Twitter Bans fascist propaganda group Project Veritas for spreading lies and doxing

>illegal wire tapping operations are okay when we do it
Why are conservatives so evil and lawless?

The right to privacy is protected under the 4th ammendment of the constitution.

Project Veritas is the only reason we know about things like the blacklisting of conservative sites from Google searches. They are biased but so is every other news organization.

I guess the social media giants have the green-light now to continue the full-scale suppression of dissenting views.

unless you're a conservative. Then people can steal and leak anything they know about you.
NYT is gonna win another Pulitzer for getting access to Trump's tax records.

IIRC they lie about what their cover was. For instance, they tell the target that they're a defense attorney but then in the video claim they were posing as a mobster. This wold change the context in which every conversation is viewed, for instance an innocuous discussion about legal procedure suddenly turns into a shady organization giving tips to the mob. It's these techniques that ended with them losing a defamation lawsuit against ACORN.

They also use deceptive editing, such as altering the order of events or removing context. For instance their NPR video cuts out lines such as "yes we take private donations [but do not expect to receive control over our programming]" and "we even take anonymous donations [but you need to go through a significant vetting process with the feds]." The bracketed statements massively change the connotation, and were of course left out of the video.

Do you have a right to use twitter? If yes, you better nationalize twitter and make it a public utility because otherwise it's a private platform that has its own first amendment privileges. It's the same reasoning for why you can't force a baker to make cakes for a gay wedding: you can't use your free speech rights to overwrite another person's free speech rights.

The issue is fairly simple. NYT published his alleged tax records knowing full well that Trump could sue them for libel. But for Trump to sue them and win that case he would have to provide his tax records in his defense. 8D chess.

>because otherwise it's a private platform that has its own first amendment privileges.

It's not a platform if Twitter employees remove content that they find objectionable that do not violate the terms of use. They then have the same legal liabilities as other publishers

Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States...shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; [corprations and NGO's are exempt from this but it may be used to punish people who post memes on Twitter]

So why isn't NYT banned from Twitter for violating its private information policy like Project Veritas?

Except they're removing content that violates the ToS.
It just so happens that conservatives are much more likely to violate the ToS because they're psychopaths.
Consider the fact that Trump had special protection from being banned and he still managed to do something to get himself banned, that's how terrible conservatives are.

Because Twitter decided not to band them, as hypocritical as that is they have every right to do it.

They’ve been on borrowed time ever since they got pantsed by the Washington Post

>Except they're removing content that violates the ToS.

I don't recall Twitter removing the recordings of Melania Trump or Trump's tax records or anything else that has been leaked or stolen over the past 4 years.

Twitter has one interpretation of their TOS for conservatives and another for liberals.

>Twitter has one interpretation of their TOS for conservatives and another for liberals.
And that's the beauty of freedom of speech. They can do as they please within the confines of the law and constitution. Now you're free to go out and protest twitter and I'm free to go out and protest the NRA for not publishing my anti gun letters. And both twitter and NRA will face the consequences of their actions. Very cool stuff, living in the land of the free, and not fascism

Those were legal as much as you want to bitch and moan. Jamie has tendencies to find ways to break the law.
Again, maybe don't be criminals and liars and you won't get banned instead of pretending your the victim. Of course that's what conservatives always do.

>I guess recorded phone calls and documented conversations are "lies" now
they are when they're edited to completely reframe context to create a different meaning, which they've done numerous times

If what happened to the Trumps is legal then so is what PV does.

>maybe don't be criminals and liars and you won't get banned

nah just make sure you are disclosing private information on conservatives and you're good.

its not a matter of legality, it's a matter of private platforms having the right to kick retards out. if you want to argue against that right, and if you hope for the law to remove that right, expect anyone to be able to enter your property and grandstand about Trump and Veritas being con artists, or literally anything they want. Better rev up your oven for gay cakes as well

>nah just make sure you are disclosing private information on conservatives and you're good
Well given their record they'll always breaking the law or in the case of Trump and the Republicans, committing treason.

