White House launches tool to report censorship on Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter
- Thread starter Haruko
- Start date
This out of the White House while the civilized world gathered to pledge to crack down on online terrorism after the Christchurch attack.
Not sure how that poster keeps going. They always somehow manage to skirt by, by never following up with their drive by posts.
It's not censorship when you click a box upon signing up to signify that you understand their terms of service, and then later end up banned or whatever for not conforming to those terms. You agreed to the terms, that's the key. When you agree to the terms by checking the box you have no right to cry censorship when material of yours is removed for breaking their terms. Maybe people should actually read those things, because you tend to give up some of your rights when checking that box.

I've been trying to report ResetEra for the longest time. Maybe finally someone will listen. You dastardly evil doers you.
Egg-fucking-xactly!! This right fucking here. It's like the people banned from here that claim they were unfairly banned but won't admit what they were REALLY banned for.
And why are the so called "good" conservatives always miraculously nowhere to be found when this blatant shit comes up? Where are they at screaming know it's ok Alex Jones was a piece of shit and didn't represent us. The Trumps don't speak for us, we disagree with this. Why instead of calling them out on their bullshit that they supposedly don't agree with, they are spouting "well, gee whiz, maybe they got a point freedom of speech blah blah". All of them, all of them are bad actors, acting in bad faith. They ALL either want the same goals or at best dont really give a shit as long as they get what they want.
Well we know why they didn't take the Christchurch Call pledge . They were working on something to discourage sites from moderation.
Just so you know, it asks you for your name, zip code, phone number. So you might want to google those details for Trump Tower before you write Donald Trump's complaints about Breitbart.
im going to use this tool against Trump admin for their censorship of respecful speech on trump's twitter account
Sounds like government interference in business. Strange, I thought they didn't like that notion...
Maybe you should do your part and call the police the next time a friend or family member gets unfairly silenced.
I think the last 3 years have shown they are totally cool with it as long as it serves a Republican agenda. The days of "small government" are long over. Now it's "our government only and the rest are enemies of the state".
3rd question, are you a us citizen or permanent resident. If you write no, they log your IP information, give info to ICE and have you deported
Ana Navarro?
That being said, the NeverTrump movement is perhaps one of the most unsuccessful modern political movements of all time.
file a report every time somebody gets banned from r/thedonald, aka, the biggest safe space in the internet.
at the very end of the form there is a TOS. guess whats in the TOS:

It's almost as if America would rather give up the internet then give up white supremacy.
Edit: lol at the ToS. "We can use your name and contact information and misquote or take you out of context, forever."

Much like the keep you gubamint hands off my medicare/medicaid crowd.
ok guys i get it the post wasnt good i just dont like censorship of any form
True, I should be able to advocate for the genocide of other races and call people LGBT or ethnic slurs all I want on here. That would be far better than banning it, right? smh.
The GOP, the party of small government not interferring in your lives, unless you are a woman, a minority, part of the LGBTQ community, non Christan.......
All the pre candidate Trump Never Trumpers, were sucking his cock like it had immortality sauce all over it once he became the candidate.
Moderation != censorship.ok guys i get it the post wasnt good i just dont like censorship of any form
If anything, the ability to moderate a platform that you personally own is a way of exercising your own right to free speech. You have the right to align your platform with the type of discussion and content that you wish to allow. Deceptively couching that as censorship is a covert attack on free speech.
