Section 230 Big Tech Censorship
This week Dave Rubin posted a very informative interview he had with Attorney Robert Barnes and they went over the Trump class action suit. I recommend watching it. https://rubinreport.com/upost/866468/robert-barnes-full-interview
Last week, Trump filed class-action lawsuits against Big Tech giants Facebook, Google, and Twitter over the censorship of conservatives, The Daily Wire’s Ian Haworth reported:
Speaking at a news conference, Trump said the lawsuits would demand that the court prevent ongoing censorship.
“We’re demanding an end to the shadow-banning, a stop to the silencing, and a stop to the blacklisting, banishing, and canceling that you know so well,” Trump said, calling the lawsuits “a very important game-changer for our country.”
The lawsuits, filed in the Southern District of Florida, argue that Big Tech giants violated Trump’s First Amendment rights when they suspended his social media accounts. In addition, they claim that many such platforms should be considered as “state actors” who should be limited by “First Amendment restrictions on government limitations on free speech.” Finally, the lawsuits look to strike down Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, as well as seeking “unspecified punitive damages.”
Twitter permanently banned Trump, citing the “risk of further incitement of violence” by his account, while Facebook indefinitely deplatformed the sitting president. After Facebook’s Oversight Board criticized the company for imposing an arbitrary punishment on Trump, the company clarified that Trump will remain deplatformed through Jan. 7, 2023, at least. Trump’s YouTube channel remains indefinitely suspended until there is no longer a “risk of incitement to violence.”
“There is no better evidence that Big Tech is out of control than the fact that they banned the sitting president of the United States earlier this year,” Trump told the gathered reporters. “If they can do it to me, they can do it to anyone.”
First reported by Axios, Trump’s lawsuit will also seek the immediate restoration of his social media accounts and “punitive damages” on the Big Tech giants.
The lawsuits also target the liability protections Big Tech companies enjoy under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.
“While the social media companies are officially private entities, in recent years they have ceased to be private with the enactment and their historical use of Section 230, which profoundly protects them from liability,” Trump said. “It is in effect a massive government subsidy, these companies have been co-opted, coerced and weaponized by government actors to become the enforcers of illegal, unconstitutional censorship.”
The former president accused social media companies of coordinating with federal public health officials during the pandemic to censor certain speech. Trump pointed to policies that banned users for sharing “misinformation” about COVID-19, such as opinions that raised questions about the origins of the virus and whether it was leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Big Tech companies became “the de-facto censorship arm of the U.S. government,” Trump said.

The average Muslim is peaceful. They don't make it a habit to murder Christians and women. Before the Rothschilds moved the Khazarians and the Ashkenazi Jews into Palastine with the signing of the Belfour Declaration and the NAKBA, there was no violence in Palastine between Christians, Muslims, Jews For centuries they lived in peace. The Zionists, Mossad CIA, both Bush, HRC, Obama etc funded, armed and inserted terrorist cells called: Hamas, ISIS, Hezbollah. (The Zionist even helped Mao set up the CCP in China) They used these terrorist cells whenever they need to create a False Flag, which is used as an excuse to go to war. (Oct 7th, "Weapons of Mass Destruction" 911 etc) after the NAKBA, being falsely accused for 911, the war in Afghanistan, now the genocide in Gaza, there are alot of angry Muslims. Can you blame them? Some joined these terrorist organizations because they hate Israel and the United States. They are the radicals who are beheading Christians, ...
I will have less of a presence on The Torrid Tribe Community. We have very little activity here. This is a sign to me that members have found other social media resources that they are spending more time in. I am happy to see less censorship on social media in general. I started The Torrid Tribe 4 years ago when we were in a state of censorship and lockdowns. It was a difficult time and this was a haven and sanctuary for so many.
I will be lightly posting things here to give you all content to see. This community will always be open to everyone and will resurrect to its full capacity if subscribers show they want it fully operational again with full time administration.
Thank you for being a part of this community. Sending each of you hugs.
