    Silence is golden; silencing a bigoted, murderous sociopath is priceless.

    Twitter ban of Trump is like white house officials resigning with days left.  Too little too late.  If Twitter and other platforms ban Trump earlier, attack on capital could have been avoided.  Doing the right thing late may be for selfish reasons.  Most misinformation is spread by social media.  Not mainstream media.  On the internet, lies spread wide quickly while truth emerges slowly over time.  Constantly lying Trump is the most polarizing president in modern US history.

    So do you shut down apple if you text something on one of there phone's that may same the same thing  that would get you banned on twitter or fb , and what about your house leader do you put her in jail for saying (nothing is off the table) to get Trump out. So glad i don't use either one of those sites.

    Correcting the misinformation from sundance...

     

    Rush Limbaugh deactivates his own Twitter account
    after President Trump permanently banned
    due to inciting insurrection

     

    USA TODAY


    Twitter confirmed to USA TODAY that the account wasn't suspended an_lightan_light
    but was "deactivated by the owner."

     

    On Thursday, Limbaugh dismissed critics of violence.

Now that they have almost unchecked power...they are attempting to cancel the 1st amendment. They somehow believe that they know what the truth is and any opposing view should be canceled and anyone who disagrees with them should have their lives destroyed. It feels good right now but in the long run it will destroy their movement and possibly the country through Civil War. Virtually all Democracies end in this type of fashion. Fortunately...I am old enough to have experienced much in life and am retiring from 30+ years of govt. service soon.  The current groundswell seeks to destroy the history of the greatest country in the world and replace it with a Utopian view of what they believe the world should be like. Very dangerous. Virtually every immigrant in the world wants to come to a country where half of it preaches it is a horrible...reprehensible place that must be fundamentally changed. I challenge anyone saying this to go spend 6 months in Afghanistan...Pakistan...Syria or Somalia and then tell us how bad of a place America is. But like I said at the beginning of this thread...Democracies fail from within not from outside and I believe unfortunately ours is beginning to fail. And the winners in this mess will be the biggest of companies...Amazon...Walmart...Facebook etc who will end up with monopolies in concert with a government run system. Good luck to all of us. We're going to need it.

    Hilarious. Who is trying to cancel the first Amendment? Twitter? Facebook? The Dems? Too funny. You need to re-evaluate the 1st Amendment because you clearly do not understand 1st Amendment free speech protections. Social media firms are private businesses who carry the Constitutional rights to monitor and regulate their own content and guidelines. It has nothing to with the Dems. You think Pelosi is controlling Twitter? Please. These social media CEOs carry more power than Congress members. 

    What you should be more concerned with is radical extremists from the right intentionally creating political disinformation campaigns based on intentional lies, inaccuracies, misrepresentations, and flat out fake news stories and spreading them all over social media to intentionally dupe voters and the American public. Despite what many of the right think, there should be some type of collective effort by citizens and media entities to stop the spread of intentional disinformation, which undermines democratic processes and elections. It is sad that it took the actions of January 6 for social media companies to finally step up and take some regulatory action. an_light

    I don't think they should have banned him, At least while he was tweeting we were able to see what was going on in his mind, what he was thinking and planning.

    Twitter also permanently suspended the @TeamTrump account
    for "ban evasion," the company said late Friday.
