    I missed the part where the government imposed this "restriction". Not to mention this nugget from your own link. They didn't remove or delete the content....

    Users who wish to ensure that they continue to see all tweets from the President, Donald Trump Jr. and @DRUDGE_REPORT will have to manually disable their content filter. This can be done by unchecking the box marked “hide sensitive content” in your safety settings.


    But scream about censorship and fake news.

    Twitter, FB, youtube, google have reached too big to fail in the social media space, insofar as they hold a clear monopoly over the intellectual traffic moving through social media and the interwebs.

    I'm not for more Govt restriction, so down't twist, but if you can't see the need for political impartiality among these social media goliaths, then you need to sit on a rusty conical cheese grater.

    Wednesday 2PM.

    Derek: Oh wow, no clouds today. The sun is out.

    HondoFS: No it's not.

    Derek: What? Just look up at the sky. Pure blue, not a cloud in sight.

    HondoFS: You'd like me to do that, wouldn't you?

    Derek: Huh?

    HondoFS: Just more of your fake news. Don't you dare try to shove your pro-Trump agenda down MY throat!
    Cool story bro.

    Criticize these companies for their contradictory policies and enforcement, but bringing freedom of speech/FA issues into it is a bad look. There are progressives who've advocated for public funding for newspapers like NYT. It's bad there and it's bad here. It's a couple click away from nationalizing media.

    Derek ban this stupid fucking faggot. There are plenty of liberals here that are reasonable to converse with and aren’t spamming the boreds. He hasn’t donated a dime. IP nuke this piece of shit loser.

    Because, as Derek will attest, there are consequences for being a shit poaster.

    Speaking for the libs I like Hondo! He triggers the cuckservitve snowflakes. He does all the retarded shit posting I don’t have time to do. I do wonder how he has time for all this, probably living off the government. Classic lib (and every dumbass conservative state that is a net taker). Classic!


    Fuck it I’m shitfaced.

    This is true

    The market will react and already is.

    Out of curiosity, I was wondering how Twitter treated the Huffington Post. Here it is. You guys are funny with how you freak out about Twitter. For reals. Like you can't find another way to read drudge report bullshit. Or just click the button that says unhide.

    How does that compare to what the Taki Tiki paid for advertising?

    Spam is a form of advertising.

    George Soros'/Clinton Machine's pockets are BOTTOMLESS.

    Exactly.

    We've established he's not one of "us". The poasts on other boreds on HCH are even more painfully awkward that the shit trotted out in the Tug

    Wikileaks proved the Clinton/Soros/Ruski machine actively infiltrated internet message boreds to spread their message.

    Going back to Unleased, he is now the 3rd political-troll this community has encountered. The long-timers will remember @bushmolestor and @smole. The difference with this shit-head and the other two is he stayed after the election.

    His posting routine is predictable and right on tim, every tim. So predictable, I'm confident I could outline the manual that dictates his posting repertoire.





    Pay DJ a fair advertising dollar or GTFO.

    Either you can afford to pay the advertising dollar, or you're being subsidized by food stamps.
