Didn't trump try to ban TikTok from the U.S. because the entire world was laughing and making fun of him on there ?
No.
I recall him trying to shut down a Chinese state run social media site though.

believe he's referring to YouTube's recent decision to ban vaccine misinformation videos
I mean they have been censoring a lot of stuff for a long time. if only the vaccine has just made you realize that YT is censoring information.. Does it really affect you after all?

Let me preface by saying I do not care if people get a vaccine or not.
Did you get the vaccine or are you punching out?

I got the worthless vaccine because it was mandated for my job.
I'm still having to wear a worthless fricking mask, too.

I know, I’m in the same boat. You have a lot more time in than I do so I wasn’t sure if you were going to tell them to shove it.
I don’t have to wear a mask all of the time though.

Just curious if you've had your account blocked on this site, or if you've had posts deleted due to the political nature of the content.
I have had many posts removed, had my posting privileges suspended a few times, and I’m currently suspended from posting on the Political board. I don’t really care, but since you asked.

So I guess you're a clown as well? Way to stand up for those principles! Doesn't have the conviction to quit his job over a vaccine mandate and wears a mask, yet tries to call out others for getting vaccinated and wearing masks.

I don't know whether to laugh or genuinely be disturbed by this.
Basically, I'm against the censorship, but to finally see a liberal get to feel what conservative social media people have endured is satisfying.
Overall, I'd say you shouldn't be censored.

I don’t think my feeling of indifference over it is on par with the bellyaching and teeth gnashing from conservatives. I’ve been on the internet since the mid 90’s and have had more accounts banned from various sites than I care to count. Heck, I got bored one Christmas break in college and got my parents AOL account banned in the late 90’s. Internet “censorship”(which is usually just enforcement of TOS) is nothing new.
I evbeen “banned” from the political board since January or February and this is the first time I’ve even mentioned it.

So, NOT anti-vax, but they're worthless. Masks are idiocy for political theater, but you wear them.
I wear the worthless mask while indoors at work because it's mandated by the stupid Secretary of Defense who was appointed by our fricking idiot President.
Thankfully, 95% of my work days are outside so I don't have to wear one.
I haven't worn a mask in businesses in 9 months.
ETA: If the masks worked, we wouldn't need vaccines. If the vaccines worked, we wouldn't need to wear a mask.

I’ve read the politics board and it seems to be pretty wide open. What did you say to get banned?
Posted on 9/30/21 at 8:13 am to C W
Ad for YouTube, i like music way more than i do politics so quitting it would be like cutting off my nose to spite my face.

No idea. Never got any notification, but if I hit "Reply" on a post there I just get a message that my posting privileges on that board have been suspended. Same the 2 or 3 times I was temporarily suspended there. Just a PM from the mod to take a 2 week break. No reference to the post that prompted it.
There are a handful of other more liberal posters that have been banned as well.

There have been countless conservatives banned from there as well.

Let me make sure I’m following your logic here…because neither the vaccine nor wearing a mask is 100% effective, they’re worthless?
Are seatbelts worthless because they’re not 100% effective in preventing injury or death in a car accident, or are they still a good idea because they greatly reduce the chance of injury and/or death?

Never said I was. I was responding to questions people have asked. Really couldn't care less I'm banned from the PT board because I had already stopped posting there anyway.

It's the purest echo chamber I personally have witnessed on the internet, but then again I dont go looking for extremist level echo chambers so I'm sure there are worse out there.
If you have an opposing view you will be attacked and eventually banned- people that disagreed with the Qanon/trump assault on the white house were banned if they pushed back against the crazies. (they had an active QAnon thread there that was their most popular & longest running thread if that tells you anything)
They have posts there that will receive hundreds of upvotes and nearly zero downvotes and vice versa. It's definitely not a forum for the educated, or those seeking diversity of thought.
