--- Quote from: ultimamax on July 29, 2017, 10:09:29 PM ---Politicians don't have 100% freedom of speech. They forfeit that when they take office. PhantOS is right though. If Annoying Orange wants to ban someone from his personal account, he should be able to do it. Neither @POTUS nor @realDonaldAnnoying Orange are his personal account though, he has explicitly made his twitter(s) political and relevant to all American citizens. --- End quote --- whoever owns @potus (i assume its not the president, they just use it) has the right to block who they want. if for some reason Annoying Orange does actually own @potus then he also has that right too |

Look at this picture, for example. --- End quote --- I don't think you understand, DrenDran actually considers himself a fascist. |

Just gonna have to get used to it. I hope the next president communicates the same way. |

I don't get why some people think that when someone like Anita Sarkeesian blocks someone on Twitter it's different from when the president blocks someone on Twitter. They're both public accounts on a private company's website and they should be held to that website's rules. This is not hard to understand. IMO, this is just another judge trying to stuff on Annoying Orange because that's so cool and hip these days. |