>If what happened to the Trumps is legal then so is what PV does.
The Trumps didn't press charges. I'm sure the guy who got wire tapped did.

Oh goodie, I was hoping I would not miss my daily Shareblue DNC shill news links

>Shareblue
Dab Forums really is hapless without the Russians spoonfeeding them what to spam.

>Shareblue
2015 wants their boogeyman back

Yea journalists shouldn’t really investigate public officials
It makes me so angry when they do that

I thought you were concerned with the law?

Where did I say Trump shouldn't sue? If NYT posted false and also damaging information about Trump he should definately sue.

But legitimate journalists are allowed to investigate.
Of course Veritas isn't not a legitimate outfit and they're just a Trump funded propaganda.

Remember that time Veritas came out as pro-pedophile and tried to take down the Washington Post and their agent got busted because actual journalists do their job and exposed Veritas?

They're clearly not sending their best.

They've gone through what, 3 name changes since then? Keep up.

Is Twitter a platform or an editor?

One party consent.

What makes a journalist legitimate? Is it their employment by a corporation?

Ethos, insight, and trust-worthiness: of which PV has none.

they're the only organization i know in mainstream discourse that hire journalists tho

A platform. Conservatives like to pretend like they don't understand the difference between a platform and a publisher but its the same concept as a restaurant refusing to seat a homeless person covered in shit. One could make the argument that the restaurant is "censoring" the rights of anyone who is visibly covered in feces in their establishment but any logical person can clearly see that having a restaurant filled with shit bums is bad for business and scares away reasonable, bathed customers who know how to behave in civilized society. Conservatives just want to drag everyone down to their level. Its the only way they can think of to normalize their degeneracy. If EVERY platform is a Nazi-infested cult altar to the glory of the white race then there's nothing left to compare it to is there?

>PV
>mainstream discourse

It is ironic that the conservatives are nazis, but they project every slight against them or any time they're held accountable to nazism.

Nah, PV has proven they aren't journalists, they're partisan hacks who work to spread propaganda and delegitimize the actual media.

>they're partisan hacks who work to spread propaganda

That's exactly what "the actual media" does too.

Okay Chang.

>Bake that cake!
>No no no not my poor corporations

Stop projecting, this is why you keep getting banned from twitter.

GB2bed Ivan.

>2021
>Still using Twitter

>fascist
Sensationalism encourages skepticism

Does obtaining video footage illegally make it not real?

investigative journalism is dead, all news must follow the narrative

So what do they do that any news channel doesn't. Rage sells.

Doctored footage means it takes 8-12 years of education to produce that footage.
It's as high of a quality as Disney movies

>defending O'Queef and his propaganda manufacturing & money laundering operation
Well, (You) were partially correct in using the term "pathetic" ...

You've never actually seen any of their video efforts. Makes Blair Witch Project look like a Peter Jackson epic.

If you edit the stolen video to put forward a false and misleading premise then you deserve every bit of punishment you get.

O'Keefe isn't a journalist.

>the stolen video
How was it stolen?

Not when you forge them.

>fascist propaganda group Project Veritas
hahahahahahaha do they even know what the word fascist means? all social media must be fucking destroyed

Says the guy huffing conspiracy theories like glue.

People have forgotten the definition for a long time

People should be reminded given it's what Trump and the Republicans are.

>everyone i don't like is a fascist
oh look, another faggot that doesn't understand what the word fascist means. fucking kill yourself immediately

>It's okay to stage a violent coup to install yourself as a dictator like Trump and the Republicans did.
KYS fascist apologist.

>protests i don't like are coups
>everyone i disagree with is a fascist, nazi, and dictator
you have to be 18+ to post here, this is an adult board kiddo

>A violent overthrow of the government is a protest to a fascist
True to form.

