I dare you to try and argue against this. You can't. The President should not be able to block people on Twitter just because he doesn't like them. His Twitter account is a public forum just like his press briefings so blocking people is limiting their first amendment right. I hope he gets sued and loses. Fucking scumbag.

>tfw the presidnet has fewer rights than the average American citizen.

hmm. the first amendment means people have to listen to you now?

It's his personal account, not POTUS one

Why dont they tweet to @POTUS if they want the official account.

You are correct. We ALL have the right to attend all press briefings whenever we want no matter what.

What a bunch of retards. Free speech doesn't apply to privately owned websites.

>>128772628
Shouldn't they sue Twitter for having a block function in the first place?

this makes ZERO sense.

What do they think the First Amendment says? IN ZERO WAYS is this impinging their speech rights.

You have the right to speak

THAT DOES NOT MEAN I HAVE TO LISTEN OR BE SUBJECTED TO ABUSE even if I'm the President.

Embarrassing for an over-rated school which by the way lacks diversity as Gentiles are under-represented

This makes the great case for nationalizing twitter and letting anyone post anything, as long as the post does not break US law. Jack BTFO.

Wait a second guys, you're missing the obvious angle here... if we support this, it sets a precedent for Twitter and other social media that you can't block someone simply for expressing a view you disagree with.


... think of the implications for trolling! Imagine being able to spam and shitpost on leftist accounts without any repercussion or risk of being blocked!

>>128772628
I mean, he isn't stopping anyone's speech, he's just refusing to listen. This is the digital version of putting your fingers in your ears. You have a constitutional right to say whatever you want, you don't have a right to an audience.
>>
>>128779995
All the more reason to support stupid bullshit like this.

They'll sue Trump, Trump will win on basic constitutional grounds, and then all the leftist social media fags will start disallowing blocks and shit as part of some FUCK DRUMPF virtue signalling nonsense and all the leftists will then quit social media after being forced to be confronted by criticism and opinions they disagree with.

>>128780782
End result: no one can block you, unless you're a white male.

Careful.

You are a fucking moron. Freedom of speech means the government won't jail you.
Fuck you. Fuck those stupid people. Whole thing is a waste of time.

in which case all the white males stop using social media - that's a win in my book

>>128772628
he can block anyone he wants
especially if those people are harassing him
via twitter, which they generally are
and some of them are obscene

that IS THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THE BLOCK FEATURE

and its not a violation of free speech because those people can still tweet
>>
>>128781775
The people he blocks are simply annoying and flood him with stupid replies.
>>
>>128772628

Take it up with twitter, retard.

It's not a public forum.

More like people that spam him.

If you are sending him 15+ tweets in responss to every single tweet, you can't expect NOT to be blocked.

If he throws away mail that you spam him, is that also a violation of your first amendment rights?
