Pretty chilling what @BrandonStraka just said on FNC. It's not just that his page was pulled from FB. It's that every page admin/employee/contractor/associate of his page was pulled from FB PERSONALLY. What does that mean? Well...
2) It means that if you're a gig worker (videographer, editor, writer, etc.) and you were simply fulfilling a contract for a gig to earn a living, and you didn't even give a crap about what Brandon's page was all about, you just lost access to OTHER GIGS. Why? Well....
3) Because social media platforms are what connects us all to each other. If your personal page was the admin for your own business gig page, then your business gig page is gone too as a result. And what does that mean? Well...
4) It means that EVEN IF you had no interest in politics or political speech, OR EVEN IF you were politically engaged as a liberal and therefore were on the "right" side according to the social media overlords, your ability to make a living has been impacted. So...
5) If you're under some sort of delusion that as a liberal who hates Trump and everything he stands for, you're somehow safe from the effects of three tech dudes who are now more powerful than any world leader, you're a delusional moonbat. The effects of these bans will...
6) ...impact everyone. Sooner or later. Even if you're part of the woke crowd. People from Venezuela and Cuba continue to say this is how it all started, and yet the Left ignores them. These immigrants are watching history repeat itself. As the daughter of Polish immigrants...
7)...who fled their homeland to escape communism, and whose stories used to seem impossible to imagine - and as the great granddaughter of a woman who perished at Treblinka, I am baffled at the ignorance of those on the left who think that they're immune. It reminds me...
8)...of that viral video from the earliest BLM/Antifa riots - of the young idiots screaming down to the rioters below who were throwing rocks up at them, "But we're on YOUR side!"

1)Let’s play this out, then. A trans man is offered the part that Halle Berry just STUNNINGLY AND BRAVELY gave up, simply because he’s trans and our culture now requires it.
It’s now somehow bigoted or culturally appropriative -
2) or whatever new term is made up in the next 10 minutes to have someone NOT trans play a trans part. We’ll firmly plant ourselves in “Only trans men can play trans men” mode, so the new complaint’ll eventually be that trans people are being typecast...
3) and only getting to act in trans people roles. So what then? I guess trans people will demand to play non-trans people roles, because they’ll naturally want to play parts that stretch and grow and challenge them...
So I'm looking for some clarity here. If the purpose of wearing masks is to prevent coughed or sneezed or "moistly-said" droplets from reaching others, it doesn't matter if I re-use the same mask again and again and touch it as much as I want, right? (Thread)
2) Because a non-N95 mask isn't about protecting me from getting the virus, it's ostensibly about stopping my coughs/sneezes from reaching others as easily as they otherwise might. Homemade cloth masks do next to nothing to prevent the wearer from becoming infected, and yet...
3) I keep seeing people criticizing others for touching their own masks or adjusting them, etc. Who cares if the wearer touches their own mask? They're not wearing the mask to avoid getting sick. I mean, sure, they should avoid touching their face as a general rule, but...
