It happened last month. Did this get covered here?
Godfrey Elfwick Banned From Twitter
Mason Cooper
Justin Jenkins
The only people who care are on twitter, retard.
Nathaniel Morales
It's just one step in the overall silencing process, which includes this guy, Daily Stormer, Alex Jones, Gavin McInnes, etc. Doing it all at once would get more people's attention. So instead they do it bit by bit so people don't notice.
Hunter Lewis
RIP twitter trolls
had a great thing going right up to the election.
Andrew Richardson
seeing breitshart pretend to be hip to memes is fucking embarrassing. 30 year old boomer epitomized.
Connor Barnes
Serves him right. If right wingers wanted a micro-blogging platform they shouldn't have sat on their hands while the progressive left was building one. The most retarded thing a conservative can do is complain when they get kicked of a leftist owned and operated platform. What did you stupid fat fuckers expect?
Jaxson Long
>they finally figured out godfrey was fucking with them
took long enough
Robert Robinson
Yup. The election showed leftists that free speech is a threat to them, so they shut it down. Apparently they think it will stop the right from winning more elections. I think they are right.
Luke Murphy
Maybe we didn't realize that leftist ideas were so weak they had to be protected from dissent. To be fair, leftists didn't realize this either until Donald Trump was elected.
Andrew Parker
will the leftists get bored and quit when they have no one left to argue with?
Luke Williams
Not likely. They will continue spouting their theories to gain new converts and sway elections. It will be a lot easier for them when there is no one to challenge them.
Owen Hall
They are not weak, leftist ideas comprise the dominant ideology and it infects all the kids because it is so omnipresent.
Actual freedom of speech is impossible. The dominant ideology will always bully the weaker one.
Joseph Jackson
Ann Coulter is next? Who else?
Brayden Hughes
An idea that has to censor dissent to win debates is weak.
Nathan Ramirez
Reminder that this is what everybody said would happen if Hilary was elected. So much for Trump taking on the left huh?

They censor because they are in a position of power, not because they are afraid of weak arguments. The left doesn't care about facts or logic and will never shift their position.
For example its a fact that trans women are mentally ill men in wigs. But that doesn't stop the left from insisting that they are women and punishing anyone who says otherwise.
Jack Reyes
If fascism is so obviously wrong, it should be easy to prove this, and so censorship is not necessary.
Or, if fascism is not so obviously wrong that it is easy to prove, then it shouldn't be censored.
Only definitely wrong ideas should be censored, but definitely wrong ideas don't need to be censored because they can easily be proven wrong.
That's the paradox of censorship: either your idea is so obviously wrong it doesn't need to be censored, or it's not obviously wrong enough to justify censorship.
Aaron Ortiz
you're both correct. the key is demonstrating this to the people in between the partisans or who are open to dialogue.
Blake Green
Hunter Moore
Trump is president of the US, not of Twitter, you emukiwi.
Connor Rogers
They censor because they don't want to loser power, which suggests that they think they will lose power if people are free to disagree with them. If an idea will lose adherents if people are allowed to disagree with it, then your idea is weak.
The reason they got power in the first place was because they controlled the dissemination of information in the media and schools. In this case, there was no challenge to their ideas, so the weakness was not apparent. It was only with the spread of social media, and the democratization of speech, which allowed disagreement with the dominant ideas, that the weakness of their ideas became apparent, and now they are in bunker mode.
Strong ideas that can stand on their own don't have to go to bunker mode when challenged.

>Godfrey Elfwick
literally the only person on Twitter I followed. epic lolz
Carter Watson
it was really a lady
Ryder Martin
you can't ban an institution ffs
i don't know if you've noticed, but they don't actually argue. they block potential arguers and virtue signal amongst themselves.
