Even The Taliban Thinks Your Collusive Censorship Of Americans Is Pure Repression

I gotta ask, Jack Dorsey, Marc Zuckerberg, Nick Clegg. What’s it like, that feeling when even the Taliban recognizes that your censorship of American citizens’ speech about topics of public concern – in collusion with the current administration – is Taliban-level repressive, such that it will brook no objections from the West about its own civil- and human-rights abuses?

Does it taste like shame? Or do billions in largely unearned wealth make shame impossible?

To its minimal credit, Facebook has demonstrated enough situational awareness, having permanently banned Donald Trump, also to ban the Taliban. Not so Twitter, which continues to ban Trump, but is happy to allow the Taliban to continue to use its platform as long as the exchanges don’t get too violent.
