"Deplatforming decreases the chance of further radicalisation and sends a strong signal that the promotion of violence and baseless conspiracy theories is unacceptable behaviour."
or so the story goes. Journalists referencing random anonymous posts have "proved" that the whole trump universe is crumbling...Qanon has lost its mojo.
It's amazing how everything tidies up and you can't tell that the place was trashed a couple of weeks ago. A fresh coat of paint and it's ready for the market.

It seems that ScoMo is desperately searching for his old mates online, after the forums that he frequented were deleted by the online warlords.
"Now I won't have someone who will tell me what to do" lamented the Scomo. "Me and the boys back at Hillsong are gutted"

Whilst Trump exiting the Whitehouse is great for the world, I can't help but feel loss for the lack of absurd entertainment that Biden's presidency will bring us.
Can't see Biden delivering absurdities like Sharpiegate:

Can't see Biden delivering absurdities like Sharpiegate:
Trump shows fake hurricane map in apparent bid to validate incorrect tweet
Trump points to map with black loop extending hurricane’s path, after previously tweeting – without evidence – that Alabama would be hit

while i agree with you, Joe is already providing some curiosities. He said today that there is no way to shift the trajectory of the virus..... which is a strange thing to say.
I think it will be different from trump. A bit old man does president type thing.

Doesn't seem strange to me, but I'm no epidemiologist.

I'd just like to register my protest in the strongest possible terms to this comparison.

Fake news she was sacked due to cough some relationship and rehired after being put out to pasture for 8 months.
I am looking forward to Trumps Patriot Party and the huge split in the GOP.

The more you look at the US situation, the more complicated it gets. One example is that Zuckerberg and his wife have "donated" about $400m to "Center for Tech and Civic Life, a Chicago-based nonprofit that offers grants for jurisdictions like cities and counties to apply for to help support their elections."
The line between gov't and private/corporate is always blurred in the US, and there are some things that the private sector does in the US which seem to invite complaints of conflict of interest, not necessarily for people like Zuckerberg, but mainly for the gov't which supposedly has regulatory control of Facebook.
The money " includes funds to purchase voting equipment, personal protective gear (like face masks) for poll workers and money to hire additional workers to run voting sites. "
On face value it seems worrying enough, but some anti-democrat media sites argue that the grants pay for " a full, 5-member Election Board (Judges of Election, two Inspectors of Election, one clerk, and one Machine Inspector) will require recruiting, training and assigning up to 8,515 poll workers (1,703 divisions x five Election Board members."
Shouldn't the states be providing these services?
Further complaints say " that of the top 20 CTCL grants, amounting to $63 million, only one — for $289,000 — has gone to a Trump county won in 2016."
You could argue that urban centres - like democrat - are the ones that need the most help. However, you have to wonder why Zuckerberg is spending all this cash in this particular initiative.
He doesnt strike me as a freedom fighter for democracy...
It seems to me that the Republican and democrat parties have done an "exchange of voters" over the last few decades, with some of the unionised middle class going republican and some of the technocrats/corporates heading to the more socially enlightened democrats...

I'd say that type of pic from both sides is a big part of it.

Its litigation that went berserk there much like other things.
As for non for profit i have never grasped it eg : The NRA etc churches its strange.
Trump had a non for profit thing in New York for charity and had to repay money.

I'm not sure where the litigation comes in. Zuckerberg is funding what should be an arm of gov't. Trump had to repay money because he used his "charity" to fund his campaign. Why does that not surprise me?? If I was in gov't I would investigate every minute of trump's day to see if he doing something illegal. Can he lie straight in bed? One thing's for sure... melania doesnt know

A quote in an article that stated 'hate fuelled by racism on the right and identity politics on the left has ripped the us apart'.
Couldn't agree more from this line.
There you go, the mention of identity politics is not some right wing conspiracy theory from.4chan.
That was an article by Peter hartcher, in my view the best journalist in Australia.

For some, the advancement of women's rights since the 1960s is 'identity politics', as is the pursuit of gay rights and equality for African Americans.
How do you define the term, 'identity politics'?
