It's a shame that corporations are denying a platform of free speech to those they disagree with.
But censorship is the tool of cowards and tyrants.
We just don't know which one Youtube is yet.
Doesn't ATS ban people for posting white supremist stuff?
The work around is to post Anti-White Supremacist stuff.
This country has rights for everyone right now.
You have the right to say whatever you want, but you don't always get the venue of your choice. Such is the world.
White supremists and the extreme left (trans, feminists, take your pick ect.) are fighting for equity, not equality.
Both parties have whored out sentient beings for establishments. Reap what they sow and all of that.
Anyone still with either side is supporting what they fight.
On the contrary. To post White Supremacist stuff you basically have to build your own venue, meanwhile, at the Legion of Doom, they figured out that leftists get off on Anti-White Supremacist content, not to mention rabid hypocrisy, so now that is en vogue and widespread en masse whatever.
Isnt "progress" the shizzy?!

So In the Jim Crow south
As long as I can show police arrested one white man, and not every black man, it must mean there was no bias?
What a joke

Nah, but you got data to show number of blacks vs whites arrested and you have historical context.
Now produce the data that show any platform bans one political leaning more than the next.
I'll wait.
My results make it difficult to take claims of political neutrality seriously. Of 22 prominent, politically active individuals who are known to have been suspended since 2005 and who expressed a preference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, 21 supported Donald Trump.

Itās just obvious to all watching
I began my analysis by compiling a list of every prominent individual or political party known to have been banned from Twitter since its founding. As a proxy for prominence, I used the criterion of whether the ban was important enough to warrant coverage in mainstream news sources.
Not everyone is convinced. A June, 2018 Pew poll found that 72% of Americans believe that social media companies censor views they donāt like, with members of the public being four times more likely to report a belief that such institutions favor liberals over conservatives than the opposite. Podcasters Joe Rogan and Sam Harris both received backlash from their respective audiences for not pressing Dorsey hard enough on the censorship issue.
Of course, the existence of this disparity does not prove that Twitter is actively discriminating against Trump supporters. Perhaps conservatives are simply more likely to violate neutral rules regarding harassment and hate speech. In such case, the observed data would not serve to impugn Twitter, but rather conservatives themselves.
I found it difficult to establish the extent to which any of the suspended individuals or groups clearly supported Republicans over Democrats or vice versa. Classifying them along the left-right axis is also problematic, as there are some figures that neither side would be eager to claim. Most prominent individuals who were suspended did express a preference in the 2016 election, however.

How would you recommend I violate the rules?
Call someones mouth Putinās c holster?
Tell conservatives to assault democrats with beverages?
Make a video showing a liberal being shot?
Dox and spread edited footage to smear liberal teenagers?
Oh thatās right, when itās reversed and liberals do that itās magical it against their policy

Not a single source of objective data or primary sources in either one of those opinions. Most of your sources quote themselves.
I really ought to stop being lazy and make a 'news' website for a segment of the population because you mother#ers eat this # up.
