Michelle Obama specifically said she wants Fox News cancelled
Link, please.
And of course it turns out that nothing of the kind took place. Michelle Obama did not say she wants Fox News cancelled.

But did Ajax say "sorry, I was wrong about that. I should have checked before posting such an allegation against a former First Lady"?

Did he heck!!

Ben illustrates a very good example of the double standard the left is implementing with their unchecked coalition of power between the federal government, Silicon Valley, Big Corporations, globalist billionaire oligarchs, and of course the mainstream media.


[26:00]
Here is why I'm so skeptical of these claims about threats to the public, because they are wildly inconsistent, like insanely inconsistent. It turns out the only people who are, quote unquote threats to public peace are precisely the people that the left doesn't like anyway. So let me take what I think is perhaps the best example of this ever. So Keith Boykin is a CNN commentator. So he he tweeted out over the weekend, quote, Imagine the scenario.

[26:26]
Reverend Al Sharpton holds a rally and tells his supporters to take back their country with strength and combat. Then five people die after Black Lives Matter activists stormed the US Capitol. How would Fox News and congressional Republicans respond? This is such an unbelievably great example of how the left just doesn't have it's not that the left has has a double standards, that the left doesn't have the standard. The standard is that if you are a conservative, you are bad and we will hold you accountable for anybody, anything anybody says he actually used Reverend Al Sharpton in an example of what would people do if somebody inciting a riot.

[26:55]
If you're talking about borderline incitement of rioting, Al Sharpton did that twice, two times. He literally did it in Crown Heights in 1991 when he said at a funeral for a black kid who was who was hit by a car driven by a Hasidic Jew, he said if they want to get it on, let him pin on my pin back their yarmulke and come on over to my house like a riot in Crown Heights ensued. An Orthodox Jew, Yankel Rosenbaum, was killed.

[27:21]
Then a few years later, there was a store called Freddy's Fashion Mart. It was not, in fact, owned by Jews. It was in fact, run. It was subleased to a Jew. In any case, he suggested that diamond merchants had invaded the neighborhood. OK, and this resulted in one of the people who was at one of his rallies going and burning Freddie fashion, Mark, ending in the death of at least one person. So what happened?

[27:43]
Al Sharpton, good question. Well, let's see, he ran for president in 2004 on the Democratic side of the aisle. He was visited by every major Democratic candidate this year in order to receive their blessing. He has a show on MSNBC and he gets to comment on stuff like this. So, Keith Boykin, it seems like there is no standard when it comes to people on the left. Bernie Sanders can use rhetoric so incendiary that a person goes and tries to murder congresspeople and that results in him nearly winning the Democratic presidential nomination.

[28:10]
Al Sharpton is the most well respected, quote unquote, civil rights leader. He's a scam artist and a grifter. He's he's one of the most respected civil rights leaders on the left after having participated in rhetoric so incendiary that two riots ensued. And you're telling me that there's there's [no] double standard here.

And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

No I was wrong about attributing the quote to her. And I'm sorry for that error. But it doesn't get around the general purge the left is trying to bring to pass and she's definitely among them.

[19:54]
So here are the comments that got Trump kicked off on Twitter last week. So he was kicked off for promoting the untruth, promoting the lie that he won the election and that it was a huge victory for him and that the and that there was a possibility Congress is going to overturn it. None of that was true. OK, so they suspend him for 12 hours when he comes back. Here's what he tweets. Was this stuff over this? They decided they were going to ban him.

[20:14]
Here are his tweets. They've now been removed because his account has been shut down with its tens of millions of followers. Quote, As I've been saying for a long time, Twitter has gone further and further in banning free speech. And tonight, Twitter employees have coordinated with the Democrats and the radical left in removing my account from their platform to silence me and you, the seventy five million great patriots who voted for me. Twitter may be a private company, but without the government's gift of Section two thirty, they would not exist for long.

[20:37]
I predicted this would happen. We've been negotiating with various other sites. We'll have a big announcement soon. While we also look at the possibility of building out our own platform. In the near future, we will not be silenced. Twitter is not about free speech. They are about promoting a radical left platform or some of the most vicious people in the world are allowed to speak freely. Stay tuned.
OK, I have a question. What exactly is bondable about that one violates Twitter's policies.

[20:56]
Serious question. I have no idea what violates Twitter's policy is there. What they said is that Trump was now exacerbating the possibility of violence with those tweets? Nope, nope. Nothing in those tweets exacerbates the possibility of violence. He literally says there's a there's an alternative out there. Presumably he's referring to parler, which we'll get to in a minute, because this is the truly insane story trumping banned from these various sites. That's kind of wild, considering he's the sitting president of the United States still.

[21:20]
But it's what's happened to parler over the weekend that should scare the living devil out of you, scared the bejesus out of everybody. I mean, it's insane. It's insane what is happening with Parler over the weekend. And so here is a running list of all of the allies that have banned Trump. He read it banned the Sabahat group, Donald Trump, a spokesperson confirmed to Axios on Friday. Twitch disabled Trump's channel, citing the move as a necessary step to protect its community and prevent Twitch from being used to incite further violence, Shopify took down two online stores affiliated with Trump for violating its policies on supporting violence like selling magazines, I guess is now supporting violence.

