If a government directly acts to impede the exercise of someone’s First Amendment rights, then that is an obvious civil rights violation.
If a government indirectly acts, to persuade a third party to de-platform somebody’s speech, then that should also be a civil rights violation.

Because conservatives are not generally out of the box, creative thinkers. It takes a certain anti-establishment streak to create a disruptive platform like Facebook. Conservatives, by definition, are inclined to embrace the traditional socio-cultural norms and are less likely to create such breakthroughs.
Now, one could start something to compete with Facebook, but that is easier said than done because of the many patents that Facebook owns in this area.

Not trying to be flippant here but have you ever thought what it would cost to launch such an endeavor and have the political savvy to pull it off as well as the capital?

When do the book burnings start? Several years ago, by Facebook, Google and others.

Sounds to me like the state of Oregon is behind the fraud. Wheres the 9th Circuit ordering the Feds to take over the election process?

Not trying to be flippant here but have you ever thought what it would cost to launch such an endeavor and have the political savvy to pull it off as well as the capital? Of course I have!
But sadly, I just don't think it's in our DNA to do so. It used to be said that a rich conservative would buy a professional baseball team while a rich liberal would buy a newspaper.

Pull the plug on FB.
No, not you individually.

California, Illinois and Oregon are three states which should not have their election results certified due to massive-scale fraud.

Looks like the Leftist are in full mode to steal the election in 2020.Since this was a primary I don't see how it helps anyone to reduce the number of Republican voters, especially the Democrats.
Maybe one Republican candidate might do better over the others with a lower turnout but it seems a stretch.

Your title is misleading. It implies the Republicans are at the heart of this scandal.

It is not “my title”. It is the title of GP. If you click on the link you can see that.
Agree they should have come up with a better less confusing headline.
To: Enlightened1
Don’t forget that our Governor, when she was Secretary of State, did not follow the law and destroy unused ballots after the election deadline. What happened to those “unused,” ballots...Portland/Multnomah County waited to the last to get their vote counted. They needed to know how many “unused,” ballots they might need to win. Just a guess...but,
Dems will be Dems.
To: Enlightened1
Thanks for the clarification. Have a nice Memorial Weekend.

Geez! They don’t even bother to pretend anymore. I expect a LOT of popular conservative activists and commentators will be banned from social media platforms by October. Surprise!
