Trump threatens to 'close' down social media platforms after Twitter fact checks claims on mail-in voting fraud
He claims social media is trying to "totally silence conservatives."

President Donald Trump on Wednesday morning threatened that Republicans will try to close down social media platforms after Twitter, for the first time, added a fact check to his tweets, specifically ones concerning his unsubstantiated claims about mail-in voting fraud.

Trump said, in a tweet not naming any platforms, that "Republicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservative voices. We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen."


Republicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservatives voices. We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen. We saw what they attempted to do, and failed, in 2016. We can’t let a more sophisticated version of that....

Trump should introduce regulations for these social media platforms and claim it to be everyone’s basic right to use social media freely and make it more difficult for these leftist mediums to censor conservative views.

He will continue to do nothing about it because he's all talk no action.

Twatter made a potentially fatal mistake yesterday.

By fact-checking the President of the United States (by a propaganda pushing Washington comPost no less) Twatter has legally established themselves as a publisher - not a platform. They fell for the trap.

They have now lost protections put in place by Congress if legally challenged - and now they will be.

I can't wait for the great Twatter purge! Watching @Jack writhe in agony is pure gold! That prick is already on the hook for lying to congress about shadow-banning conservatives, and then proceeding to shadow-ban Ted Cruz.

Oh yeah, there's also that "interfering in elections" thing.

They went one step too far yesterday.

Platform, or Publisher?

Regulation of these platforms and media outlets is required.
Legal standards the must adhere to in order to protect all sides.

And its their own doing that it is required because they cannot be trusted to operate without, as has been proven.

Accountability, thee left fears and hates it and the right prefers it. Takes the bias out of the equation.

If they aren't doing anything wrong, why would they fear regulation? (Forgive the use of leftie talk.)
