    Edward Snowden Retweeted Alex Kantrowitz

    Facebook officially silences the President of the United States. For better or worse, this will be remembered as a turning point in the battle for control over digital speech.https://twitter.com/Kantrowitz/status/1347209358531198979 …

    BREAKING: Facebook blocks Trump from accessing his accounts indefinitely, per Zuckerberg. "We believe the risks of allowing the President to continue to use our service during this period are simply too great." https://www.facebook.com/zuck/posts/10112681480907401 … pic.twitter.com/IGmHkieG8L

        I know a lot of folks in the comments read this are like "YAAAAS," which, like—I get it. But imagine for a moment a world that exists for more than the next 13 days, and this becomes a milestone that will endure.

        In this case it's been stablished over and over again that the one who polices the speech are the platform owners. That's part of the package.

        And that’s the BINGO response to what was posted. But that’s where big tech and censorship is used by the right to say their freedom of speech is being infringed upon. To use it as an excuse to lie and disinform as a part of their liberal communism narrative.
