Are you kidding me? IME it’s the right that’s constantly pissing and moaning about being censored. That’s like Alex Jones’ biggest claim to fame.
Considering people ACTUALLY WERE banned here, if even for a short time, can you show even one example of this happening to a right wing journalist on X, with similarly no explanation? No pretending this isn’t a real issue because they were unbanned, really try here.
The comments from when that happened a few years ago? Is that was you’re referring to?
Because I’m referring to most of the commenters in this thread having a big 'ol hate circ jerk.
In my head, being on the left used to mean compassion and tolerance, but it’s clearly the same spitefulness as the right. I’m beginning it think this is just how tribalism in general works, doesn’t matter what team you’re on
I’ve seen right wingers, in person, call for the absolute removal of trans folk from public spaces. When one side is doing THAT, I think it’s reasonable for the other side to get a tad combative.
Bear in mind, whacky right wingers are pictured all the fucking time open carrying large firearms. Couple that with the pervasive thought that every LGBT person is a pedophile (another VERY common right wing talking point), and suddenly it’s a little scary to be gay or trans in a red state.
This shit is so fucked. People take no accountability for the shit that their party says, no matter what side they’re on, and then get all confused when opponents have issues with the heinous shit they hear constantly.
Nazis are bad. Homophobes are bad. Motherfuckers who want to control the bodily autonomy of every woman are bad. How hard is that?
The reinstatement came after notable users such as George Galloway, a former member of the British Parliament, called out Musk for banning the accounts.
They’re all back online now. I mean I dislike the ultra wealthy as much as the next guy but y’all got hate boners
They’re all back online now because of articles like this.

If a couple of years ago “by chance” prominent people on the right were temporarily banned, what do you think the reading would be?
TBF they complain about being censored even if they haven’t been banned, so they’d simply keep complaining about being censored. No change at all.

You seem to have misread my comment.
Ooh, that I have. Whoops!
Sorry, I’m currently on a cruise and near perpetually drunk.
