Can twitter ban Donald Trump's Account?

[Uncle]

They can, but they will not: you don't ban the president of the United States,

He isn't wrong though, and you know this... since you replied with a "k".

I have noticed that people who are met with someone who countered their argument and have nothing more to bring to the table then they answer as you have done.

So..... K?

Please read previous comments as this was already touched upon..... that's if you are not lazy

People who make assumptions aren't worth my time. Time is too valuable for that.

I wouldn't expect most people here to understand that though so carry on, as you were...

[Lazuli]

Imagine the shitstorm if they did lol

[Snorkles]

I'm actually not trying to disprove your point. You're not making any point. That's the whole reason why I'm answering, because the stuff you're saying doesn't add up. Did you ever see Milo saying he wants to get banned from Twitter? No? Then you aren't making any point.

In short, try to get in a decent conversation, don't bother answering at all, or just admit you are too stupid or too lazy to read our posts and just answer everything with ''Way to prove my point lads.'' Because that does require some skill indeed, just like all your anti-Trump friends with their crazy arguments.

-''He's just racist''
-''His posts are just flat out wrong''
-''Free speech shouldn't be granted to him when he doesn't agree with me''
-''Way to prove my point lads''

I bet your mommy thinks you did a very good job today. Now go to bed, kiddo. Hope you learn something at school tomorrow.

I waded into a thread, made an off the cuff comment about a victim complex, a factual point about Milo and then you started attributing stuff to me I haven't said.

The fact that a fairly innocuous jib elicited such a response is telling.

For Reference https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...n-the-internet

The pertinent quote for ease:

Milo is excited. This is his night. How does he feel about his suspension?

“It’s fantastic,” he says, “It’s the end of the platform. The timing is perfect.”

He was planning for this. “I thought I had another six months, but this was always going to happen.”

"Omg he promotes hate speech and yadda yadda"

People ask for proof where the hate speech is at

"If you can't see it then you are wacist"

Counter-arguments

"Pssh... I am ignoring you guyz because you make assumptions so whatevs"

[OrcsRLame]

Well back when he was being a hateful shit toward Rosie O Donnel would have been a good reason to ban him (and her too, cause she was egging him on).

Too late now

To be fair, everything Trump said about Rosie "It wasn't 'rape' rape" O Donnel was kind of true.

Thanks for letting us know you agree with white supremacists.

If the white supremacists are for free speech and you're against it, then I would unironically stand against you with the white supremacists. If free speech is evil then I'd rather be evil than good.

[majesta]

what he says shouldn't be protected by free speech, seeing as most of it is either inflammatory or flat out wrong.

How very subjective. What one thinks is hate speech, might not be what another thinks is hate speech. Also if we apply a strict guideline of no inflammatory speech for Twitter then most accounts need to be closed. Twitter is a giant cesspool of inflammatory speech.

[cubby]

Yeah pretty much. The lefties that hate him just scream Racism and bigotry, then make fun of the way he looks, his heritage and his wife.

Yeah, you really haven't been paying any attention at all. And if for some reason you have, then you're diving deep into the willful ignorance. What you described above is ridiculously incorrect.

[Musik-Diversity86]

Since every nation/ organisation has a different opinion on what free speech is - that would be a waste of time wouldn't it

I like how you used a full stop on every word to make it really clear how wrong you are

PSA : Silencing anyone just because you don't like them or what they say IS a free speech issue - thanks for your time.

I could be wrong but it looks like they chose to ignore a lot of what we said and called it quits early

[Musik-Diversity86]

Dystemper is telling the truth but.... I mean your profile pic speaks words

[HumbleDuck]

Why would they? He makes them a ton of money, and it's not like tweeter is a real person with a morality compass, it's a corporation with the sole purpose of making money.

[Gorgodeus]

Silencing anyone just because you don't like them or what they say IS a free speech issue - thanks for your time.

No, it is not. Free speech only applies to public venues, not private ones such as an internet forum. When you actually know what "free speech" means, and what is protected by free speech, get back with us.

[Antius]

They could but it wouldn't be a good idea. That's one hell of a slippery slope.

[Draco-Onis]

Many have asked where he has Violated these ToS and no one has provided any valid proof

Tweeting those videos and some of the white supremacists stuff violates it, twitter had to save face by saying they are making an exception for him after it blew up. But it doesn't matter like I said it is in twitter's best economic interest for him to stay.

[Chinese Bootlickers]

Why would they want to ban their biggest cash cow?

[minteK917]

Then you open up the freedom of speech can of worms

Doesent apply, twitter is not the government.

[Varitok]

right wing economics + liberal social policies are getting more popular, which *kinda* is where Trump lands.

You have to be fucking kidding me, That is probably the most ridiculous shit I have ever read.

Everyone is making vague claims to stuff he did and no one is linking anything to it. If tweeting anything having to do with "white supremacy" gets a ban then almost everyone on twitter gets a ban.

I don't like trump, nor I would of voted for him, but you are effectively saying that millions of Americans are racists too and spreading hatred, because Trump was like that before being elected. You know picking of sort groups of people etc.

If you vote for a bigot, I can't see exactly why you wouldn't be one.

It means you support what the bigot does. It means you agree with doing what it takes to be a bigot. How does that not make you a bigot as well?
