Maybe. That doesn't make social media moderation (or lack thereof) a coup.There is a good chance that if the laptop story wouldn't have been censored, the outcome of the 2020 election would have been different.
Your preposition is dangling.No question, the Twitter scam actually worked. They convinced voters to elect the current empty suit and all the problems he came along with.
Get a hobby, PLEASE!!!!
Kind of like Fox News didn't sufficiently cover the 1/6 investigations. Heck the entire media may have an agenda one way or the other. Maybe it all balances out. Nothing said here makes it a coup to report (or fail to report) important info.It is, unfortunately for some here, a PROVEN FACT that Twitter, in concert with US government officials, suppressed any discussion of the PROVEN GENUINE Hunter laptop.
The people who tried to overthrow the government and instal Trump on Jan 6 2021Would that be the overzealous clowns that broke into the Capitol?
Or was it the suppression of information and propaganda that was pre-Elon Twitter?

The 1/6 clowns had no chance of accomplishing anything.
Twitter lies and deceptive practices were the real coup. The real threat to democracy.
Do you really believe that if one watches Fox News they are as bad as "Neo-Nazis, and racists, and misogynists."? I am just trying to understand all the generalizing.I dismiss crazy bullshit in my life, yes. Same as I do Neo-Nazis, and racists, and misogynists.
They're a lunatic if they espouse lunatic nonsense. I will not treat this lunatic nonsense as if it should have a seat at the rational table. It's not rational; it's lunacy and dangerous to our democracy.

There is no disputing that.
The big social media sites, legacy news sources, Hollywood and academia are major sources of leftist propaganda.
I suppose it hurts them to lose one.
Personally, I wish they all went the way of Twitter.
There is no room for lies in a real Democracy.

I would never think that because someone watches MSNBC it follows that they are in favor of burning buildings and attacking journalists.
Yes, though Trump has never had control of the corrupt DOJ/FBI. Furthermore, Trump didn't have any control over corrupt members of Congress.So you admit that it was the corrupt members of Trump administration that organized and incited the violence on Jan. 6th.
Wrong.If it was the government, that means it's trump and associates.
Trump has never been part of the corrupt government. He's the target.Yeah, this orange flaming asshole, former member of the government.
Proving fact; no dispute, huh?It is, unfortunately for some here, a PROVEN FACT that Twitter, in concert with US government officials, suppressed any discussion of the PROVEN GENUINE Hunter laptop.

He's the Corruptor in Chief. Leader of the Gang.Trump has never been part of the corrupt government. He's the target.
Facts and reality say otherwise.Trump has never been part of the corrupt government.
Appropriately so.He's the target.
Meanwhile this Trumpist starts a poll thread about whether Musk should be allowed to stop Twitter interfering despite the fact that (1) he says Musk didn't explain let alone itemize what Twitter supposedly did that he is calling "interference", (2) cannot explain what he is asking people Musk should be allowed to do:
Elon Musk Says Twitter Has Interfered In Elections And Vows To Stop It
Should Musk be allowed to put a stop to Twitter's interference in elections? Poll is anonymous, so please be honest.debatepolitics.com
Musk sends a single tweet and these people run to the hyperpartisan cheerleading. Every ****in' time.
As I said then:
At any rate, I don't understand how anyone engaged in this massive cheerleading respects themselves. Musk has repeatedly shit on Trump and Trumpists. He doesn't like them. But the moment Fox tells you that liberals are mad that Musk bought Twitter, he's suddenly your biggest hero. So now, all you Trumpists are imagining that he's now trying to take revenge on your behalf for the perfectly legitimate investigation into Russia's proven interference attempts.And yet, I can't recall any DP left-lean people being mad about Musk buying Twitter. Jokes all along. I mean, I'm sure you can find a couple if you search really hard. We've got thousands here, and more broadly, there are 8 billion people on Earth. You can always find someone saying something . . .Ah well, back to the play-acting.
The only way democracy survives is if Trumpism dies. These people don't care about anything but themselves and the thought that they have "owned the libs." Christ.
Does commie guy attempt to itemize what Twitter supposedly did and what Musk wants to do? Nah, commie guy - the guy who wants you to think he is a Big Tough Patriot - is happy to simply assume that Twitter must have done something because Fox told him liberals were mad that Musk bought Twitter, itself a moronic ****ing lie.
Fox pushes a button and they leap into battle blind. Democracy may not survive.
"Fox pushes a button and they leap into battle blind". This is a theme in many of your posts. We don't say "Mr Person only thinks what MSNBC tells him to think". I disagree with you on many things
but don't feel the need to degrade as you do. Can't you have an honest disagreement with someone?
Do you ever do anything but play victim?
I never saw you on DP until recently. And since I have seen you on DP, all I have seen you do is reply to people you consider left-lean and complain about how they're being mean to Trumpists. Stop whining and address the subject, which is not how big of a victim you all are.
Subject: What exactly is Twitter alleged to have done that is "interference" or "coup attempt", why should I conclude that Twitter actually did those things, why should I conclude that it is "interference" or a "coup attempt," and what specifically does Musk propose to do about it?
Got anything directly on point? I'm not interested in more whinging on about how I'm being mean to the "**** your feelings" crowd, which attempted to topple American democracy and basically acts like the only good liberal is one that isn't drawing breath. You can't do that for years, then demand to be treated like royalty.
PS: no, there is no way to have an "honest disagreement" about 1/6. Trumpists attempted to topple the government by killing Pence and Democrats, or at the very least stall certification long enough for Trump to find a means to steal the election, and in the process they shat everywhere, got people killed, and generally showed what they're all about.
Wasn't sure it would ever happen, but we actually agree on a few things.1. The "overzealous clowns" didn't engage in a coup. They were part of a riot. Furthermore, it's getting more and more obvious that the riot was engineered by corrupt members of the government.
2. The suppression of information and propaganda from Twitter was also engineered by corrupt members of the government.
So...the answer to your question about a coup is...neither. It was corrupt members of the government.
So when you say government you must mean the dems were behind it all? Is that what you're saying? Admit it mycroft, trump and cronies are caught.Wrong.
There was much more to government than "trump and associates".

This premise of this thread has to be the dumbest of all false equivalences I've read on this board. And there have been some whoppers. Even worse than that, a false equivalence when one of the two premises being compared is a complete fabrication.
