I mean, it's original work.
What would you want?
Citations to work that doesn't exist?
If you want to say you don't trust Vice on this issue, fine. But Vice is usually considered left leaning at the least and it's not clear to me why they would lie.
Whoops, should have clarified what I meant. When I meant that it's not sourceful, Vice's factual reporting is a bit of a mixed bag.
If it means anything to you, Jack Dorsey rather famously tweeted an article from the Center for American Progress calling for a "new American civil war" in which the opposition would be ground into the dust.
Also, tim was one of the big shots at vice at some point right?
Oh this is freaking cool.
By the way, you guys can call me Dusty.
Yeah, he details why he left reasonably frequently.
Everyone I know calls me Dusty.
But he was not just some journo there right?
Basically, he felt they were going too far left and ignoring their core customers.
IIRC he was a founding member.
@Ace K Your digging. Just admit it. Whataboustism isn't much of an answer either.
Can we change the topic?
Damn this got savaged by this woman.
Like damn...
And I'm not saying that Vice is lying, but I am saying that other people found examples of Democrats and leftist voices being censored on Twitter. The article comes off as clickbait by only saying in the title that prominent conservatives are getting censored xD
@Dusty Morgan <- sould be Dusty: is that an actuall steam driven locomotive?
Yes it is Pratel.
I always found the steam driven locomotives to be awesome!
There's too many examples of conservative activists shadowbanned and censored to list.
Not to mention de-verified.
he was a founding member of Vice News, not Vice as a whole
There's a whole kind of symbol for people Twitter has de-verified.
i remember back in the day when Vice was just a trashy fashion rag
they weren't always political, they used to make hipster fashion trash
@Ace K never heard of any of these people. It's completely disproportionate to sitting congressmen. My point stands.
And let's not forget people like Diamond and Silk.
Or all the de-listing of all the people on Youtube and Twitter on the right.
Again, I'm not saying you can't find someone on the left being censored, but it is disproportionate.
And Tim has mentioned some examples too in his vids, FWIW. (usually with the word "backfiring" as a lot of these people advocate censorship up until they get censored)
I didn't know Vice existed until this politic hailstorm came rolling into American plains.
I sorta did. But I didn't really hear of it much.
I think I saw the vid they had of homemade Pakistani guns, but that was about it.
