This is more important than football, whether you like Trump or not banning him from all social media platforms is very dangerous indeed .what next censorship because you dont like the colour yellow.. you may laugh but the way it's going it could be a distinct possibility.

Free speech is long gone. It's not just him, Parler has been taken down by Apple, Google and especially Amazon (who it seems proved the servers)
"They aren't coming for me, they're coming for you. I'm just in their way" Donald Trump
Two points 1. I suspect he's wrong, and they will come for him 2. People have been removed from Youtube, Facebook, Twitter etc; for 4 years. Loads of people have been de-personed. He had 4 years to do something about this. He didn't, and now here we are.

I think he's being banned because of inciting violence.

I'm guessing what you are referring to is, Trump's team have put together a vast dossier of evidence, which indicates massive fraud in the election. The details of which are suppressed on MSM, even Fox, and no way is it going to be heard in court. It must be the most expensively put together case, never to be used, ever. That is what the march was about. The government was to vote on certifying the results of the election. Pence was indicating he's back this, and not refuse and get the evidence examined in court. The purpose of the march was to try and prick his, and other representatives' conscience. It failed. I can't see what Trump can do now, other than to publish on line, all the details, and let people make their own minds up. I think he's too old carry on now; and if he's right, then there isn't much point anyway. I honestly believe the only thing the people can do now, is push for secession in their own states.

They are talking about impeaching him. No idea if the voting was rigged. I liked Trump he was entertaining and was the only one with the balls to tell China they were responsible for Corona. However the comment 'free speech under threat' is laughable. There is no such thing.

However the comment 'free speech under threat' is laughable. There is no such thing. Agreed. Regarding the election, the end result is the same whether it was rigged or not. The evidence hasn't been challenged properly. Not been examined publicly in court, there has been no counter evidence shown, just "that's bollocks" and left there. As a result, I can't know exact figures, but certainly a massive section of the population believe it was a fiddle. The implications are enormous, if the voters believe the game's rigged.

The rumour is Trump has signed the Insurrection Act, and will be handing over power, but to the US Military, who are the true last line against foreign interference. They will sort this mess out.
Anyone see Elon Musk posting? He’s not happy with big tech sensors, and has allegedly threatened to turn then off with his own big space toys 😂
Just sit back and get the popcorn out this week
These guys are not the ‘woke’ brigade....

Trump has given up on the presidency. I imagine he'd like to get the truth out there, but the matter of who's president is settled. Not sure who will be the next Bogeyman. The destruction of Parler should worry anyone who doesn't fall in line with big tech. The Republican hierarchy have only themselves to blame. I'm reasonably sure many of their party members with blame them.

Free speech is a fallacy.
Lets face it everyone bites their tongue in the work place or in public.
In my view what has happened is during the 80's and 90's people took their views home with them and discussed them with their mates in the privaacy of their own home.
Social media re-introduced it back into a public sphere where people could type something and to a degree remain annoymous or so they think. Basically all the ism's were always around it just got pushed out of public domain but now are in social media. I have been a social media junky for around 12 years but have scaled it right back. Used to have 1400 followers on twitter I cut them down to 120 and try to keep it to mainly Blues stuff. Even facebook I have had clear out down to 70 friends. Life is too short to be living it on a phone. I do fear for the next generation, my kids are glued to it. My daughter has never been allowed to have phone in bedroom at night because for me they need some space from it. Give it 50 years and kids will have phones built into their fcuking skin!!!

I'm not on social media, but over the years people with you tube channels, have reported how they've been booted off. Many you tubers have been booted off YT, and those who remain have to be very careful what they say.
We now have hate speech. Having an opinion is a crime, if it's the wrong one. If someone states that in their view, someone who has his dinky removed, isn't a woman. Hate speech. Saying someone isn't what they identify as, does not mean you hate them.
Some protests are allowed, some aren't.
Parler, an alternative twitter, has been closed by a big tech cartel. I don't know how safe bitchute (alternative youtube) is.
Wee Kranky wants to monitor speech inside people's homes. The government seems bent on destroying pubs.

Feck me, we've already shown that one "libertarian video" is bollocks today, and now we've got more nonsense showing up here.
Well done Romes, this could run and run! Not as far as "Millwall fans" perhaps, but even so ...
