Trump's social media platform, Truth Social, already banned a user for their nickname even when they didn't post yet.

So much for Trump not censoring but he's actually censored college campuses and also tried to take another news platform to court to try to force them to name an anon source but that's not the subject here lols. Anyways about that banned user, they were on the waiting list lol when they got the news they were banned.

From the article:

If that username sounds familiar, it's because @DevinNunesCow is similar to the name of a Twitter parody account, @DevinCow, that gained notoriety when its creator was sued by then-Republican Rep. Devin Nunes for pretending to be a cow owned by the Congressman. Nunes claimed the account, among others, were defamatory.

😂

Free speech absolutists at work!

@Burnley123 He lost several lawsuits against different parody accounts (as well as investigative journalists he was trying to silence). All paid for by 'dark money' pacs.

@SatanBurger
That is correct. That's why truth social isn't any different than facebook, Twitter or college campuses.

But this is nothing new.
People give Trump far too much credit for the things he (supposedly) does, it's like someone recently suggested, "The last person to whisper in Trump's ear takes ownership of his brain"

The name Truth Social is a wonderful oxymoron.

@JimBeam He's not really known for being truthful or sociable.

Interestingly, Truth Social has specific rules limiting speech on the platform when it involves Trump and others who own the platform. When Truth Social was first announced last year, the site's terms of services explicitly prohibited "disparage, tarnish, or otherwise harm, in our opinion, us and/or the Site."

This is much more restrictive than Twitter.

The ONLY thing the right wing ever means by "free speech" is right wing speech (without repercussions)

They don't actually mean free speech at all

@SW-User This is very true.

@JimBeam I'm sure you feel better thinking it was payback and not him being a hypocrite. If it makes you feel better than who am I to dash a dream.
