Apparently Twitter’s rules against free speech extend to me and other Covid and vaccine skeptics, but not to this from @simongwynn:
He then went on to delete the tweet, but he indicates that doing so was his own choice, not because Twitter asked him to:
I can’t wait to hear the lil bird explain its policies about what speech violates its policies and what doesn’t.
Under oath.

You’ve got to understand it’s their community standards-As in the Jonestown community. Shut up and drink the Kool-Aid.
That’s “Rule-based order” to you.
The US has sunk to a whole new level of depravity…
We are the evil empire!
oh it’s a long way down from here. these are the good old days.
Elons got your back
Takes a lot of gall to suggest expediting the demise of Justices to hand more nominations to a guy who’s only in the White House due to fraud. Of course, they wouldn’t be the first Justice to have been murdered in the last decade. Yes, Twitter is inconsistent.
Over the past 15 to 20 years I’ve heard/read talk like, “the way things are going, there’ll be civil war,” or “this will end with blood,” etc, etc.
I’ve dismissed most of it because ‘conservatives’, ‘the right’, ‘our side’, or whatever you want to call it, has always been too comfortable with convenience and too afraid about being “that crazy militia guy” to actually do anything. I figured the odds of any revolution or civil war were infinitessimal and that things would just gradually, incrementally slip into total authoritarian tyranny like an old man slipping into a warm bath.
This is the first thing I’ve seen that might actually spark bloodshed between “right” and left, because they are just crazy enough to start it.
Someone who thinks abortion “saves lives” just publicly, openly suggested the assassination of two Supreme Court Justices. There are tens of thousands if not millions of unhinged moonbats out there who are crazy enough to take him up on the suggestion.
“There are tens of thousands if not millions of unhinged moonbats out there”
got ’em covered.
The left is just plain murder happy….and of course they have murdered our country in the process.
oh they’ve murdered lots of countries. it’s what they do.
He must be worried? Maybe even praying after a fashion that he leaves this world with ONLY 7 holes in his head?
In case you don’t know ….
The “trolly problem” mentioned in the tweet is a decades old thought-experiment on morality / moral decision making. Briefly…
A trolly is going down the track. The operator is unaware that there are 5 people tied to the track and they will die. Fortunately, you are standing by a switch. You can pull the switch, and those 5 people will live. However …. on the switch line there is one innocent person tied down who will die if you pull the switch. Do you pull the switch?
Will you kill one innocent to save five innocents?
.
.
(For the record, I myself, would NOT.)
I’d pull some MacGyver shit using a gum wrapper to maintain the switch circuit while freeing that person, then pull the switch to save the other 5.
numbers matter.
Thanks for that information on the “trolley problem”, never had heard of that.
Here is one: A nuclear warhead is heading towards LA where many fine people in Hollywood might be radiated, should one deflect it to an unpopulated area to explode, though the area is Yellowstone Park?
Excellent question!! The “trolly problem” was actually formulated in response to something that occurred in WWII. The German V1 / V2 bombing of London.
In a nutshell …. the V1/V2 rockets were doing considerable damage to central London. Churchill via his spies and propaganda was able to convince the Germans that their rockets were MISSING their intended targets. These spies then gave the Germans the “correct” coordinates … South London! And, indeed, thereafter central London suffered no more, or minimal, damage. After the war, when asked about his strategy to sacrifice one group of Londoners for another, Churchill said he had no regrets whatsoever.

Of course, the greatest trolly example of all was committed by the USA, also in WWII. Dropping The Bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Here’s one………How many schools in the last half-century have ACTUALLY been blown up due to a bomb threat ?…….
The answer??….ZERO!!!……yet what insane overreaction do we do?stop class,interrupt the day and leave everybody distracted(the point)!………I know,I know…..but you CAN’T not do something!!,really isn’t overreacting just as bad???
Just a thought exercise……..
This guy is a prime example of why Twitter should be abandoned to die.
He figures there’s “nothing wrong with thought experiments”; but I think experiments should be left to people with the requisite tools to carry them out. This imbecile isn’t qualified.
If I was terminally ill, Simon might be on my short list.
I’m not, just sayin’.
but we all are on THEIR short list.
He has a Ukraine flag going, so you know he is a faggot.
This is inexcusable and sick. This ‘man’ needs to be arrested and tried for stimulating a hate crime.
So who are the real terrorists?
Note to our esteemed AG…what are you doing about these threats?
We will have to kill all these motherfuckers…………..your clear on that right ?
I’ll bet some are fatherfuckers too.
The undeniable fact is that we cannot reason with the left. We must accept that our cultures are incompatible, and that incompatibility will eventually lead to violence on a large scale. Every conservative should stock up on food, and arm themselves in preparation for a great war. If you are in an area where you are outnumbered, you should also consider relocating.
