You don't read very well, do you?

The phone company is a utility, and is regulated and monitored as a utility. And as a utility, the phone company cannot "listen in" or do any number of other things on your phone. Likewise, while they can cut off your service based on specific circumstance, they cannot simply "take over" your service, or edit your conversation in any way.

Twitter is not a utility. They are not governed as a utility, and the fact of the matter is, there are hundreds of random people at twitter who, on any given day, can get into damn near anyone's account and do whatever the hell they want.

Which recently happened in a big way. You forget this already?

So again, how can something be official government and twitter?


Something need not be a public utility to be official government communication. Email also isn't a public utility.

You're digging yourself into a hole. Did you already forget why the email scandal was a scandal? Government email servers are indeed owned by the US Government.

A representative can certainly have a personal email, and can communicate regarding government business on their personal email with the limitation that no classified information may be transmitted. But an official government email is sent from an official government owned server.

To repeat the question for the third time, and hopefully to receive an answer from someone who can read and has an actual clue: How can something be official government and twitter?

Private school I assume? I mean, by what right would they have to refuse him access if it's a public high school? That's public property paid for by his tax dollars, it's an outside venue, and as long as he's willing to abide by social distancing guidelines, they have no right whatsoever to bar him from the premises. There is quite literally no law in Idaho that requires the usage of masks on public property.

Seems to me that school was using him as a convenient excuse to call off a game that they were losing to his son's team in humiliating fashion, and are attempting to drum up support by calling out his politics. Shameful not to have just conceded the game honorably rather than "cancelling" a game they were conclusively losing and trying to blame it on a parent acting well within their rights. :)


u dont have a right to public property. many high schools charge a ticket price. and in police work when you're told to leave a premise and linger in a parking lot its seen as a potential threat.

i have no doubts that it was called off in part due to the score tho.

https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/amnesty-internationals-expanded-abortion-advocacy-gets-human-rights-wrong-critic-says-70837

Amnesty International has changed its abortion advocacy policy. Up until a few days ago, they would advocate for legal access to abortion for women under 'certain circumstances'
Their new policy is that all 'pregnant people' have a human right to abortion at any point for any reason up to the moment of birth, specifically including economic and social reasons and explicitly demanding late term abortions, and even stating they support abortions motivated by sex-preference or disability, and furthermore demanding that doctors be forced to provide abortion services even if it conflicts with their sincere religious convictions.

In other words, they took their political position from "slightly left of center" to "more radically far left than chairman mao's left testicle"


In 'unrelated' news, Amnesty International has been banned from India, who have suspended their operations in the country and frozen the organizations bank accounts.

just as a curiosity will Covid19 have an effect on body positivity movements?

i mean i'll take a "curvy model" over a stick think boy bodied one any day.

but we went from getting size 8 women with stretch marks into catalogs to 300 lb heifers being "sex symbols". somewhere we lost our way.

tig ol bitties are great, and i actually am fairly attracted to stretch marks on an ass, but obese women are disgusting. and they've generally got a bunch of BS cherry picked studies claiming that weight is healthy.

however, with the emergence of Covid and the far more clear health risks at that weight, will we see a bucking of the trend?

one time i made the mistake of telling my sister in law she was way too skinny and was hotter at 140. she went from like 200 lbs down to 100 lbs in a year, i said she should have stopped a bit past half.

funny thing was she didnt get mad, her mom did, who is 98 lbs. sorry bitch, i like a body that doesnt look like a 14 year old.
