Twitter is a leftist shithole, that's a verifiable fact. Your more likely to face disciplinary action when espousing conservative views. So, right wing people tend to avoid that hellhole, and who can blame them. Why bother arguing when sensitive leftists will just block you (I got blocked by a leftist for linking CNN election results after he tried to refute my claim that over 60 million people voted for Trump). Twitter will even stop rightwing hashtags from trending, so implying Twitter (((traffic))) is a decent way to gauge public sentiment is actually retarded.

This is just a reversed and more elegant way of saying "Obama Socialist".

Corporation owners can and should have the right to regulate their content, as does JSP. If it's a big enough problem, a right-wing Twitter would start because free marketz, right?

We can shorten the name to represent cutting the budget and just call it Twits.

Their "leverage" is shutting down the government. I am blaming them for shutting down the government, because that is what they are doing. You can't have your cake and eat it too.
Again, you can argue if they're justified or morally in the right or whether this will pragmatically work for them, but you are dancing around the responsibility of owning the shutdown that they're forcing.

If you want to talk about the metaphilosophy of the shutdown, then I'd say with the sparsity of supermajorities in the past decades with the cementing of the filibuster and the firmly rooted two party system, the minority party has always held this power to shut down the government and the majority party has always held the power to go nuclear and put an end to this nonsense. And our system of governance is not resilient in an abstract game theory analysis of min/maxing zero sum players attempting to thwart one another, because if it came to democrats and republicans doing everything in their power, the constitution would get torn to shreds within a fortnight. Our government has only clung to existence because there is a shared civic spirit and agreement on compromise, one which is threatened by partisan strife, one which previously led to schism and war when compromise broke down. Why bother with constitutional amendments when the ultimate law of the land is might is right?

Now that conservative views are back to pre-civil rights Southern plantation owner views it is hard to say whether or not corporation owners should be forced to allow hate speech on their social media platforms.

The only thing that changed between 2011, when trump said its potus fault for any shutdown, and now, is that he's now potus. What a spineless turd sandwitch.
