I just learned that the Conservative Tree House (never heard of them) was "de-platformed" by Word Press. So I went to take a look. Word Press has this code of ethics for users: We strive to maintain a welcoming environment where everyone can feel included, by keeping communication free of discrimination, incitement to violence, promotion of hate, and unwelcoming behavior. Going to the CTH site, I read some of the content, and to my Liberaltarian mind, it looked as though the CTH mission is to violate all of those strivances to the utmost of their abilities. Given that I am a long-time business owner, I tend to take the position that WP can tell anybody they want, who is violating their clearly stated policy, to feck the feck off. Right-wingers apparently disagree, citing freedom of speech, and all. Maybe they are too incompetent to set up their own web hosting? I dunno...

Looks like the 74 year old man-infant is having a temper tantrum, again. ![[Linked Image from hosting.photobucket.com]](https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/aa470/ricksjunkmail1/Screen_Shot_2020_11_15_at_7.51.37_PM.png)

Right-wingers apparently disagree, citing freedom of speech, and all. Maybe they are too incompetent to set up their own web hosting? It always amazes me that so-called conservatives are incapable of understanding what the First Amendment’s guarantee of free speech means. It most certainly does not mean forcing a private company to publish anything I write. If it was, I’d have dozens of horrible novels published.

Oh, I'm sure they would be excellent novels!

Sen Graham has entered the realm of full scale political corruption. Trumpism has filled Graham's brain with rot.

without equality there is no liberty
America can survive bad policy, but not destruction of our Democratic institutions

Conservatives are known for confusing free speech - the right to criticize the government - with consequence- free speech. Nuance requires higher-level thinking which these rightwing idiots clearly do not possess.
