i think that for the most part, dissenting views should be allowed to exist because of free speech principles.
one person may strongly feel that something is true while someone else may present “facts” that support the opposing view.
when that is the case, healthy discussion is mostly productive.
@millie210:
Amazon is not Twitter and hosting a social network is not like letting a user post on your platform. Different platforms have different standards for moderation and I am not going to pretend they are consistent between them or even apply the standards consistently within a platform.
I am not sure what you are arguing asides pointing out these double standards. Do you think Amazon should have kept hosting Parler despite their refusal to stay within the terms of service?

The tech giants have actually been pretty clear in their reasoning. For instance, Amazon took down Parler because they refused to moderate content about killing named individuals. I think you can argue about the first amendment and whether some of this stuff is hyperbole, but when the same people then go out and kill/try to kill people and have a coup it seems pretty straight forward to refuse to provide them your services.
For context, here is the angry mop being a cop to death:

With all the evidence of massive voter fraud the legal procedures must be going really well for the Trump campaign!
Regarding the 130'000 vote jump:

I find it interesting that whenever Trumps lawyers have to argue in front of a judge the claims even they make regarding voting irregularities tends to become very vague.
just going by the topic titles you've been using these last few weeks.. do you think you can survive a whole four years with someone that's not exactly your favorite candidate?.
i know i'm in the minority from what i've been reading here, but i'm glad for the change!.
well, we all can't be satisfied altogether can we?.

Well, I am sure minimus will keep us up to date on a daily basis about what he is thinking
i don’t think so.
the election results will probably be decided by the supreme court..
who wins?
who loses?
president/ senate/ house of representatives .
Biden also takes the lead in Pennsylvania. The election will probably be called later today.
a month ago it might have been questionable.
not now.
after bader’s death and biden’s inability, this shouldn’t be close.
Unfair polls or that Trump has been unfavored by the majority throughout his presidency and he ended it by mishandling a pandemic?
Tough call what might have sunk him...
who wins?
who loses?
president/ senate/ house of representatives .
Biden ahead in Georgia by 1096 votes now and the remaining votes are likely to lean dem.
Trump is lost. The talk about Florida, lawsuits, and so on are just a form of self-therapy where he settles into the story he will tell himself and everyone willing to listen for the rest of his life.
