    Where...when...did "you all SEE censorship"?
    Do you believe that not allowing the spread of outright lies is nothing but "censorship"?
    There's nothing wrong with voicing your own person opinions...
    but deliberately spreading misinformation should be stopped and is not the same as censorship of opinion.

    To me it was someone who understands the reality of actual life. You will in fact go to work the next day. You will live your life. You will love others. Whether or not you choose to be happy is obviously not guaranteed. I choose to be happy.

    It's sad to see Trumpists have forgotten the goal is to strengthen America and its institutions, not troll fellow Americans.

    They're not refusing to report on Democrats....it's just that Democrats are mostly boring...so there's nothing to report.
    On the other hand..tRump and his gang are bunch of drama-queens...always seeking attention

    We just agree to disagree. To me it sounds like you chose to be apathetic about how the world is changing for the worse.

    Should your grandkids keep smiling when global warming causes millions to starve as more and more land becomes to dry to sustain farming?

    I choose not to have these things prevent me from living my life, going to work and loving others. I'm sorry these things impact you to the point it prevents you from living your life.

    they refuse to report the news about the Democrats
    False premise....you can't "live your life"....you ARE life.

    Now, think about how much tyranny we would have with no government regulating the free market? Or government preventing monopolies? There would be ONE Google that would control every aspect of your life. Think about that next time you cry about government tyranny.

    Twitter and Facebook. September, 2020.

    1. - point me to an elected official who represents a huge chunk of our population who gets to decide what’s true and what’s a lie.
    2. - silencing opposition is censorship.

    Russia has Rospotrebnadzor. They censor the internet to prevent the spread of disinformation. In Russia that agency gets to decide what Russian consumers get to see online.
    Ask any Russian why they always re-elect Pootin and they’ll tell you - there is no one else to pick.
    Oh, and Russia does have elections regularly.

    Is that the kind of a democracy you want the US to have? Russia has “United Russia” party that monopolized their social media and mass media. We have Democratic Party that is literally doing the exact same thing!

    If Trump wins, democratic governors are going to put us all under COVID house arrest for the remainder of their terms as punishment.

    That is correct. What we don't see: With all of our grievances, there are a majority of people on this planet who live happy everyday lives under political circumstances that are MUCH worse than what we have it in the US, no matter which party s in power.

    More hyperbolic fear mongering. Why would you think governors would kill their economies (and tax revenues), if not necessary? What I expect governors to do (and most would do it): Locally shut down if covid gets out of control. Open up if control is regained. That's exactly what the leaders of my university did. It's not always a yes or no answer.

    Correct, it’s not true especially given that what is being claimed hasn’t occurred because as you know the future hasn’t happened yet.

    Only marginally hyperbolic. They will let BLM and the democrats run wild in the streets looting and burning. Everybody else will have to sit at home in a mask waiting for the looting/burning party to arrive.
