So now disagreeing with someone is proof of trying shut them down? LOLOLOLOLOL 🤣

It seems that you've taken your victimhood to such delusional lengths that someone simply disagreeing with you looks and feels like you're being cancelled or shut down.

That's... concerning, mate.
Between the two of us we know who is actually using words like cancel and shut down 😅.

Perhaps you and I don’t matter in the current scheme of events, but I think the joke is on you to feign nativity to the fact that for a lot of other people, saying something that others disagree with means getting cancelled.
 
Twitter and other Social networks are constantly working to meet the (longstanding) requirements of the App Store in terms of removing hateful, pornographic, etc. posts and to maintain proper support for customer reporting such behavior. Various countries also have laws around such things - so in addition to Apple and Google not wanting to be associated with such a forum, they may also have legal liabilities.

It would make sense after heavy layoffs in the groups that did this work, Twitter is no longer in compliance with the various App Stores' requirements.
If that is the case Apple should provide a response as to what requirements and why they are not compliant.

The lack of reasoning makes me think it’s just these don’t like you approach.
 
Ask liberal darling Alyssa Milano since just a few years ago, that's exactly how she acted.
What point are you trying to make to drag one person into this, doesn't matter if she's a celebrity or not. Does the opinion of one person validate your entire argument? Honestly couldn't care less what Alyssa Milano thinks, I can form my own opinions and thoughts.

Again, the only source we have that Apple threatens to remove Twitter is Musk himself. Nothing and nobody else, just Musk. Now if you believe the guy on his word, that is on you. I for one don't.

this thread is so gross lol people obsessing over Elon like he’s their father. super weird.

I never realized what his following was like until these past few weeks and also what happened with Dogecoin.

I still love using Twitter and hope it doesn’t come to it being removed from the App Store. that would be a little extreme IMO.

Oh now using the word cancelled in a sentence is the same as cancelling someone?

If this is the intellectual level of your conversations, I have nothing more to add.
 
Playing dumb doesn't win arguments yet people keep trying it.

You know exactly who the left is. And I don't see Elon whining. I see a lot of people on the left whining though.
I've been following your posts for a while now, and all you seem to do is troll here, not engage in any good natured conversations in an effort to find any common ground.

As you put it in a comment to someone recently, prove me wrong.
 
Not gonna scroll thru 39 pages of comments, but did anybody mention that Elon doesn't allow Apple CarPlay on his TwitCars? So why should Twitter be allowed on the Apple App Store? Where there is a LOT worse than Twitter. Like EpochTimes for instance. So nobody can say the radically insane get canceled by Apple.

This is an Apples to Oranges argument.

Let’s be real. The left doesn’t like any speech that disagrees with their viewpoint and they want to shut it down.
This website referenced “Media Matters” hardcore leftist funded political operatives and note the Elon Musk revelations on basic First Amendment posture by TC and others here is nothing short of Orwellian.

The Fascist Left is screaming for totalitarian thought police. Like someone might highlight the origin of the ChiCom virus or mention something about biology and xx and xy chromosomes.

Biology and science are dangerous. 🫠🥶🐸😱🤪🤔

It reminds me a little of liberal star Alyssa Milano's love affair with Elon just a few years ago. She was bowing down to him!

What's gross is not having a mind of your own and just parroting narratives. Not saying you do that necessarily since I don't know you, but many do.

The Epoch Times has the worlds top scientists like Robert Malone, the inventor of the mRNA platform discussing the ChiCom virus. There may be more discussion, global studies and facts emerging on the lives harmed/ended with that experimental, failed injection. 🫠

Save Big Brother and Big Pharma. They’re counting on you. #Obey
 
This is an Apples to Oranges argument.
It's not an argument, it's a comparison. And comparing apples to oranges is a perfectly valid comparison. They're both snackable, tasty, healthy fruit with a lot of commonalities and some differences. Complaining about "apples vs oranges comparisons" is as dumb as "don't judge a book by its cover"/ What ELSE would I possibly judge a book I haven't heard of by if not by what's on the cover? If one door closes, open it back up, that's how doors work!
 
Apple - as any sentient company - doesn’t „hate free speech“. It’s Twitter that is freeing hate speech.

That platform has been toxic for some time. Right now it’s pure acid. Any single trend that is shown to me gives me the creeps in the first three Tweets displayed.
If I was in charge of a billion dollar company, I wouldn’t want my ads to show up sandwiched between this kind of content.

There are limits to free speech.
No one has the right to scream „Fire“ in a crowded room when there is no flame.
And no one has the right to publicly harass another being because, you know ‚free speech‘.
My own freedom ends where the other person‘s begins. If we can’t agree on that, we’re not a society anymore but a pile of selfish egomaniacs.
You’re just making it up. Elon’s Team has already removed more bad speech and the data proves it.
But please, go on repeating the lies on behalf of the Fascist Left. 🫠

Robert Malone is absolutely not "THE" inventor of mRNA vaccines. He was involved in some early research into the technology, his role in its creation was minimal at best. So whatever he has to say today is just silly nonsense, and we're living in a post-Malone world.

Apple does a lot of business with China. It’s no surprise they don’t like free speech.

Musk is showing us just how much corporations control our thoughts. He’s risking his wealth and status to do so. I didnt have strong opinions about him before he bought Twitter. But he is really impressing me with his dedication to free speech.
Elon/Tesla has a stonking great GigaFactory in China. He does an awful lot of business there.
