I appreciate all the replies to my comment, it shows that a lot of people see me going against the grain around here, which is a good thing. The mob is here shouting me down. Thanks.
Either way, CNN is propaganda pretty much all the time, I've never said otherwise. They are the media arm of the government and I don't trust them or their motives at all so it's strange that you would assume that I liked them in any way. I'm simply pointing out the hypocrisy, regardless of what extreme you lie on. This is pretty much a right wing blog these days with the majority of traffic accumulating in certain specific thread types, the right wing variety. I could easily make the same argument against the other side as well but I'd be preaching to ther choir around here so I address the predominate mindset on these boards.

I don't have a problem with them banning users that post what it considered offensive or hate speech.
The problem is that some kinds of hate is tolerated, say against whites, Christians, conservatives, Trump, Trump supporters etc.
They need to be more evenhanded.

Yet here she is all over this website being discussed and her words being heard. She has hardly been silenced, if anything this will make her voice heard louder.
Faux outrage. The same could easily apply to the left on any number of issues including this one.

I'm currently banned from Facebook for saying that Trump supporters are white trash.

I am totally offended them social media nazis have censored you like that. I ain't joking. White Trash is a generalized stereotype but I damn sure defend your right to call me that.
Rare that they censored a lefty though.

It wasn't too long ago that homosexuals and women were oppressed in Christian majority nations...Hell, christians in Russia still oppress too.
You can't bundle all muslims into the same coin. Many muslims don't practice extremes traditions.
I think the main issue is that muslims get stereotyped as hardcore religious nuts. All religions were like this and it just takes social growth for it to change.

There's no conspiracy against right wing "activists" or # talkers on social media. They'll ban anyone who gets reported by anyone for anything if they decide it's too offensive. That's if their bots don't automaticly detect it.

Meanwhile Trump supporters on here act like they'd celebrate the day that the media is banned from the White House except for Fox News, Breitbart and the like.
If you guys are so angry about this then why not petition the president to close his account in protest? Oh, that's right, Twitter is your direct connection to Trump outside of the media, silly me for thinking y'all would be consistent in your faux outrage.

Exactly, it's a business, a business that only cares about the bottom line. People that think it's a big conspiracy to silence their political views aren't looking at the whole picture.
