Eagles' defense won't be able to bail them out all season, and Foles is Foles again. Was a good game.

Alex Jones makes a good point in his rant against Democrats and big tech compaines.(just play the video).

He claims they should be broken up and regulated. But instead, bought out Democrats are working with big tech to silence "conservative and libertarian voices."

He leaves out how big tech has been clamping down on leftwing anti-war // wealth inequality stuff as well. And this is just the beginning.

[Ahldagor]

All the tech companies have free ground to silence whomever they want to on their platforms. It's not a threat to free speech because the federal, state, and local governemnts are the dissimination line the constitution refers to, and to stretch it into the ground of private institutions would be the most fundamentally fascistic move ever made in the US. Jones is a blowhard who's worried about his income in order to maintain a lifestyle because he's going to lose his ass on the Sandy Hook lawsuit. Always follow the money first.

Exactly, Infowars is the canary in the coal mine.

If you think this power won't be used against Leftists, you're naive.

Big tech companies may lean left (as Jack Dorsey from Twitter admitted), but that doesn't mean they'll agree with every leftist. And they have the power to silence you if they want.

A judge deemed Twitter a public space when ruling that Trump is not allowed to ban someone, so using that logic, it's safe to say these huge social media platforms are violating the First Amendment.

You can't have it both ways.

They have such a monopoly that the usual Libertarian response of "Just make your own Twitter" does not apply. Gab.ai and Minds.com are both responses to the over reach of big tech and both of them have been threatened by their domain registrars and even Mastercard.

[Ahldagor]

If all of Twitter was deemed a public space and not just President Trump's account, then Jones has grounds to sue and should do so if he sees fit. Bitching about it for viewership isn't going to force Twitter's hand.

And how the fuck am I up this early and not hungover?
