Social media hasn't censored all conservative Republican voices. It's censored some. How does it do that? It suspends the accounts of people it doesn't like. Have you been watching the news lately?

So what is preventing you conservatives from establishing your own conservative commercial social media ventures?

Would that be laziness, incompetence or because you wouldn't have something to whine about?
 
From the OANN comment section:

It takes a special type of stupid to think the left would dress up like the right and raid the Capitol to change the outcome of an election they just won.

Yes. It's censored some. For example, when Russian disinformation has been cracked down on, "conservatives" that were completely indistinguishable from Russian disinformation operatives and bots have been caught up in that, to what *should* be no one's surprise - or outrage at anything other than the fact that US citizens are spreading Russian disinformation, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Various other cases among roughly the same lines have happened, too.

Quite frankly, "conservatives" *should* be doing some serious introspection, rather than making inane complaints about censorship. That's assuming that they are well-informed, law-abiding, and patriotic citizens. The complainers can generally be assumed to have failed to possess one or more of those qualities.

They suspended accounts of domestic enemies of the United States after a seditious attack on The Capitol. What could possibly obligate them to facilitate attacks on their own country?

A lot of people calling themselves “conservative” really aren’t; they’re anti-democracy radicals who are either indifferent to or openly hostile to American ideals. Embracing and regurgitating disinformation and propaganda from hostile and anti-democratic foreign entities is certainly not “conservative”. And deliberate stupidity and willful ignorance, like embracing Trump’s insane lies about the election, are not “conservative” either.

By the way, Trump will be out in about 98 hours.

A comforting thought.

A discomforting thought is how Trump will try to retain power after Biden is President. I fully expect him to try and force Republicans to follow his obstruction campaign against the new administration.

Yes, I've been watching the news lately. Have you been reading the comments you're replying to lately?

Would you be OK with a social media that censored all liberal democratic voices while professing to be neutral platforms rather than publishers?

Meh. Republicans will try to obstruct anyway, Trump or no Trump.

Unless you're trying to tell us that sedition, violence, and toxic disinformation are core conservative values, you are lying.

No one has been censored for being conservative.

It sounds like you have some pretty solid evidence that he was far more than just a summer intern. So lets see it.

Actual journalist Luke Rudkowski publicly outed Cooper years ago.

So he has the evidence that he was a CIA spook? Do they use a lot of college kids for top-secret espionage?

No one ever suspects college kids. They can infiltrate everywhere. "Watch the Skies campuses".

You guys are so trusting of authority.

Oh Bubba, your real problem is that we won't blindly accept your authorities.

You belong to a gnostic cult that tells you that you're one of the smartest, most well-informed people on earth. So when others point out that your sources are idiotic and fraudulent, and challenge you to transparently state specifically what your cult predicts will happen, rather than make nebulous adumbrations that can't trap you when you're proved wrong, it interferes with your assertions that you have all the answers, and that we all need to attend to you in order to better ourselves.

Nobody here thinks that any journalist is infallible. "You guys will believe anything" is just a response to the fact that we don't believe you.
 
Here's another tune for you to dance to:

Bubba, will Joseph Biden be inaugurated as the 46th president on January 20th? Yes or no, please.

Part of the problem is that while we use the term conservative their own movement contains seriously disagreeing factions. They might fund and create their own service but what version of Conservationism would it serve?

I suspect they would be banning one another 'right and left' (pun intended) for being too liberal or unconstitutional or anti-god
