Trump suspended from Twitter

Mindblowing to think of the bullshit we all would have been spared if this would have happened 4 years ago.

Is that a euphemism?

This is a good start (albeit way, way late).

Next can we please ban him permanently from free society? Trump is a fascist menace. A moronic one of course, but a menace nevertheless.

Five years ago they could have stopped this whole shitshow from happening

The glorious Marina Hyde mentioned the earlier Facebook ban with just the right amount of snark:

‘And so to the founding fathers of this level of mass delusion. It was nice to hear from Mark Zuckerberg, who grandly announced he’d blocked Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts. This is not so much a case of shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted as doping the horse, whipping it into a frenzy, encouraging it to bolt, fostering a world in which humans are subjugated by horses, monetising every snort and whinny, allowing the very existence of “humans” and “horses” to become just one of a bunch of competing opinions, and then – only when that one particular horse has outlived its usefulness and seems destined for the glue factory – gently closing the stable door with a self-satisfied little “click”.’

Haha! I thought about starting a new account as “Via Getty” yesterday just to see what we could do with it, but then I had to eat some ice cream or chocolate or something. So much to do, so little energy.

Well, it was always his co-pieces of shit in the legislative branch who were in a position to do anything to and/or about Twitter, and they’re still very much on the case with their “free speech” bollocks.

But that’s beside the point ‘cos Twitter’s ass-kissing was never out of fear. They like enabling Turmp. This is just “we’ve squeezed the last schmear out of that toothpaste tube, so now we might as well try to claim the tiny amount of goodwill that supporting basic decency is worth”.

You know what, you’re all right when you’re saying this is too late but I have decided I am just going to enjoy this news. Enjoy how he is impotently ranting right now and the world can’t hear it.

Sorry. I read your “12 days early!” as excitement.

No euphemism, nothing sinister, just hope for a big celebration (in a socially distanced way).

A little birdie has said that Google and Apple have given Parler 24 hours to mend their ways or they’ll remove them from their app stores.
