What Article and Section is that again…?

Stranger Than Fiction

“In my view, Twitter now is jumping to the front of the queue of the regulators,” Věra Jourová, the European Commission’s vice president for values and transparency, told POLITICO. [More]

And here Kurt Vonnegut thought he’d pushed the edge of the absurdity envelope with Diana Moon Glampers…

Funny, what happened to all those “progressives” who used to smirk at canceled “conservatives” and say “Twitter is a private company. It can do what it wants. If you don’t like it, start your own company.”

It’s also revealing how their political machine is so significantly funded by unions, where the members don’t do that, but instead, use the government to coerce changes in practices/wealth redistribution.

Montana Warns YouTube of Consequences for Acting as a Democrat Proxy to Censor Speech

Big Tech argues they deserve exemptions because they are not content providers. Acting as content deniers, suppressing anything that does not advance a state-approved “progressive” narrative, and facilitating the universal spread of that which does, effectively amounts to the same thing. [More]

How is removing legal content at the demand of Democrat politicians not a de facto First Amendment violation?

Sensitive, Aren’t We?

Oh, so that’s the reason.

I appealed the warning and gave as my reason:

This tweet documents photographic evidence that Hunter Biden has committed a second firearms-related felony that no one else in the media is covering.

That and I could find a million photos on Twitter that show more skin.

I’ll letcha know what they say.

UPDATE

I just noticed someone sent me a Facebook message yesterday:

Thanks for posting the Ammoland.com article on your fB Page on June 8 & 9th. I was curious if you received any notice from fB about it because I attempted to share it on my page and immediately noticed that it goes “against Community Guidelines” Really?!?!

As a result of sharing it, my #2A businesses have been issued a 28-day ban on Facebook.

I thought it was a well-documented and written article with citations, proof, and a reasonable argument.

Because there is no “Fact-Check” or notice on the post, it must be ok with it. However, just now, in writing this message, I tried to save the article here on fB, which issued two additional warnings that it was contraband.

Again though wanted to thank you for writing the article and the interesting observation and argument presented. I am curious if you have seen any additional follow-up or responses about your presentation. Somebody doesn’t want folks to ask the question.

That, of course, was the same Hunter Biden article, and no, FB never contacted me or took any kind of ban action against me. This and this are both still up with no warnings to me. I guess if they don’t let you know it makes exposing their censorship practices less likely.

Remember the first time they said I violated their “community standards”?

People lots bigger than me don’t want anyone to notice this. Unfortunately, I can’t create a Streisand Effect by myself.
