So I got backed into in a parking lot with both of us in our cars.  I was stationary and he accelerated back into me.
I get the email today that because he told them something different, it's him vs me and they "have to" believe his statement.
.
My car gets damaged and I get to pay for it?  Is there no recourse when someone lies?
See if the parking lot owner has cameras. Almost all do these days.

Did you take any pictures?

The original election deniers ( which is not always a bad thing by way in a country where it is supposed to be we the people) are the ones accusing others of being election deniers.  The people skirting around the constitution are the one accusing others of trying to destroy the Constitution. The people who have created An environment where crime actually pays are the ones accusing others of being soft on crime.  The list goes on and on.  It’s like opposite Day on Seinfeld. The people who have most destroyed democracy are the ones accusing others of being a threat to democracy.

I think the good news is there’s enough people out there that have seen through it, and there’s going to be some realignment and accountability coming soon.




That dude invented the internet and global warming. Very smart.

On the one hand, I think that was a stupid and gross thing that Twitter did. On the other, in situation like that, businesses do you have the right to be that particular kind of gross and stupid. As such, we should respond with our market forces and diversify our ability to observe news. Which, frankly we should do anyway.
Twitter, to me, is a quasi-public utility - like Verizon, the power companies, cable companies, etc.

One of those is unregulated, and one of those has (had) a portal to censor, if you're on the right team.

Imagine a staunch conservative bought an unregulated Verizon and took away all the phones belonging to liberals.

I saw links to quite a few conservatives who posted in Twitter.  The same is true for FB, which I usually look at once a day or so.

I don't think they squelch any and all conservative posters, it could very well be their decisions in specific cases are wrong.

I was being extreme to make a point.

The point stands. 

Twitter censored opinion and fact when government asked it to. 

Zuckerass has also admitted to this.

this is why you ALWAYS call the police and have a citation issued to the driver at fault.

Then there is less lying to the insurance companies.