>violent
i'm not sure you know what violent looks like you little faggot.
>overthrow of the government
this is a joke right? you can't be this dumb. actually yes you can, you're a fucking faggot

>Trying to gaslight now
As expected of a fascist.

>everyone i don't like is a fascist
back to this again? retard.

>NOOOOO! DON'T CALL ME OUT FOR WHAT I AM.
Stay mad fascist.

>everyone i don't like is a fascist
yikes

>It's okay to stage a violent coup to install yourself as a dictator like Trump and the Republicans did.

>>It's okay to stage a violent coup to secede from the US and set up and autonomous zone to shoot teenagers like the left did
FTFY

>violent coup
>dictator
>fascist
>nazi
yeah, you're a faggot and you need to leave

>Y-y-y-y-you need to leave
LOL, no way fascist.

>everyone i don't like is a fascist
>everyone i disagree with is a fascist
>fascist is whatever i want it to mean
faggot, kill yourself

>whataboutism whataboutism strawman
LMAO, the eternal magat cult argument!

>butthurt no one will let him forget him and his socialist secessionist buddies shot a bunch black teenagers to death for no reason
You guys are all set to become policemen!

>Strawman
>Strawman
>Strawman
Why can't I hold all this straw?

>cope
>cope
>cope
>cry

Why are you describing the actions the fascist apologist in this thread is taking?

>Dab Forumsschizos go on about the "lying jewish media" without end
>veritas, basically Dab Forums-journalism, is known for massive deception, doctored videos, and lying
How does this work? Are they such degenerate and immoral individuals that they think everyone is like themselves?

>cry about strawmen
>can't refer to opponents without strawmen
You forgot to accuse them of being agents for a foreign country. Stick to the script.

What script? How is Veritas or Dab Forums a strawman?

>first we strawman
>then we sealion
Back to the script, good boy

>Right wing media is furious one of their man hit man operations got de-platformed.
Boo Hoo, they should all be banned given they're a poison to democracy.

They've been busted editing stuff multiple times

Also incels are a right wing thing

>They've been busted editing stuff multiple times
More or less than the MSM?

>Whataboutism
You know, you might look less like a shill if you didn't use the same tactic Trump's lawyers are using right now to try and justify his violent coup attempt.
BTW, PV also participated in the Big Lie as well over the election, so they are equally guilty.

Pretty much every single time they say something it's either false or misleading, so much more than the MSM. (implying the MSM still exists)

dailydot.com/debug/james-okeefe-project-veritas-antifa/
Remember that time Veritas released a hit piece right when it came out Trump was using federal gestapo to kidnap Americas and the location was a bookstore used to film a show that closed down years ago?

>accuses others of whataboutisms
>engages in whatbaoutisms

Has PV engaged in more or less 'deceptive editing' than the MSM? It's a simple question.

>dailydot
Remember when you accused others of releasing political hit pieces before linking a website full of political hit pieces?

Who are you counting as the MSM this time?

Answer the question and stop sealioning, faggot

I will not answer the question because you called me a sealion.

>Attack the source because the evidence is so damning against your side
Hi Trump lawyer.

>everyone who disagrees with me is literally a Trump lawyer who posts on Dab Forums to argue with me specifically
Now THIS is schizoposting

I already did here , you're just ignoring it.

>Another strawman
Yawn

>Yawn
another strawman? fascist, leave this board and never come back

>If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same... Then they shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both
Reminder folks, laws like this only applies to people, not corporations.

Even though corporations have the rights of people.
Thanks Republican supreme court.

ITT retarded reddit children that can't comprehend a communications platform
Does your cellphone company have the right to shut off your service if they listen to you acting like a fuckin faggot during your phone calls and texts?

Oh sort of like literally every video of Trump on the news that splices up 3-5 second segments out of 30 minutes of dialogue?

>Implying that's the same.
Protip. it's not.

