Somebody just made a great point. All the screaming about unfair! Elon Musk buying Twitter is unfair! It's all coming from one side. 100% of the complaints are from one side. If it's truly unfair the complaints will be coming from all sides and they are not. The one side that loves bias, that loves discrimination, that loves control, is the one complaining. It's the Lefties. Elon Musk wants to reinstate fairness, everybody should be heard from fairly. To the Lefty's free speech sets them back decades. You hear them saying it all the time that censorship is a good thing. The very thing this country was founded on they think is evil. These are amazing times we are living in. If the Left was not made up of mostly egomaniacal out of touch snowflakes, we would be in trouble.

It’s become very clear that a certain subset of righties thinks “free speech” means “being able to say racist, transphobic, or anti-Semitic comments without repercussions from anybody.”

Of course, the first amendment only deals with the government censoring speech, but this subset of righties is either too dumb or too ignorant to accept that.

They think it is the end of the world. They will soon be calling it "white supremacy."

Unexpected retirement.

Quote:
As Nicholas James Morgan-Derosier, a landscaper accused of possessing child pornography, sat in a North Dakota jail in August 2021, he texted with people on the outside. Among them: one of the most powerful senators in the North Dakota legislature, according to jail records obtained by the news outlet Forum of Fargo-Moorhead.

Now Holmberg, the state’s longest-serving senator, who was first elected more than four decades ago, has announced his resignation.

“Recent news stories have become a distraction for the important work of the legislative assembly during its interim meetings,” Holmberg said in a statement to The Washington Post. “I want to do what I can, within my power, to lessen such distractions.”

He said he would step down June 1.

You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

They already are because Elon Musk is white. It's fine that billionaires own the Washington Post, and Facebook and they are white. But Elon Musk cannot own Twitter because he's a white billionaire. Do these people even think before they speak? It's fine that a white guy, Jeff Zucker, ran CNN, that was not white supremacy

On a side note new poll out that shows Americans believe the country is now more divided than it was under Donald Trump. This is yet another Biden failure because he promised us over and over did he would unite the country like never before. What a joke.

I saw somewhere yesterday that Twitter generates about as much income per year as the Olive Garden or something.

Why are people making such a big deal out of something that is really pretty insignificant in most people’s lives?

I won’t be deleting it. It’s a good source for breaking news, comedy, and rightie tears.
