    Rump fluffers like Lester here will never believe that the other party is not as corrupt as his.

    Since it’s been my observation that Facebook mostly just censors stuff that is too sexy for my grandmother… or too left wing for my Tea-potty turned Trumpist neighbor, I do have to kind of agree with the laughter. But I have seen that they CLAIM they’re taking down accounts and pages that support certain kinds of lying and corruption. But I haven’t actually seen it.

    Lester WANTS twitter users to spread lies, as long as they are about Democrats, but he doesn’t want anyone to spread the truth about republicans.

    Says the cartoonist who never addresses right-wing violence like the Tree of Life synagogue shootings. And who isn’t going to say anything about Trump promoting the batsh*t crazy paranoid nonsense claim that Obama conspired with Seal Team Six to fake Osama bin Laden’s death. Because Fox News doesn’t cover that, and that’s Ok with Mike Lester.

    Another fun fact. I was just blocked by those radical leftist censors at Twitter for commenting on racism in a Ton Stiglich cartoon.

    Twitter and Facebook exercise censorship and are thus able to prevent conspiracy lies from appearing anywhere?

    Like all Trump Disciples, Lester lies about EVERY issue and in this case makes up more LIES about his LIES.

    The Michigan Liberators are now in Lester’s Hall of Heroes, along with Putin.

    The latest corruption story of Joe Biden and his son comes from Rudy Guiliani, well known for spreading Russian misinformation about Joe Biden, has so many holes in it that Twitter and Facebook book deemed it too questionable to propagate. That didn’t stop FOX News talking heads. As Rudy would say “Truth isn’t truth”.

    Did you see that the story was debunked and proven false? Facebook, twitter and all respectable news outlets were right to dump it. It’s not censorship, it’s blocking election interference.

    Are we to believe that Farcebook is now actively helping the Biden campaign? Interesting then that a CNBC story broke recently that in battleground states, the Trump Campaign is spending more on Farcebook ads than the Biden Campaign is, I’ll bet Trump won’t be happy to hear he’s paying $$ to a company that is actively working against him…

    Have you heard the story about Jared Kushner and Qatar? They wouldn’t lend him money so Trump’s friends in Saudi Arabia blockaded their port. As soon as they gave Jared 9.2 billion dollars, the blockade evaporated.

    The fact that you equate Facebook and Twitter as all sources of information, and that if it’s not there means it doesn’t exist; does not reflect well on your information sources.

    Yeah… a guy knew a guy, who knew a guy who “found” a broken computer, who was just the guy to fix the computer, who was able to hack the computer, which had an unencrypted email from Hunter detailing exactly what Covid Donnie has been falsely spewing.

    Yeah, that sounds plausible.

    Can you imagine if the story was one involving one of the trump kids? It would be headline “bombshell” news for the usual suspects and twitter and fb would not suspend anyone’s account for sharing the story.

    the mf was impeached for this… 2 separate GOP led investigations into this found that it was BS… but they still pushing lies. They are pathetic… and any real Republican that doesn’t see how bad he is destroying their brand for generations to come… i feel sorry for. They are no longer known as the party of family values or Law and Order… they are now the party of corruption lies and coverups… top to bottom.

    Update (2000ET): Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock all day, you’ll know that Twitter and Facebook have been escalating their censorship of a shocking New York Post story showing emails (to and from Hunter Biden) that clearly contradict Joe Biden’s claims that he never discussed business with his son.

    The authenticity of the contents of the emails was not denied by the Biden campaign and furthermore, the possibility of an off-the-books meeting between the VP and the Ukrainian executive was not denied:

    Is it censorship to not allow information on your platform that can’t be confirmed as valid? If Twitter was news outlet, I could make an argument. Not one I would be proud of, but I could make an argument. But a social media platform. Should that be held to same standard as a media outlet? 1) if people are using social media for their news, shame on them. 2) I just don’t see how a social media platform should be expected to meet that standard. And the internet isn’t lacking for locations to get biased “information”. The point made here is disingenuous at best, purposely deceptive at worst.

    A) Getting your news from Facebook or Twitter today, is like getting your news from the coffee shop, barber shop, or salon in the past. It’s more gossip and opinion than news.2) Unless the jogger is making up the story (I wouldn’t put it past Lester) he obviously heard it from somewhere. Provide the source. If it isn’t credible, then it’s not worth it.

    Many people say Mike Lester is behind Q-Anon. Many people don’t know Mike Lester is an example of the Dunning Kruger effect. Many people say Mike Lester is paid by the Kremlin. Many people don’t know that Mike Lester cheats on his wife. Many people say Mike Lester’s kids are ugly. Many people don’t know Mike Lester dropped out of school at the age of 12 because of his drug use. Many people say Mike Lester steals candy from kids when they are out trick or treating.

    Many people say stuff about Mike. As for me, well, I don’t know Mike or the facts, so I don’t want to spread any rumors about Mike Lester. But many people say Mike is a serial shoplifter. Or maybe he shoplifts cereal. Many people don’t know Mike steals cereal from the supermarket. I’m not saying he steals cereal, it’s what many people say.

    Hey Mike, are you behind Q-Anon? Do you cheat on your wife? Are your kids ugly? Does the Kremlin pay you? Are you really a drug addict? You know many people say you are.

    I think you should rebut everything that people say, Mike. What’s the matter? Why don’t you admit you are a drug addicted Q-Anon founder who cheats on his wire, has ugly kids and shoplifts cereal. So why won’t you answer the questions Mike?

    You can easily find it by looking it up. That’s not exactly censorship. And Twitter and Facebook only lowered its priority while it was undergoing fact-checking. Also, there were problems with the fact that it was private information that had been hacked, that they have policies against.

    Oh, and by the way, the email(s) at most allege(s) that another Burisma board member met or was planning to meet with Biden. We don’t know if Biden went to this meeting, or even new of these plans. The official schedule shows that he was occupied at the time (he has an alibi). Furthermore, there is no evidence of policy being influenced by this meeting.

    Truly amazing Mike. You can’t seem to grasp how absurd a story has to be to make Facebook, AND Twitter, BOTH censor it? Do you not know how reluctant a business is to lose money? Do you think they censor the Orange Idiot thinking they’ll make money from it?

    The other part of it is that it’s nonsensical that you think that Facebook and Twitter are the only platforms somebody might get this story from.

    I had been expecting so much more from you.

    I agree that if your wife goes missing and search parties are formed as the husband you don’t want to be the one who discovers her body -like Giuliani discovering Hunter’s emails. But that doesn’t change the content of the clearly criminal content of those emails nor the inescapable fact that the Biden’s were cashing in on the vice presidency. If it were not so then @Jack/twitter wouldn’t have apologized and wouldn’t be ordered to appear next week before the Senate.

    C’mon Mikey, that story fell apart quicker than some of Rudy’s marriages. The guy who claims he received the laptop says he has a medical condition that prevented him from recognizing the person who gave him the laptop. No, he’s not blind.

    There’s no reason to think it’s anything but 100% fabrication. It’s barely worthy of Jacob Wohl, let alone Russian disinformation ops.

    Yeah, it really is a shame they took so long to actually start cracking down on the outright falsehoods and crackpot idiocy spouted by conspiracy theorists and then parroted by their incredulously simple followers.

    Because nobody is blocking the “story” you seem to think exists. You just don’t like the real story because it doesn’t say what you were hoping it would.

    Rudy didn’t “discover” any emails. They were fed to him by a Russian operative. The IC tried to warm Trump that this was going on, but that doesn’t fit his narrative, so let’s blame the media for being responsible and not spreading information until it’s verified. 17 more days!