>The hypocrite will always say "It's different when I do it"

>No one is allowed to craft new narratives by splicing up comments to fit our made up bullshit
Gotcha, alright little kid

The mass majority of lefties are little kids dude, their brains arent fully formed so they cant even comprehend cognitive dissonance

>Can't refute the facts that there's a difference.
As expected.

So...it's only clear and accurate information if it fits the false political narrative? What brain dead Lefty thinks that promoting fascist propaganda is going to reduce fascist propaganda?

You just said "theyre different" without saying how. Go ahead little kid, try and explain your silly logic to adults. Im ready for a laugh

But he won't because it would out him as a crook.

They can and should disable criminals phones if they are being used for crime, so your comparison doesnt work.

It was blatantly violent, to the point that people (who were there!) are now trying to duck it and say it was all antifa, because there's no possible way you can get
>It was non-violent, we're all good patriots!
to fly, so the only hope is to stick it on another group and hope people don't notice
So, you're a few memos behind on the talking points there, bud. Your handlers not update you yet? You're not supposed to be saying that it was a peaceful protest of good people, now you're supposed to be saying it was all Pelosi's fault and a bunch of leftist anarchists anyway

>They can and should disable criminals phones
can't ever happen luckily, but you're a child so you could have never known that, you just don't have the knowledge or life experience

Not only is that untrue, saying "I hate fags" isn't against the law either. You're genuinely fucking stupid for making this comparison.

You are a white nigger.

If I call a radio talk-show do I have the right to say whatever I want for as long as I want? Because legally at least that's all twitter is. They're not the phone company. They're not your ISP.

It was already explained, maybe stay in school to learn comprehension.

Project Veritas is no worse than the garbage on News Max, or Fox, or Msnbc.

Banning for propaganda?
They will ban the left and right and leave the Corporate approved mush in the middle.

But then, I'd guess your brane has been turned to mush from this mush already?

>Project Veritas is no worse than the garbage on News Max, or Fox, or Msnbc.
I can't remember the last time a reporter from those organization tried to wiretap a senator's phone lines or "seduce" a CNN reporter on a yacht comically decorated with sex toys.

it's absolutely worse than MSNBC and FOX, it's about on par with NewsMax
why do conservatives seem to unironically think that ALL media is ALL equally shit?
You don't have any understanding of nuance or variance it seems, even if you're saying
>these are all shitty imo
you must understand that they're at varying levels of shit. Some, like Project Veritas and NewsMax, are absolute bottom of the barrel, closer to lies than truth, should be mentioned in the same sentence as the National Enquirer. Some, like MSNBC and FOX, while clearly biased, at least attempt to stick to the facts (even if they cherrypick which facts they broadcast) in their reporting.

Fox News's is infowar/newsmax tier and nothing on the left is comes even close to the Big Lie propaganda they're churning out.
For the right wing, it's not levels, they're all part of the same operation to keep the right wing in a perpetual state of victimization.

Or directly get funding by right wing groups and Trump.

never forget

>Citing the group who just got banned for lying.
LOL

>it was debunked

probably didn't have enough pedophilia to meet twitter's standards

incels are a lot less politically focused than you would think. i can think of a lot of liberal incels i know in real life

But project veritas is pro pedo.

I guarantee this is why they were banned.
You can go after politicians but going after big tech scares them.

>posting Coco
>the anti-communist hololiver
I swear these OPs have NO idea who they're posting.

I don't think it's right to ban them, I saw nothing dishonest about any of the reports they did I mean it's not their fault people openly talk about things they shouldn't to strangers

See You can't out the big tech

>Implying Coco isn't in favor of taking down right wing misinformation.

>But not leftwing misinformation

Why can subhuman leftist only lie? Lefto wing "news" is complete fabricated propaganda

Communism is authoritarian in nature so it's right wing.

>communism is right wing

>Authoritarian government
>Not right wing
Bad bait mate.

A friendly reminder that de platforming is one of the better ways to stop the spread of misinformation.
