Just as the left tried and failed (for good reason) to have liberal talk radio. the right tried and failed (for good reason) to have popular social media platforms.

I get the whining of the right wingers. They can't compete on a large scale so they cry about things being unfair.
I think that's what you guys liked to call snowflakes.

Actually many of the more conservative and right wing channels were banned not because they were promoting racism or anything like that. It is because their channels and messaging was getting popular. So instead of trying to debate these people the left and democrats started advocating for censorship instead. It was the left's and democrats ideas that were and still are getting less popular.

There are also groups like the SPLC and ADL that have falsely smeared some people and groups because those groups political views were getting popular and because they were also effective in combating the leftist/humanist/transhumanist/Marxist agenda.

Calling Liz Warren ‘Pocohantas’ is racist? She brought that upon herself. It looks like that source is very biased and not entirely honest. Trump’s ‘Muslim ban’ was pandering to the bigots but I don’t see other indicators he’s racist.

It wasn't a Muslim ban. I believe those same countries were banned under the Obama admin as well.

The left often resorts to false smears of racism, misogyny, Islamophobia, and antisemitism in attacks on their political opponents.

I don't think it's pandering to look at the sources of hotbeds of terrorism and say we aren't letting people from those areas in because we can't tell friend from foe. That's just common sense. The progressive view seems to be that you have to let everyone in and if/when they pull the next 9/11 we should just accept it without judgement as part of the price we pay for living in a free society and if there is judgment it has to be aimed at us (i.e. what horrible things did we do to them, or did our ancestors do to their ancestors, to make them do this to us?). It's a narcissistic view of the world to think that everything that happens is because of us and our culture.

Every leader in the free world needs to be saying the same damn thing. If there is a WWIII it will be because of Putin. He has to go and who better to say it than the President of the United States.

Huner the heads of state of NATO countries shouldn’t be saying the quiet part out loud. It plays right into Putin’s agenda. Yes he needs to go but the heads of state don’t need to be saying dumb ****.

It was called a Muslim ban because almost all the affected countries were majority Muslim. If I remember correctly Trump extended and expanded it and made a lot of noise about doing so.
Yes the left does indeed try to smear the opposition as does the right. American politics is generally not an honorable vocation.

It wasn't a "Muslim" ban under Obama and wouldn't be one under Biden either. Even with the same exact countries on the list.

Reports along with graphic photos and videos of Ukrainian Forces torturing Russian POWs. Throughout this affair, Ukraine, not Russia as the fake news media tries to portray, have been the ones more likely to commit war crimes.

No one is hiding behind censorship, snowflakes only make that accusation when their propaganda is exposed and silenced.

Nonsense; the NY Post breaking the laptop story was propaganda? ANY credible organization that termed it Russian propaganda could have verified authenticity as the Post and other conservative media did. Hunter's own business partner openly verified the emails in televised interview. The Biden allegations of sexual assault/misconduct were no less viable than those levied against Kavanaugh; why were women suddenly less believable? "CRT is not being taught except to Harvard law students" the left laughingly assured until the evidence was shoved down their throat and then unleashed DOJ and FBI attack dogs on domestic terrorist parents. The virus occurred naturally in an open meat market. We're not taking the Trump medicine. Entering a 7th year of Russia collusion - even attempting to resurrect Alfa Bank in Oct 2021 - when the entire construct was a Russian, Clinton, DNC propaganda bucket toted by the letter agencies Democrats once had enough sense to trust only with verification. "Biden will govern as a moderate" even as he swore to be the most leftist president ever. BLM isn't an anti-American, Marxist org. and police are hunting black people, but we never said defund police.

Contrast that with every Trump propaganda smear they DID push. Your political spectrum is leprotic with propaganda.

Biden is president for one reason; leftist media ran interference for him and blacked out negative information. Media Research Center's poll found that up to 16% of Biden voters in swing states would not have voted for him but for the blackout. Even if none of them voted for Trump, Biden is having ice cream in his basement instead of the WH. Nearly weekly, Americans are acknowledging their mistake in polling.

Putin heard 'loud and clear' call for regime change after Biden said he 'cannot remain in power': expert
The cleanup shows the White House is not fully in control of the message, she said.
"I would be interested in knowing whether that was in his TelePrompTer or not, because people who create his speeches have a responsibility for the American people to minimize security threats," Koffler said. "And if they put something like that in his TelePrompTer, that means those people are incompetent."

That's because they're all Obama-era retreads, dangerous children in adult bodies and position of power.
They can't be this wrong on national security by accident.

Biden is a walking talking mistake. His election may be one of the root causes to this conflict because the menace in Russia saw weakness in the West. His team of bureaucrat decision makers appear awful. The fact that they had to issue a statement after Biden speaks shows Biden is not in charge or doesn't have a good grasp of the facts. Neither perception is good and Russia was able to use his words as additional propaganda.

Even more disturbing are reports that Putin and Xi apparently discussed this during the Olympics and it was agreed to wait. Our administration is too feekless and slow to the draw to get out in front of this. The Ukrainians should've had what they needed much earlier if not for lack of foresight which seems to be a common theme.

The fact is this is the most volatile situation in the world in decades and I don't think it is surprising it's happening on this guy's watch. They took Crimea and Donbas the last time he was in the WH as a stay out of the way stooge.

The number of "I told you so's" are about 81M. To think we got right under 3 more years of this is absolutely scary. Even scarier to think we can't put the 25th amendment on the guy and he must stay alive because of the unqualified gender and racial based VP they placed would lead this country off a cliff and behind her is 80 year old Pelosi. Think about it - this team has had the WH and Congress for about 14 months and the number of large crisis they have caused or been involved in are mounting.

That's an ignorant take. At least you're consistent

You invaded my country. Destroyed my home. My town. Sent my family to another country. Yea. So hard to imagine this torture.

Again, how can Russia commit war crimes, they aren’t at war.
