It doesn't happen as often because you choose not to, not because the right or conservatives or trumpers are not frequently grouped together here by people. Why play games? You're gonna earn your praise either way.

Some do, but I feel like it was more retaliation, not that I like it, I wish Rob and Bash, would stop saying "Trumpers" just as much as I wish all the other labels weren't used. They don't add to the conversation and are prejudice towards people's beliefs to the point that someone might think a user believes a certain thing just because they agree with someone else who does believe that thing yet, agree with that person on a completely different issue.

Lol. But see what one can't help but observe is that you didn't bat an eye out of all the times you saw the term trumpers used, but somehow finally enough was enough when I said "the left".

Do you see the problem?

"Trumper" is a portmanteau of 'Trump' and 'Supporter'. Trumpers call themselves "Trumper".

"Trumpet", yeah, that's an insult towards a Trump supporter. I very rarely use "Trumpet" in the fashion though. Very, very rare.

You, eThneo, Broly and DDM say "the left" all the ****ing time. Rob's probs the only one who says Trumper at about the same rate, and sometimes Bash and Whirly. It's different cos you guys be more common.

Lol show me one example of you calling Rob out for using it. Or calling out anyone for saying "the right".

Or admit you're a hypocrite and move on. Lets not dig this hole any further okay?

Lol you claimed you did it before today.

I do, it just doesn't happen as often. Like Trumpers are insecure that they might be called out and have to say "NO U" a thousand times so 1 attack gets ignored.... Just like Trump!

Just admit the hypocrisy and move on. Or I guess your very next post could contain proof of your original claim. Maybe? Lol. Probably not tho let us both be real.

I'm not going to dig through page after page of shitposts. Move on, Surtur.

We both know you've never said shit. So yes we can move on.

In my defense, as a leftist, I don't refer to all leftists derogatorily. I try to at least call the terrible ones "retarded leftists."

Now twitter is censoring the joe biden/hunter biden email story lol. First claiming it was unverified, then "hacked" despite no evidence, etc.

And of course the russian bounties story, which was never verified, didn't receive the same treatment. The trump tax return stories never received the same treatment. The steele dossier never received the same treatment.

Still, I will allow folk to claim there isn't a bias on twitter against a certain side.

I'm not even saying the story is accurate, but speed in which the media and big tech decided it wasn't is alarming and seems like election interference. I'd love an educated lefty to explain why a russian posting a meme on facebook is, but this is not.

Of course it will create a Streisand Effect and cause more to see it, but that isn't the point that wasn't their intent.

Great post.

🙂

Read about this last night. It was all over the place. Twitter needs to go. It is censoring people in a biased way and not consistently. We need the "publisher" ruling to happen ASAP. Places like Facebook and Twitter need to get out of the business of content curation and publishing.

"But what about illegal content!" I like the system of classifying content by certain categories. Some categories should always be automatically censored with the content creator having the option to appeal and then a human reviews it.

Looks like turn around is fair play in the nuthouse of USA politics, we knew this was going to happen after how the democrats handled themselves with the last election.

Yup

If they get regulated they have nobody to blame but themselves.

It is inevitable.

We are just talking about timeline, at this point. It can happen sooner than later if they keep doing things like election interference.

Kamala Harris suspended her campaign travel after two people working in her campaign test positive for SARS-CoV-2.

Looks like the virus doesn't discriminate.*

*This is why I don't think the Democrats are behind the virus. The conspiracy theory is rather stupid. It kills black, white, man, woman, etc. It mostly kills fat people, though. So, this is the fat-people killer virus. Sure, the Dems may be capitalizing on the virus issues for power grabs but it's retarded to think the Dems created the virus.

he's running down the list of "things that worked last time". basically means he has nothing left. maybe another antifa-themed reichestag fire or two, but what else is there left for him to do to muster support besides attack iran for no reason

You're not wrong as usual, few days ago Trump claimed all of Clinton's email were going to be released and that his justice department would be going after her. ie "Lock her up!" is still in play.

It's crazy to think this lie can still gin-up Trumpers 4+ years later.

This is more accurate:

2016: "But her emails!" - Democrats who did not support Hillary, Republicans, and Trumpers

2017: "But her emails!" - Democrats who did not support Hillary, Republicans, and Trumpers

2018: "But her emails!" - Democrats who did not support Hillary, Republicans, and Trumpers

2019: "But her emails!" - Democrats who did not support Hillary, Republicans, and Trumpers

2019: "Prosecute Biden's corruption!" - Democrats who do not support Biden, Republicans, and Trumpers

2020: "But her emails!" - Democrats who did not support Hillary, Republicans, and Trumpers

2020: "Prosecute Biden's corruption!" - Democrats who do not support Biden, Republicans, and Trumpers
