Facebook Is Right to Ban Trump for 2 Years Say a Majority of American Voters

[signalmankenneth]

The Facebook ban should've been permanent, like the Twitter ban?!! Trump is still spouting lies and falsehoods and will continue do so too! I'm just glad he does not have a social media platform anymore?!!

A new poll shows that a slim majority of Americans agree with Facebook’s recent decision to ban former President Donald Trump from its platform for the next two years.

A Politico/Morning Consult poll conducted over the weekend asked registered voters whether they supported the ban, which would last at a minimum through January 2023. Fifty-one percent said they backed the tech company’s decision, while just 40 percent said they opposed it.

Attitudes toward the ban were noticeably partisan. Seventy-seven percent of Republican voters were opposed to the decision, while 86 percent of Democrats said they backed it. Of independents taking part in the poll, 46 percent said they supported Facebook’s choice while 40 percent said they opposed it.

You're right. They should have asked only Fox and OANN fans.

So they questioned CNN AND MSNBS fans. They had a hard times finding 1300 fans though.

So it WAS even-handed, you're saying. You are right!

It was reasonably correct in its findings. That's why I check these things. When they're correct, they're correct. When they're not it needs pointing out.

You already have.

I was looking up that same data then you beat me to it

people like T.A. are soooo gullible, need to be fact-checked constantly like his orange hero

Obviously you did not read what TA wrote. You fucking idiot. In addition you are completely incapable of looking up anything technical. You cannot even count to twenty if you take your shoes off.

What is really frightening is how the D's have supported the Woke Taliban.

I never dreamed that America would collapse like this on my watch.

It is. They are not bright enough to see they will go after them someday also.

Americans are increasingly incapable of doing even rudimentary thinking.

whether they do or dont ( since it's mostly targeted against cons) isn't as important as the chilling of political speech.
Liberals used to defend free speech, now they support canceling it

Good for you.
