Not the same thing.

 

[Isidore]

Trump's lawsuit alleged that YouTube prevented him from "exercising his constitutional right of free speech" by banning him indefinitely from the platform.

Damn, I didn't even know YouTube was a department of the government...

 

[Pepperdoodle]

Not the same thing.

Never said they were exactly the same thing, but...
Trump was censored from youtube for a couple of years, and Kimmel was censored for a couple of days.
So of course not exactly the same thing.

 

[Mycroft]

Damn, I didn't even know YouTube was a department of the government...

That's because it's not.

My question to you is why would you think it was?

 

[BirdinHand]

I’m sorry you don’t seem to grasp how wildly different this situation is from Kimmel.

But


Go team MAGA I guess?


How’s the score work for all this “winning”?

Is a multimillion lawsuit settlement that makes Trump richer and does absolutely nothing for average Americans the equivalent of like a field goal?

YouTube suspended the Trump account during the Trump administration so it is definitely the fault of Democrats

Kimmel was censored because of threats from the government.

See the difference?

How is a federal licensing agency threatening a network over political speech analogous in any way to a private entity deciding who can and cannot post on their website? I'm dumb, so please explain.

Google, probably one of the biggest corporations in the world, allows Trump to extort them.

JFTR, every company that has fought back against Trump, has won.

Those of us who are Americans see something unprecedented - the POTUS suing private companies while in office. Has nothing to do with left/right. Has everything to do with democracy/authoritarianism. That should be obvious to anyone with an hour of world history under their belt.

To those without this knowledge, examine the first four words in the ABC article title. Think about it for a minute. Good luck.

What are you talking about?

trump was suspended for advocating/committing violence. Kimmel was not. It's immoral for Youtube to bribe trump with this money.

Go back and reread the article and update your post and become more informed.

 

[redbeer]

Kimmel was censored because of threats from the government.

See the difference?

Kimmel wasn't censored, he was canceled by his employers for being an a-hole.

I’m not the one who is struggling with being informed.

Except when it comes to how MAGAs are scoring these “wins”.

Explain to us how this money Trump won in this settlement is going into his pocket, as you insinuated. Didn't you read the article?

Yeah - the money is going to be used by Trump for his pet project.

So…to HIM.

Trump does not own the White House, don't you know? You don't like the project, that's fine, but your insinuation was false.

 

[BirdinHand]

You are correct - he does not own the WH.

He sure doesn’t mind desecrating it though and making it like one of his tacky gold plated golf clubs though, does he?

And using money he essentially squeezes out of companies with his bullshit “lawsuits” to do such.

My “insinuation” is simply calling out the blatant abuse of power, instead of conforming to MAGA cult group think.


I’m still waiting to hear how Team MAGA is scoring these “wins”.

How does this help Americans?

What’s the number of “points” given out for this?

Lol, more of these thoughts, huh? Already know how you feel about Twump, so let's drop this craziness and get back to your false claim that this money was lining Trump's pockets.

Cult members love their cults.

Do carry on. Cheer for dear leader and the fancy golden ballroom you’ll never set a foot in.

HaHa.....all else fails do the above, lol.

True enough, I'll never set foot in the ballroom, so what. I'm merely pointing out your mischaracterization and now laughing at how you respond once caught.

What kind of thoughts result in "Twump?" What are you thinking?

It's a power grab. Authoritarianism. Fascism. Where the money goes is irrelevant. If taken to court, Twump would have lost. The company settled. Try those thoughts.
