  Yes but the right took up the phrase "Snowflake" as an insult, and without ironic intent apparently.

  Re: Re:

  Who says they're only supposed to be enforcing immigration law against violators who are threats to national security or public safety? Supposedly, they are targeting Mexicans because they are all rapists and a profound threat. (Per El Cheetos' false statements.) However most of the people in the US illegally are Canadian, eh? Also, not much of a threat. So anytime you "Crack down on those illegals" remember el Cheetos is building the wall on the wrong border.

  Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re:

  I don't exactly see your point. Facebooks is a company. It's not an ISP. It has has an IPO so it is "Publicly Traded." That means you can own part of it if you'd like. Are all your posts being downvoted? Since you are one AC of many, the other readers can't tell one AC from another. Sounds like that is your real complaint. TD fought a lawsuit against the liar Shiva over the right to publish stories critical of him, including calling him a liar. That doesn't mean TD and FB can't block people for being asshats. Certainly doesn't mean that you won't get downvoted to oblivion if you are being a troll.

  Re:

  I believe that when people sneak into this country to steal the blessings of liberty Steal the blessings of liberty? What kind of coolaid are you drinking there? Dishonest leaders can taint our liberty. Are you afraid there isn't enough liberty to go around? Can you measure it? Have you experienced less liberty recently?

  When you make fun of conservatives they don't just meltdown, they go to pieces so fast you might get hit be the shrapnel.

  Oh damn, I fact checked El Cheetos - that must be "Proof of bias."

  Simple Fix!

  All twitter needs to do is put a little checkbox on the form you fill out to purchase an advertisement.

  "Is this a political ad?"

  If the box is checked, you can't proceed with purchasing the advertisement. There you go! Everything has a simple solution if you just nerd harder.

  Re: So yes

  So in addition to legal filings, we can write articles about the problem that shed light on the abuse of power. And let our elected officials know that this we don't approve.

  Like TIm is doing.

  TD is open to the public like a supermarket or a movie theater. Anyone can come in but you can't bring your dog.
  And since TD allows Anonymous Cowards, even Blue Balls can keep coming back again and again even if they don't have anything to say.

  Just FYI...

  Trump could use executive powers to declare national emergency and suspend elections. That would be "Legal" and therefore constitutional.

  Re: Re:

  Those "Ultra conservatives" are Very Fine People and it's wrong to ban them just because they promote "Racial Purity" and "Killing all the Jews." Oh wait - it's not wrong to kick them off a privately owned service and make them squat over at Stormfront. I keep getting Nazi's and the Alt-Right mixed up! No way the YouTube Censors couldn't keep that straight...
