It’s not as if they’d shut down political parties, or media outlets, is it?
Then too, there is the kill list.
Now there’s a new strategy that really encourages freedom of speech.
Like I said, the exception is violent intent. If we tolerate intolerance, then we are doomed. Google it.
I can see why you don’t get this, because you think you can come to this forum that is moderated, and say whatever you want. That is not how life works. There are places where you can do that, but this is not one of them.
Not at all, Lausten. I am happy to back up my claims. This is one of those places, isn’t it? If not then I’m afraid you are correct and I am at the wrong forum. As far as I know, war and humanism don’t get along well together. Nazis and humanism are not peas in a pod. Censorship and human rights are hot topics, yeah? Right now the pan is sizzling. Maybe it’s time for a grilled American cheese…

Show me something they said that you know about, but that was censored here in the US. Show me how their human rights were violated. Not a speech, or a third party report, facts.
Texas wants to secede from the US. They speak quite loudly about that.
But Texas does not have a neighbor that wants to usurp it once it is independent.
Ukraine does!

At the very recent beginning we have:
and yet, in later posts I’ll expose how this source is as well dubious…
until very recently, and I can’t help but wonder if until recently I’d have been deleted here.
The vacancy that you represent with your lack of content, and why a truth seeker would receive vague threats of censorship, I can only guess at. Whether you are the propagandized or the propagandist is mattering less and less these days. Well: Under first ammendment rights one winds up in the clinker, potentially. Given food security issues it may be grilled American cheese every night there. You can’t feed the prisoners good stuff while the population dwindles. Something about hunger and coercion… something the U$ learned from Germans? The next thing you know the Russians will be importing our best propagandists post-reform in order to dismantle U$… FAFA
Restricting certain speech on Twitter is not necessarily censorship.
It is the speech that determines its classification. Slander or Incitement to insurrection and/or violence against another person is not protected under “free speech”.
Insurrection or Free Speech?
In Brandenburg v. Ohio (1969) the Supreme Court ruled that free speech is no longer protected under the First Amendment when it is intended and likely to provoke imminent and unlawful action, this is referred to as incitement. In Virginia v. Black (2003) the Supreme Court also determined that free speech is not protected under the First Amendment when true threats are made.
True threats are statements where the speaker means to communicate a serious expression of an intent to commit an act of unlawful violence to a particular individual or group of individuals. The court clarified that the speaker need not actually intend to carry out the threat.
You have been moderated, not censored. Big difference. And how would you not know if you have had a post deleted? I’d think you are typing too much too fast if you can’t keep track.
Utube has just removed all of Scott Ritters videos
What do you fear most?”
"I fear that love is not enough "
And why is that?.. 
Discussing and criticising ukraine battlefield tactics
What do you fear most?”
"I fear that love is not enough "
It’s a privately owned company with terms of service. They have that right. This is a free country. The government can’t force them to provide a platform for Ritter.

And so lausten you are playing the game you criticize here aren’t you? I suspect you are not a singular poster. There is too much Jeckyl and Hyde in your variations. I guess it is a good time to ask, sort of as Putin asked if he could join NATO, when a poster’s post is deleted are they notified of it? If not, then why not? Is it simply because the moderator does not agree with their opinion? Now diddling with posters’ minds? This place baffles me. Integrity of each and every moderator here is established as lacking.
This place is CIA backed; I have support, at least, for this statement, through your own statements.
Now for some more pin the tail on the Nazi:
Its privately owned so what ? The deep state spreads its tentacles far and wide see the twitter files and see what they have done to Assange
What do you fear most?”
"I fear that love is not enough "
I don’t know of any deletions. I’m not playing any games
That means they decided to do it most likely. You have no evidence the deep state did anything, or that there is a deep state, or who they are.
That is a perfect example of the “conspiratorial mind”. Everything unusual is suspicious and must be attributed to the “bad intentions” of the people in charge.
The thought that CFI moderator is a volunteer job from a desire to assist in the maintenance of a non-political atmosphere , except for the fostering of humanistic principles, which do not include the practice of subterfuge and sabotage.
It’s impressive that you can’t say ‘no’. There really is something about becoming a cop that causes a change just as the psych. experiments have it. As moderators as you play these games here, I would think that an onlooker from up high will have their doubts one day. Of course I have the impression that you are they, so it is even trickier to qualify the dynamics. Anyway, it’s good to hear that while you don’t know if I’ve been deleted that you aren’t playing any games. Now, really, I’m not into these diversions, and as the OP here, I don’t care to have the topic at hand buried by these petty interactions. Here is a man who is willing to stand up to the system:
I know next to nothing about Dennis Small, but individuals like him are risking their well being when they come out like this. Obviously he cares deeply about the situation. I look forward to learning more about him, but there really isn’t much online based on a quick search. Seems he does a fair amount in Spanish.
Interesting that Small posted links to 8 sites no one has ever heard of, but neglects to link to the Washington Post article that supposedly made the original claim.
Obviously then it’s to do with the weather forecast.
Ritter:
‘We were de-platformed because of hate speech. I can tell you as somebody who’s intimately involved in this program, there was no hate speech whatsoever. This was a program designed to bring Russian voices to a western audience, simple. That’s all it was designed to do and it was succeeding. Western media outlets, The Washington Post, New York Times, CNN, they can all interview for instance Ukrainian battalion commanders but if I interviewed a Russian battalion commander it’s hate speech. They can interview Ukrainian politicians and bring you the Ukrainian point of view but if I interview a Russian politician, hate speech. The same thing with Ukrainian academics, intellectuals who explain the position of Ukraine in great detail, but if I bring on Russian politicians, Russian academics, Russian intellectuals it’s hate speech. It’s not hate speech. What’s hateful is being de-platformed for daring to challenge the mainstream narrative’
What do you fear most?”
