I guess my opinion is not popular, but I'll just say this: If Musk lets Trump back on I'm deleting my account. I've heard others say the same thing. That's a fact, not an opinion.


we are a flawed democracy/republic. people on parlor and gab, which i'm not one of, are for traditional values because that is what built this country. the only pro-authoritarian ive seen is from the social media giants and blue sate gov's.


I put "traditional values" in quotes because I don't think anti-LGBTQ+ deserves to be traditional


I don't know how to ask this question without it sounding charged, but please take it as literal as possible and coming with absolutely no aggression:

Do you think removing Trump was pro-democracy? I stand very firmly against being removed on principle of him being an ex-president of the US, this comes from someone who probably thinks he should be prosecuted for (likely) falsely claiming election fraud, or IMHO stretching the definition in his favour.

I think this should be regulated, if not for everyone, at least for highly important accounts, and it should NOT be a private country that has so much power over the next US election.


> Do you think removing Trump was pro-democracy?

Yes, absolutely. A former president was undermining trust in the democratic system with no evidence of wide spread fraud, who encouraged people to attack the capital during the peaceful transfer of power, who was also encouraging people to subvert the election process at the state level. He and his assosciates had an anti-democratic plan to keep him in power.
