It began by asserting that his intentions transcended politics. <em>&#8220;This is about saving our country,&#8221;<\/em> Trump prevaricated. He continued saying that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;America has always been a nation of smart, spirited, and independent people who take pride in thinking for themselves. We admire those who aren\u2019t afraid to speak their minds, or go against the tide. Yet suddenly, we find ourselves being censored and dictated to by a small group of self-righteous scolds and self-appointed arbiters of what everyone else is allowed to think, say, share, and do.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Oh yes. The undisputed <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=48962\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">King of Cancel Culture<\/a><\/strong> is very concerned about censorship. Trump rails about the alleged banning of doctors, scientists, and journalists (mostly by Trump), in a tirade that leads predictably to himself, whining that <em>&#8220;we\u2019ve seen a sitting president of the United States effectively silenced.&#8221;<\/em> We wish! And the last people that Trump cares about are the smart, independent thinkers. As he has told us before, he <em>&#8220;loves the poorly educated,&#8221;<\/em> for the ease with which he can fleece the them.<\/p>\n<p>Trump then complains about America having <em>&#8220;fallen far down the &#8216;slippery slope&#8217; of censorship.&#8221;<\/em> This coming from someone who <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=50917\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">advocates for the censorship of <em>Critical Race Theory<\/em><\/a><\/strong>, who <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/story\/2017\/03\/energy-department-climate-change-phrases-banned-236655\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">prohibited the use of the phrase <em>&#8220;climate change&#8221;<\/em><\/a><\/strong> by the Department of Energy, who <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=49687\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">regrets not banning Twitter and Facebook<\/a><\/strong> when he was in office, and who <em>&#8220;cancels&#8221;<\/em> anyone who is the least bit critical of him.<\/p>\n<p>Trump goes on to unironically ask, <em>&#8220;How many Americans no longer trust a word they hear from their leaders?&#8221;<\/em> Maybe that&#8217;s because Trump lied so often that it would be easier to count the few number of times he told the truth. Then he asks <em>&#8220;How many ordinary citizens have sadly come to resent their neighbors?&#8221;<\/em> Perhaps that&#8217;s due to the most divisive public figure in modern times. Trump viciously maligns anyone who isn&#8217;t unflinchingly adoring. He insults his foes with vulgar, uninhibited, rancor. He has mainstreamed hate.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Trump promised that <em>&#8220;there will be no shadow-banning, throttling, demonetizing, or messing with algorithms for political manipulation.&#8221;<\/em> In other words, you can lie as much as you want to on Trump&#8217;s site without risk of consequences for the very real harm it can cause. For example, Trump&#8217;s tweeting about nonexistent election fraud that incited the January 6th insurrection. Or his deadly falsehoods about the coronavirus pandemic. Although the site&#8217;s agreement states that it can&#8217;t be held liable for anything that a user posts. That&#8217;s actually a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eff.org\/issues\/cda230\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">provision<\/a><\/strong> of the Communications Decency Act&#8217;s Section 230 that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=49986\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump has vehemently opposed<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are exceptions to Trump&#8217;s promised <em>&#8220;free&#8221;<\/em> speech.. And they are explicitly spelled out in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/donald-trump\/trump-s-new-social-platform-welcomes-free-speech-unless-you-n1282051\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the site&#8217;s terms of service<\/a><\/strong> that state that users cannot <em>&#8220;disparage, tarnish, or otherwise harm, in our opinion, us or the Site.&#8221;<\/em> So in order to use the site you must first agree to never criticize Trump.
