>> I know it's like a broken record but that's another lane problem. Looks like i-node is not the only one who doesn't get that. The government is in one lane wrt free speech and everything else is in another.

It isn't a "lane" problem at all. It is only a Constitutional issue when GOVERNMENT breaks the law (as it did during the election of 2020). As I indicated, WR's mom can do as she pleases in her house, so clearly I understand and respect the "lanes" that involved.

But it is also a fact that that government manipulation of entities like Twitter and Facebook, to control speech, is NOT legal, period, end of story. It isn't okay to have FBI calling Twitter up and making demands on its employees -- even if they are being cooperative -- in efforts to control speech.

So, there are different lanes, but the gross violations of our Constitutional rights by government should have landed some FBI agents in prison, if there were any justice. They were part of the Great Cheat of 2020 that led to this fucking train wreck we've had for the last four years. And that could possibly threaten us for the next four.

I continue to be amazed that you and some others are so blind as to the direction this country is headed if Trump isn't re-elected.
