Oligarchic capitalists

If Facebook decides to keep stuff or remove stuff, instead of letting it fly in plausible deniability, it means that Facebook actively support all the views and exchanges that go on there. As a result Facebook is liable and can be sued for directly supporting terrorist activities.

As a result Facebook can be sued for racism and discrimination too since its activities within are blessed by Facebook.

Well now, ain't that interesting? Here's a new FR post - Diamond and Silk Destroy Rep. Johnson at Media Hearing in Washington April 26, 2018

B-b-b-but that just can't be! I heard from a reliable source that it was the other way around.

Could it be that the “backfire” heard by The Hill was just their own farts?

Chairman Goodlate allowed the mess to happen. He let the Dims keep interrupting the women continually, which amped up the tension. He was bad.

Well now, this explains everything. Diamond and Silk did so well, they threatened the Democrats. Can’t have two feisty black gals supporting Trump! So one of the Democrat media outlets—that would be pretty much all of them—released excerpts designed to make the ladies look bad.

It all checks out.

Stay off their platforms if you don’t want to become one of their test subjects.

Pavlov agrees...

The minute I heard about Facebook I realized it was nothing but data mining.

I never signed up for an account.

I did sign up for Twitter but never used it.

Democrats clashed with Diamond and Silk? That’s their mistake.

Sheila and Hank ought to be ashamed of themselves.

If you want to see it all in context, you can watch the whole thing here.

I'm watching now.

"...but Democrats went on the attack stressing this was about the rights of a private business to run their business as they see fit and the government should stay out of determining what a private business could censor."

Except, businesses aren't allowed to run their business as they see fit when it's a conservative-owned business, i.e., Christian bakeries who refuse to make wedding cakes for homos. They're thrown to the lions.

""Private business" my ARSE."

How many private businesses met as many times with Obama as Facebook and Google? Not many I'd say.

What kind of troll are you? Diamond and Silk did beautifully! They demonstrated honesty and sincerity in a city that completely lacks these virtues. These charming young ladies have stood up to tremendous abuse simply for holding a political position that the leftists in this county deem unacceptable for people of their ancestry. They heroically speak truth to a corrupt power and they deserve our admiration and support.

I am willing to bet that Sheila and Hank have lost any concept of shame and dishonor.