[21:56]
Twitter announced that they would permanently ban Trump's account. Effective immediately, Google pulled parler, which will get to in just one second. YouTube is accelerating its enforcement of election misinformation and voter fraud claims against Trump and other channels as well. Facebook banned Trump from posting on his Facebook accounts for at least the next two weeks, but mostly indefinitely. Like forever, probably. Instagram banned Trump from posting on his Facebook accounts for at least the next two weeks, but probably forever.

[22:20]
Snapchat able to Trump Snapchat account because they said that the account promotes and spreads hate and incites violence. Tick Tock is a Chinese connected company is removing content violations and redirecting hashtags like Storm, the capital and Patriot Party, to its community guidelines. Apple threatened to remove right wing friendly social media at Parler again. We'll get to parler in just one second because that's the bigger story. Pinterest has been limiting hashtags, and Stripe is no longer no longer going to process payments for Trump's campaign.

[22:47]
Right. Trump's campaign continues to fundraise so they can pay off all of their debts. Stripe and this again, this one's a more dangerous one. Stripe, which is a payment processing center, has decided it is no longer going to process payments to Trump's campaign. So we've seen a bunch of social media companies say they no longer want to host Donald Trump's content and do so in coordination. Well, whenever there's that sort of coordination, it's scary. Hey, by the way, I said this about people who I think are significantly more outlying than Trump.

[23:13]
And I said this when they ban, they decided all at once to ban Miloje. They decided all at once again, Alex Jones. I don't like any of those people, as you know from the show. Like at all. At all. At all. At all. But let's be frank about this, Twitter's standards here are extraordinarily, extraordinarily inconsistent. Hey, Twitter will allow Kamala Harris to literally fundraise for people who are in jail for writing.

[23:34]
Twitter will allow people to make death threats on a routine basis against people who are of right wing, of right wing orientation.

[23:42]
I know this because I was literally the person targeted the most by antiemetic death threats on Twitter. In 2016, I received thousands and thousands and thousands of them. And Twitter didn't shut down all those accounts. I Twitter didn't shut down accounts that were promoting those accounts. So the standard that Twitter is still putting up and allowing to to allow it to remain up, tweets from the Iranian government calling for genocide against Jews in Israel, tweets from the Chinese government touting its own sterile forced sterilization of women in in Pyongyang.

[24:12]
OK, there are no standards here if there are standards and from violated it. That's one thing there are no standards is the reality. The standards just do not exist. And it's going to it's going further than that. The PGA of America moved to ban the 20 22 PGA Championship from Trump National Golf Club. So the idea now is that all of the employees of Trump National who have nothing to do with Trump's political career and all the people at Trump National like the groundskeepers and the and the genders and the people who work and who work the club over there, all those people are going to lose out because they've decided that you can't even do business with any club that Trump owns because of what happened on Wednesday.

[24:50]
Now, let me start from this perspective, as I said last week, you are to blame for incitement. If you tell people to go do violence, that's when you are to blame for incitement. But the standard does not hold for the left. If you're Bernie Sanders and you say over and over and over again that Republicans are literally killing your grandmother because of their failure to support Medicare for all. And then one of your supporters goes and attempts to murder dozens of Republican congresspeople and nearly shoots one to death.

[25:14]
And Steve Scalise is not responsible for that. Bernie Sanders, he's responsible for increasing the temperature. He's not responsible for the for the insane person who decide to shoot people based on that. Let's say that you are the president of the United States and you say over and over and over and over again that the police in the United States are systemically racist, that they are targeting black people for destruction. And then let us say that a supporter of Black Lives Matter goes and murders six police officers in Dallas.

[25:40]
You know, he's not responsible for that. Barack Obama, he didn't want people to do that. He didn't call for people to do that. And yet the idea here is that Trump is responsible, like directly responsible, so much so that no one can ever do business with any business associated with him. He should be banned from all of his accounts, not on the basis of violating policy, but on the vague basis that he is a threat to the public peace.

'Antiemetic' means 'Against vomiting'.

Let's see, we have previously had 'antisemetic', which if it means anything would (from its Greek roots) mean something like 'against signs', perhaps in some contexts 'against miracles'.

Dear posters, the word you want for someone who is against Jews is

A N T I S E M I T I C

Like I said, it refers to people who are against ('anti') the descendants of Noah's son Shem, hence Shemites, hence Semites.

Three 'i's and only one 'e'. Is that so hard to get right? Practise it a few times, maybe?

Let me states this a little a better. I agree with Ben Shapiro that the mainstream media, Silicon valley etc. suppression of information and bias was the biggest voter fraud that went on in this election. And that's kind of fits more to my point when you look at the biased manner in which Facebook, Twitter, etc. treat conservative speech but let other speech that has led to violence go uncensored.

Do you disagree with Ben Shapiro on the double standard displayed in censoring or not censoring Al Sharpton? That's what I'd like to hear your take on.

Perhaps ajax is not an optometrist, but is actually a supermodel with tendencies towards anorexia, and other posters were concerned for his/her dieting habits.

ETA: Looks like this was Shapiro’s statement. Sorry, ajax. I’m betting that you enjoy burgers too much to engage in any unusual diet practices. : D

I don't think he was able to catch the fraud enough to prove it in court.
That sounds as if you believe that if all of the supposed fraud was discovered and purged, that Trump would have won the election. Am I interpreting your statement correctly?
