Far-left Democrat and close ally of AOC, Senator Ed Markey wants more censorship from social media. That is so unAmerican. Remember when the left believed in free speech? It’s a vague memory now. Democrats are now the authoritarian left.
A terrifying fact that came out of today’s hearings is that no liberal Democrat remains in the Senate. Not one stood up for free speech.
“The issue is not that the companies before us today is that they’re taking too many posts down. The issue is that they’re leaving too many dangerous posts up,” said Markey.
Markey accused Big Tech of “amplifying harmful content so that it spreads like wildfire and torches our democracy.” As an example, he noted a post from President Trump that Facebook refused to take down. “When the looting starts, the shooting starts.”
Then he claimed Trump went on national TV and told a hate group to ‘stand by’ and refuses to say he’ll accept the election results. First of all, the so-called hate group ‘Proud Boys’ is not a hate group. Secondly, he never said he wouldn’t accept election results. He might not accept crooked results.
Markey then asked Zuckerberg to say he’d censor Donald Trump if he goes on Facebook and calls for violence after the election is over. What a disgusting statement. All the violence is coming from the left and encouraged by Democrats.
The real message Markey is sending is to censor conservatives more.

America wants Democrat Senators to HANG.
The Republicans did very little in pressing Zuckerberg on the Biden laptop and interference by the FBI. The FBI had the laptop for about a year and evidently signaled Facebook on the matter, suggesting it was Russian disinformation. As for me, I wasn’t impressed by Republican Senators. The public needs to quit focusing on, “Does anyone (know) of a single liberal….”. It’s Pointless and uncovers absolutely NOTHING. Most all the questions were basically to put the three “on the spot”. It’s pretty clear neither the Senators, nor their staff, do much research at all. It was quite obvious Dorsey quickly changed “his policies” once the Senate decided to call the three in front of them.
After the first Democrat started in I quit watching any questioning from that side.
OAN had Charles Sauer from the Market Institute on In Focus. Where in hell did people like him receive his education. He’s one of those, “It’s a private company” fanatics. He gave the impression the Government doesn’t interfere in business. Well, did he ever hear of the breakup of AT&T. Not only was the company broken up, but it also required the company to provide it’s “platform” access to “other” providers. The result is; it’s no longer a private company, in the sense of control over it’s own platform. That access has to be shared with any company that will provide long distance services.
Ed Markey is a jerk, always will be a jerk and has always been a jerk with a hug hammer & sickle tatto over his heart and an application for a Loan from the national Bank of china already approved.
Are the rent-a-mob let’s get together and burn it all down posts left up?
Are birdbrained tweets from Hollywood hasbeens full of hatred and vitriol for Trump left alone?
Are short sharp messages of hatred against Deplorables left untouched?
