    In the past You have gotten upset about fact checking satire sites

    The algorithm picked up an up and coming onion like satire site and flagged it for spreading fake news

    Thus the suspension

    proving why sites like snopes etc have and continue to fact check satire sites

    It really is tiring to have to hold your hand for literally every conversation btw

    Is it attacking free speech to retaliate against the citizens of California using the government for not voting for Trump? That's seems like a pretty clear violation to me.

    Any of the folks who got their panties in a wad over the Goya boycott want to chime in on very poorly chosen one advocating for a boycott of Goodyear?

    Which is perfectly legal and constitutional. I am sure if little thethe wore his NAMBLA hat you as his employer would not want it in the workplace.

    it seems to me an employer has an interest in keeping that kind of stuff out of the workplace if they so choose...people should pursue their political advocacy outside the workplace

    i believe we had a similar discussion about Kaepernick and others protesting on company time and whether the NFL should be able to restrict political advocacy that was likely to piss off a significant part of their customer base

    it seemed to me then and it seems to me now that if the NFL or any employer wishes to limit such political speech a the workplace it should be able to
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

    Imagine claiming to be for freedom

    And then in the next breath saying that a business dress code is suppressing free speech

    Lol

    Guy has the audacity to try to call others stupid. Lol

    How many times on this board and in this thread do I have to explain that a business can do whatever it wants, but that I don't think it should.
