I see nothing like this when he posts. Same with Joe. I have tried quoting, but no link shows. I must have a setting wrong, but cannot find it. I see what you posted.

Translation: "Twitter can ban who it likes - it's the First Amendment" ---> "Nooooooo, there's a person I don't agree with on the platform - he shouldn't be allowed to do this!?!?!"

Edit: huh, that is interesting - I've had it happen with Joe as well. Not all the time. But either way. I see what you mean now. Ignore my translation.

That happens to me sometimes when I'm in bad/overloaded cell areas.

That's the hypocrite/irony meme template. You find something someone said in the past and juxtaposition it against something they have said/done recently.

edit: oh i see, you literally couldn't see it. Dunno why, it's hosted here.

I see the problem. Or the cause of the problem anyway.

Brainey hot-linked to an image hosted by Facebook, rather than re-hosting the image here.

Perhaps your phone is logged into FB and your desktop is not?

I don't do Facebook, but logged in my wife's account on the computer and it made no difference. What are the extensions of those files? Maybe my old computer needs an upgrade?


Fixed!

Browser privacy; Enhanced Tracking Protection. Went from Strict to Standard
Edit #2 Not completely fixed. Some show up, others not.

JOE BIDEN APRIL 1: "There have been only 3 months in the last 50 years where the unemployment rate was lower than it is now."
JOE BIDEN APRIL 6: "Folks were hit hard by this pandemic... We’re still recovering from the economic crisis it caused."




Imagine signing a contract, and then having it nullified because you don't wanna fulfil your terms of the agreement.

Contracts get nullified all the time. There's a whole first-year course on it in law school.

As someone who directly participates in the broken, racist, patriarchal, transphobic notion of "property ownership," you are part of the problem.


Heck, you probably believe that it would be morally justifiable to charge someone rent in exchange for them having the right to occupy "your" house as their primary residence.


Not even slave-owners charged their negro tenants rent, you horrible, checkered-pants-wearing monster.

Yes, the Indian caste system is easily imported to America. Gee, I wonder why a lot of women aren't intersted in working with men from a country like India that treat women so poorly?




Really getting a laugh of the same **** liberals that spent the last 6yrs banning, canceling, and censoring any statements outside the echo chamber, but NOW they are concerned about "free speech"?!?!?

CDC: "The fact that 97% of the U.S. population lives in a county identified as having ‘low’ COVID-19 Community Level makes Title 42 no longer necessary."

also, covid is not over, you dont need to pay the govt back for your loans.
