognize that there are probably more on he left using those sites than those on the right, there is still a significant number on the right that use them, and thus they would be losing out on revenue gained from those people by pushing them away. I think they will put profit ahead of political biases, for the most part.

Fair enough.

This would hardly be the first time a business did something that was unwise.

Right, discussions can be had but I don't see changing minds.

This is assuming their only motivation is profit.

And not social engineering.

So in comparing this with your inability to do basic math...yeah, I'm pretty okay with it 👆

And btw to Rob: It's up to you whether you believe this, but I genuinely didn't remember it, but looking at the dates it was over a year ago. Yes, your memory did prevail here, props where it is due. Though you said this was done multiple times, and I'm guessing you meant cuz we went back and forth several times, but to me your comment came off like there was more than 1 conversation where this had to be done. Apologies.

Have facebook and twitter ever really been seen as bastions of free speech? Bottom line: They can ban whoever they want for whatever reason, any website can, no one has a right to use either of these sites, or any other. And that's how it should stay. Introducing government and forcing the hand of private companies is definitely a violation of their freedom of speech.

You failed here and were exposed. Best part is you got in your knees and begged for forgiveness like a true loser. You accept your station in life. Wonderful.

This right here shows how warped you are lol. I apologized to someone because I was wrong. It's something you're too weak to ever do.
