Comment Re:If it looks like a Nazi, and walks like a Nazi (Score 4, Informative) 270

Even The Guardian (a clearly left wing journal), acknowledges that one of the BLM co-founders describes herself proudly as a "trained Marxist". Of course that being The Guardian, they go ahead and try to find some excuse on why that shouldn't be a problem for anyone. But the fact remains in any case: https://www.theguardian.com/co...

Actually is more like "welcome to this week", isn't it? I didn't know they went ahead and banned it now, but I confirm that account was up several days after they banned Trump.

I guess that having an account literally calling for the destruction of a country for years, and then banning Trump for saying something that can be interpreted, under a very specific light, as asking for a coup, was too much hypocrisy for even Twitter (as a company) to bear.

Comment Remember Cambridge Analytical? (Score 2) 355

I still remember the outrage at Cambridge Analytical (and I was one of the outraged) and all the calls to heavily control, legislate what these platforms can do and even break then up. Now, a lot of those outraged, are praising those same companies and clapping that they have become judge, jury and executioner.

Since I'm not an hypocrite, I maintain my position now: these platforms must stop doing whatever they please. What about you?

Comment Pff, like Merkel knows anything about censorship.. (Score 1) 536

I mean, why mind the warnings from someone that actually grew up in a communist regimen, over the insightful words from a bunch of people that never knew adversity, writing on social networks while drinking their latte and eating their avocado toast? Just cancel Merkel, she’s just another fascist Trump supporter.

This isn't whataboutism, this isn't apologising someone because of other people's wrong actions. This is a clear comparison between people following a leader that downplays the virus, a a leader that doesn't, and observing that both groups behave the same. So yeah, the question remains, facing the evidence, how do you logically claim that Trump is at fault for his supporters behaviour?

Should the society as a whole have the right to refuse treatment of a disease if someone gets obese out of choice? Because if we are talking about the pressure in the health system that's due to personal choices, obesity and lack of exercise are way above COVID.

Then again, look at the footage of Biden's victory celebration parties all across the county and specifically on Times Square, and try to logically explain that Trump words to "his supporters" have anything to do with people following socially distancing or not: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
