One for all the Trump supporters to think on

One of Trumps former serious staffers has stated that he believes Trump could shut down the internet if elected..I wont editorialize. Just read it yourselves and decided what you would do with all that free time. I will say that by my calculations, within weeks and "America Free" internet would be up and running in some form..😷

I know it's a cult and all, but damn. This might actually anger Trump's legion of Nazis. Where else are they going to get their trans furry porn?

@BohemianBoo I figure it will upset the 5 people he has posting on 60 or so accounts here. But worse, the Chinese might be the ones running interweb 2.0. What a coup for them..😷

@BohemianBoo Trumps Fascist supporters dont care if the internet is shut down. Thats something then furriners use, or those Leftist Elites..Partiotic Muricans dont need that new fangled internet . As long as the ATM, and Netflix work and their disability money gets paid into their bank, they're good..😷
If Trump gets elected he might want to do what Joe et al wanted allegedly do…get YouTube, Twitter and other social networks to help stop spreading disinformation. It became a legal battle.

That said; on dissemination of misinformation I do Recall a heap of disinformation was espoused by Joe Biden ( who just followed what he was told to say) that if you got vaccinated for Covid you wouldn’t get it. Now that was certainly disinformation as we know he was vaxxed and still got Covid.
@soar2newhighs We have our differences, sir, but on that, we agree. He shouldn't have said it.
@LordShadowfire Fair enough. And luckily we have the right to agree to disagree.
Have a good holiday!
@soar2newhighs You, too.
Are you watching what the Biden administration is trying to do with various internet entities? It’s called suppressing freedom of speech.
As an Australian, I think you’re not well aware of the activities of this administration.
Be thankful you live in a semi tyrannical country. But I fear it’s people like yourself and like minded people in the U.S. are living in a delusion.

@Northwest it's the same technology they use for vaccine chemtrails and Jewish space lasers /s.
@soar2newhighs How is he doing that? Are people being arrested for spreading information the government doesn't like?
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@LeopoldBloom That would be on the grounds of national security. If it makes Trump feel insecure, you get arrested..😷
He may very well limit access to information, but I doubt he'll block Amazon and payment systems for donations and his NFTs. 😅 He also doesn't have the power to shutdown the internet in the rest of the world. But censoring news in the USA alone is scary enough.

@whowasthatmaskedman do you honestly think that's a rebuttal to what I said
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@SW-User You have said nothing worth rebuttal. No facts, just a point of view you cant support. Not that I am surprised..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman you're living proof I'm right

It's funny you have no idea what laws this administration has passed regarding the internet. Take your meds

@whowasthatmaskedman as long as it's your side losing I don't care who wins you forgo the hair so the chemo can kill the cancer

@SW-User OK.. Just so we all know that democracy is not your priority...😷

@whowasthatmaskedman no my priority is to fix it with paper ballots

@soar2newhighs OK. Money got into the political system at all levels, and bought influence. This happened on the right at first, but its imbedded in both sides equally now. This showed up in protectionism, and subsidies and eroded competition on the world stage. The corruption got into contracting at all levels and effected quality on critical projects. (Challengers solid rocket fuel boosters were made in pieces due to a political decision to contract to a "donor" ) Then Money demanded less regulation and less tax and the new world order was born. Of course I am only hitting the high points here. Wherever you get people, you see them looking after their own interests..😷
@whowasthatmaskedman The “people” are guys like myself and women too who are the pawns in games played by governments and IMHO those who own our and other world Governments.
Money and politicians= a John and his prostitute. Both get what they want. This is and has been a sickness in our nation for God only knows how long. The tragedy is much of this has cost us in treasures of people in our involvement in wars and conflicts we do not need to be in. But it states the military/ industrial complex.
I say this and that is…the nations that have benefited from and relied on the U.S. need to realize the sun is setting on that.
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@soar2newhighs We absolutely agree in all this.. And having gone this far I will say that a lot of the greed sown in America by the rich is short sighted. Instead of having a herd of animals they could shear, milk and breed from they are slaughtering the herd for the short term gain and will be left with little..😷

Trump has no such desires, but comrad Biden does Biden knows he is living on borrowed time. He is willing to sell his soul to wreck his country and our alies, and start a nuclear war.

@Jackaloftheazuresand One of the few joys I have in life at my age is the freedom to be as hypocritical as I wish. A pleasure I dont exercise anywhere near as often as I might. However, to approach your point directly. I am not in a position to judge his sanity or mental accuity. And while I agree my spelling (or typography) fails me from time to time, that doesnt excuse his.. That would be like saying just because Joe Biden committed a crime, Donald Trump should be allowed to get away with anything he did. You wouldnt want that. Would you?😷
Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M
@whowasthatmaskedman If they both commit the same crime it shouldn't be the other running the trial. You being a hypocrite and seemingly unapologetic in that and him being absurd are the only "crimes" here. I let you both off for writing mistakes so what now?
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@Jackaloftheazuresand "The other" isnt running the trial as much as Trump wants you to think they are. Conceivably they MIGHT be running the DOJ and therefore the prosecution. However, they are bound by the rules of evidence, court procedure and the the judge..😷
I don't see how he could get away with that. It would be like shutting down the electrical grid. He runs the risk of people just ignoring him.

@LeopoldBloom I don’t think he would shut down the internet. He uses it a lot for his own purposes. I just think he would try to punish tech companies that he doesn’t like somehow. Probably would somehow try to force them to allow hard right/alt right messaging content on their platforms.
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@LeopoldBloom He couldnt. And if he managed it, the US economy would collapse.Almost all US commerce relies on internet connections . From banks and ATMs to Fed Ex and Amazon tracking..But like most things, he hasnt throught it through..😷
@LeopoldBloom @RockerDad I feel like you guys are underestimating the level of stupidity we're dealing with. He's not smart enough to realize it would be hurting him.
Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M
I wish he would, widescale connectivity has been one of the worst things for human health
RockerDad · M
I think he just wants to stick it to the tech companies because they tend to support democrats more. I don’t think he thinks in any grander terms than that. He’s very petty. In fact, for the most part, I think the main focus of a second term for him would be just taking revenge on any people or entities that he considers to be on his enemies list (which is a very long list).
whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M
@RockerDad I cant argue with that. Considering how little Trump and the Republicans actually achieved (other than tax cuts for the rich) last time, I dont think most Americans are in danger from any Trump "action". But rather from his inaction when responding to the problems that arise while in office. Covid was a rather extreme example. But more Americans died per capita than any other developed nation and sometimes by a factor of four. Through failure to react appropriately. Of course... That could never happen again. Could it?😷

No one person, company, organization or government runs the Internet. It is a globally distributed network comprising many voluntarily interconnected autonomous networks. So Trump couldn't shut down the Internet. Cheers!

Orange cultists wankers know what to do when they're not online too, I'm guessing ;-)

@PhilDeep Yes..."Give till it hurts."😷

Its all bullshit
Sure because trump would have unlimited power just like every president 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Onestarlitnight No former president has ever owned SCOTUS. The GOP made sure that any Republican president now will. That’s very different.

I'd like to know how he is going to stop the bullets with his face then.
I'm not the slightest bit surprised. What I am, is terrified.
