...."Top Reddit moderators have provided Big League Politics with information showing that left-wing operatives including an employee of CBS have been involved in posing as Trump supporters to post offensive anonymous content on Reddit in order to get pro-Trump subreddits flagged. BLP will be rolling out that information today as this censorship purge goes into high gear.

...More than 30 covert left-wing actors have been identified coordinating with Phillips, including activists linked to Media Matters and the ACLU."

I despise Social Media, but these things ARE big deal: The fact is, these platforms are a large part of why President Trump was elected. They have become Public Utilities in many ways....

Don’t bother, the Qanon haters are just smarter than the rest of us.

Kinda like Democrats, Liberals, and the Media.

Why do we even go on these sites. I have left Twitter, REDDIT, all of them except Facebook, but I do the bare minimum.

Alex Jones was the low-hanging fruit. The censorship will continue, and we’re going to see a lot of leftist trolls posing as racist or violent right-wingers in an effort to shut down as many conservative sites as possible. The tech platforms will be happy to oblige.

Yes.

But reddit and Q are not Freerepublic.

Q is an online version of a gypsy reading palms and fortunes.

Wet amendment stops the government from stifling speech.

Reddit is not the govt..

Ask Jim Robinson if he gets to throw people off his platform if he wants.

He can, he has, and he will in the future because the 1st amendment does not apply.

Feel free to be offended however since I don’t care about Q or Reddit as much as you do.

It is interesting that they feel they have to still resort to subterfuge. Google is being pretty open and re-sorts its search according to its political aims. Facebook and Twitter sometimes don’t even give reasons any more. There are several platforms now that would be good alternatives to these but the mass of conservative and others who don’t like the censorship have to decide to move. I don’t think it can be organized. Somebody has to offer an exponentially better platform.

Is anybody here naïve enough to believe that this doesn't occur on ALL conservative platforms?

Targets:

Trump

Qanon

we do have this problem in the forum....next time you get post that has you scratching your head look up the posting history of the person sometime you will find that they are only here to make the forum look bad by trolling individuals and pressing there buttons . it is very evident from there past posts they don’t have a core conservative philosophy.

I believe that there may very well be the basis for a libel action, here. But, to be candid, I am too old to take the case. They would need a lawyer with plenty of energy, plenty of time and the financial strength to see a major case to a successful result, both at the trial & appellate level.

Shutting down social media accounts to silence speech interferes with elections.

Unlike FaceBook shutting down a site on its own platform, this is trolling on other hosting platforms to use their rules of service as a weapon against people to get them shut down.

This should be treated like any other denial of service attack or cybercrime.
