    I think Jack should hire Bernie to be the Arbiter of Truth at Twitter.

    @TheKobeStopper already has his application in for that position.

    Real classical liberals have been saying this all along. No true supporter of civil liberties would ever be okay with a small group of tech billionaires unilaterally deciding who gets a platform, and in effect, exercise their free speech.

    Is Bernie a classical liberal?

    Private business is what I'm hearing

    Let it play out. Twitter needs Trump and the ban helps Trump IMO

    Win win

    Biden team probably already wishes Trump was a human shield more than he is

    Biden should EO the Twatters into allowing Trump back.

    Then Biden could really screw up the constitution while the press is distracted

    In the tech billionaires defense, they were strong armed to do so. The mob won.

    I don’t really give a shit and life goes on, but Trump shouldn’t have been banned.

    When you cave to the 1% 'woke' mob and their bots, you lose.

    The unintended consequences of their arrogance and fear will come back to bite them in the ass. It may take a week, it may take a month, it may be at the mid term elections. But trying to appease the extreme and act as arbiter of truth doesn't sit well with Joe Public other than useful idiots like the Ostrich Boy and the CoronaBros.

    This is the new New Coke. Somebody thinks this wokeness is edgy and cool and they determine it's 'better' for the consumer. They forget who got them to where they are and if the demand isn't being met ethically, the market will find something that will.
