Yes, Virginia, there are privately-owned companies that can “do what they want.” And the word on Wall Street is that more than a few shareholders invested in Facebook and Twitter are not pleased that some people did something that damaged the value of their investments.

You Should Gab, Not Tweet
While I have not deleted my Twitter account, I refuse to tweet because of the censorship of President Trump and the election interference. Freedom of Speech is more than just the First Amendment’s prohibition of government censorship. It is a value. An American value.
Do I Even Have to Explain This?
Sorry, I don’t care about Godwin’s Law anymore. If it fits, use it; I’m no longer concerned with being nice anymore. They are just going after anyone, Conservative / Libertarian / other or not.
Breaking – OathKeepers has been deplatformed
Ah yes, “deplatformed” is becoming a word Conservatives are becoming to know all too well. Meh – just add it to the others like extremist, ultra-right wing, selfish, all the -phobic names, white nationalists, white supremacists, the list keeps going on. Don’t worry, they’ll keep coming up with more just like the Identity Group aficionados … Read more
Notable Quote: Why are they afraid of us?
Reformatted, emphasis mine: January 8, 2021. As a conservative political writer, which I’ve been for some time, Friday night had the weird feel of a surrealistic, conservative-thought-purging Kristallnacht. First and most surreal, Jack Dorsey’s Twitter permanently banning the account of the President of the United States. Not for some singular awful thing Donald Trump did, said, … Read more
Idaho ISP Blocks Facebook and Twitter After Customers Complain
Is turnabout fair play? Facebook, Twitter, and others have been de-platforming users so how about an ISP de-platforming Facebook and Twitter from their Internet Service?
Progressive Purge and Starting Civil War II? Conservatives: Screw You

What Do China, Iran, and Billionaire Tech-Hipster Yogi Jack Dorsey’s Sh*twitter Have in Common
Billionaire Tech-Hipster Yogi Jack Dorsey sits atop the rhetorical sh*t wagon we call Twitter. Sh*twitter. A never-ending noise machine that creaks along the digital super-highway with a nearly-religious-like devotion to directing political traffic.
Censorship And Worse On The Horizon
It didn’t take long for the Leftist-elitist class to make their first post-election move, banning President Trump from their online platforms then trying to put a bullet into independent options (like Parler). Unfortunately, it’s a safe bet that they are going after the First Amendment in order to then go after the Second. At that … Read more
IT’S HAPPENING!: Trump SILENCED on Twitter & Email, Parler App BANNED by Apple & Google
Communist China style suppression has arrived in America.
Not long ago I expressed serious concerns that soon, our sitting President’s ability to directly communicate with those he serves would be severely limited, if not terminated. Most did not believe it could happen because America is a Constitutional Republic – a Nation of Laws.
Poland Proposes Free Speech Court to Protect Social Media Content from Censorship
Poland has a new law under consideration. It’s simple. If someone publishes something that does not violate Poland’s Laws, Social Media platforms like Facebook and Twitter can’t censor it or deplatform the speaker. If they do and lose, it could cost them up to 2 million dollars.
As We Got Closer to the Election (And Especially Post-Election), Look at the Throttling Facebook Put on Us
I’ve mentioned this from time to time as has our Social Media Maven, Steve. I just wanted to let you know(and show you) how bad Facebook hates Conservative sites – and us especially for whatever reason.

Pete Ingemi (DaTechGuy) locked out of Twitter – 3rd time!
Twitter really doesn’t like any talk about Benford’s Law (although it seems to have passed the Twitter / FB Big-Bro Content Smellers for us) and Pete Ingemi really does seem to be having an issue with them (ok, really, it’s them with him. Naw, really, with all of us that are on the other side … Read more
Twitter Censorship … How Should we Respond?
Jack Dorsey and other technology executives spoke Wednesday on their moderation practices. They appeared before the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. The testimony comes following Twitter’s decision to suspend the New York Post from its platform.

Another Progressive Angry That a Conservatarian Listened To Her Talk – Gracie Gato: Stalker!!!! Part 2
Heh! Reports are coming back that said Progressive is unhappy that said Conservatarian is using her words in order to comment on them. Free Speech much?

It is Time for Social Media Regulation?
Way back in 2017 (it seems almost ancient history now) I wrote this “editorial” for another blog. I don’t claim to be prescient, but it was obvious even back then that “social media platforms” were out of control.
“Facebook Lets Activists Restrict My Videos Based on Something I Never Said.”
This is an ongoing problem with Facebook that they won’t acknowledge by actually DOING something. Oh, they’ll issue a non-apology apology.
