President Trump Sues Social Media Firms

The crybaby wants to get back his Facebook and Twitter accounts. Why can't he act like a man and accept his defeat with grace? These are private companies and can control who is allowed on their forums.

The are private companies but they have been given extaordinary protections by the Federal government, which they have abused.

He's suing for a violation of his first amendment rights. He knows he can't win, so why is he doing it? To extend the grift. He'll get his followers to pony up more money. With Donald, it's all about the money.

Yes, that is the whole point, not that he lost. If you really want elections to be free from external influences, why would you alow monopolies to censor candidates they don't like and even ban them from their platforms? If these powerful companies were owned by right wing billionaires and they banned Biden becase he lies all the time, the people complaining here about Trump's lawsuit woulod be losing their sh$t.

It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy

Here is one example: new conservative candidates are having a much harder time getting verified on Twitter than Democrats. I don't like the solution of government involvement so that Twitter and Facebook are more equitable, so I don't know how you solve the inherent bias. Other than having a conservative buy the platforms.

Inherent bias??? What a joke from conservatives who think Trump won the election and that Fox is a news station...
