You are arguing that we should punish the twitter guy and cut him off from society. But you are claiming that the system that supports that very same society is irredeemably corrupt. So in other words you want to cut off the wart that is the twitter guy and call it a victory, when the patient is dying of terminal cancer. That makes no sense!
Twitter is not a place for free speech Padowan, that place is Patnet. And the constitution does not guarantee free speech on Twitter, it guarantees free speech face to face. Tweets are not speech. Tweets are a product on a private site controlled by a few idiots/geniuses who found a way to make money off of users and advertisers. Get over it man. What Twitter did that was wrong (but perhaps not illegal) was to collude with the FBI to deliberately keep users ignorant of the Biden crime family. What the FBI did probably was illegal in interfering with the election.
The first Amendment does work, and thankfully Patrick is one of the many supporters of it. So put your second amendment talk away. I’m afraid you don’t even understand what the battle is about. The moment anyone threatens to use violence to restore the republic, they reveal their disdain for the very Republic they claim to support. The second amendment is not about providing citizens with the means to overthrow tyranny with violence, it is about preventing tyranny in the first place! Only a tyrannical government would seek to disarm its own people! That is the point the second amendment is making.
By the way, why don’t you put your money where your mouth is and stop paying taxes. Stop voting and talking about politics like it makes any difference who is elected as you claim bot Dems and reps are on the same team. Stop working for corporations that are anti-American. Stop following all the bullshit rules they Lord over you. You are part of the problem according to your own definition if you pay taxes to support the system that you describe as irredeemably corrupt. Until you find a way to stop paying taxes you are their bitch, using your word and line of reasoning.

Our only hope is to reclaim the Republic peacefully. Prosecuting the FBI deepstaters who lied about the laptop and the Steele Dossier repeatedly is a start. Also Pfauci who lied about wu flu and vaxx. Then the Bidens for selling state secrets and access for bribes. Those are the real criminals, that Twitter guy is just a corporate stooge.
WHO is going to prosecute the deepstate? The deepstate?
Our government is not just systemically corrupt, it's irredeemably corrupt.
You know how you defeat a government? You stop complying with it. You stop being the bitch of it. Yoel Roth, he wasn't only complicit, he championed it. He should be excommunicated from society, they guy is nothing but a fucking traitor to our most fundamental right in the Constitution, free speech. If the 1st amendment doesn't work, the ONLY alternative is the 2nd amendment.

No, we need to get rid of a lot of our institutions. They are parasites, they don't improve this country at all.
Look, I want to show you a quick example. This is McGuffey's Eclectic Reader. This is book 1.
https://www.gutenberg.org/files/14640/14640-pdf.pdf
Now this is book 5:
https://www.gutenberg.org/files/15040/15040-pdf.pdf
The very first book requires a teacher to work with the student, all other books can be read by the student alone with help from a teacher when they get into trouble. Read a few random pages from the 5th book.
Those were the common books used to teach 120 years ago, before we had mandatory public education - before there was ANYTHING like the Department of Education.
You are incorrect in thinking our current institutions had anything to do with making our country strong or great, you've been indoctrinated into this thinking over time. They are designed to hobble the population, not to improve it. There's a war between an upper class and a lower class. The way this war is waged is to deprive people from equal opportunity. School today, is largely a WASTE OF TIME and it's designed to waste children's time. That's its purpose.
The purpose of the Internet is really equal opportunity and that's why it's constantly under attack and they try to regulate it over and over again, but it's designed from the GROUND UP to resist this. Gutenberg had NOTHING on this. The printing press was a remarkable thing, but this, is infinitely more powerful.
Yes, it is called the New World Order, the Great Reset, build back better, etc.... but as you tear down our country and insult the people and institutions that gave us our liberty and prosperity, you are accelerating its downfall.

The institutions that made our country great are the church, the family and the ability to freely assemble/associate to join with like minded people to further our own self interests. The institutions include cities, counties and states. The constitution protects the rights of self governing. Those are the rights and institutions that need to be preserved. They cannot be preserved by burning down the system. But yes, let’s abolish the IRS, CIA, DOE, etc... through Congress and the presidency.

Wow now he’s started a Twitter poll asking whether he should step down, and that he will abide by the results, with further commentary “be careful what you wish [for], as you might get it” and “Those who want power are the ones who least deserve it.”

I agree. The First Amendment says:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
"Congress shall make no law" also means that the executive branch may not simply choose to pretend there is a censorship law.

The first amendment give you free speech from the GOVERNMENT. Twitter is not the government. They are quite literally not held to the same standards. Twitter working as an arm of the FBI to censor Americans is a violation of the First Amendment.

Historically, religion was mandatory and enforced. That's wrong, and it's a violation of our 1st amendment.
If you want to join the Catholic church, a Sunni mosque, a Scientology church, or become a Moonie, or whatever cult you prefer - I don't care, as long as you're not being forced to do it.
I recognize that religion is a tool of control, but if somebody wants to be controlled, that's THEIR RIGHT to be. Hell, most people are controlled by television today. Directs 90% of the population on what sort of social attitudes they should have to what sort of crap they should buy - but it's not compulsory.
I bet less than 5% of the people here could go a month without turning on a television, watching a film of some sort, or turning on the radio. I bet 95% couldn't do that for a month. Our "entertainment" entirely controls the population, and the intelligence agencies have been involved with it since at least the 1930's.
Almost all Americans are entirely occupied by fantasy and sportsball. It consumes your time and destroys your mind. This is done so you will never consider something else - what the fuck is going on.

He's hinted that it's a ploy to nix bots.
I'm sure the number of bot accounts has gone way down, maybe 80%, in the few weeks he's been running it.
All the rest of this year, half the time you wrote something, some account from 2009-2013 with less than 200 followers would start spewing Globohomo and Fakten Cheka rubbish. If you repeated something you said earlier, they'd never say "You said that already", they'd regurgitate their canned answer. Once one repeated their very first comment back almost verbatim. Just an advanced Eliza program.

Religion was indeed the ultimate tool. The Pharoh could use "the gods" to justify you living in a mud hut with livestock while he spent resources building himself a pyramid for the afterlife. Pretty much every kingdom since has used religion this way. "Be a good surf and honor the King and you will go to heaven after you die." If you think it was all about weapons, check out the 30 Years War and the Muslim conquests. Rulers there did not stand a chance, despite their soldiers, when they no longer controlled the religion.

https://babylonbee.com/news/washington-post-lowers-flag-to-half-staff-for-journalists-suspended-from-twitter
WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a solemn moment of solidarity, The Washington Post has lowered the flags at all its buildings nationwide to half-staff in remembrance of the brave journalists who were suspended from Twitter by Elon Musk.
"We must never forget that dark, dark, day when the voices of 9 courageous heroes of journalism were cast into the outer darkness by the fascist Elon Musk," said WaPo Editor in Chief Narbles McQuack in a statement. "They were suspended for hours and hours before being reinstated. They almost died, and so did our democracy. The world may never know just how close we came to losing everything."
Employees then bowed their heads and observed a moment of silence as the names of Ryan Mac of The New York Times, Donie O'Sullivan of CNN, and Keith Olbermann were read along with several others who gave everything in the line of duty.
"We must never, ever forget what happened on Thursday, December 19th, 2022," continued McQuack. "This was like twelve January 6ths and five 9/11s combined. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it."
McQuack then dismissed his employees as he was running late for a 3 PM meeting with the FBI on what news they would be allowed to publish that day.
