|content=Just to be clear: [[Tech-Carthyism|TechCarthyism]] is (*so-far*) a particular form of [[LeftCarthyism]] used to carry out the [[Thinkquisition]]. But it could conceivably be used by a right leaning platform against the left. McCarthy was, of course, conservative.

I‘m not aware of that having occurred yet.

|content=It seems to me that "Tecquisition" rolls off the tongue better. Same idea, though.

|content=I had forgotten that Eric already coined the term [[Thinkquisition|"Thinkquisition"]]. I guess [[Tech-Carthyism|TechCarthyism]] it is, then.

|content=What’s the ToS strikes game? Blacklisting

The “Alternative Influence Network” report? A blacklist recommendation

Operation Chokepoint? Blacklist

Trust &amp; Safety Star Chambers? Blacklisters

Cancel Culture? Blacklisting

I’m fighting this rebirth of McCarthyism as [[LeftCarthyism]].

|content=I detest *anything* that behaves like McCarthyism. If you’re confused by my politics, that’s the main clue. Ask:

Q: “What would a rational liberal/progressive do if other liberals/progressives fell under the spell of McCarthy and ceased to be liberal/progressive?”

A:Maybe this.

I want you to imagine that your private phone calls start dropping every time your uncle mentions Building 7, Jean Seberg, Hunter Biden or The Wuhan Institute of Virology.

@jack: Huh?

|content=I want my crazy pro-trump friends &amp; family to be able to say their crazy stupid ass Trump-Train Bullshit. In fact, it is essential to me. I want to be able to rebut it. I don't want to be protected against "potentially harmful" articles by a Publisher pretending to be a platform.

|content=This isn't targeted harrassment of an individual. This is a political race for president of the united states.

This is no longer a Platform in any meaningful sense. It is time to apply the standards of a Publisher.  This is insane.

|content=The most unsafe thing on Twitter is "Trust and Safety"; exactly as you would expect.

To whom do I report "Trust and Safety" @jack? Because they are out of control and they deserve, if left to continue in their censorous excesses, to destroy Twitter as it becomes a "Publisher".

Please @jack, let me know if I‘m violating Twitter’s Terms of Service as understood by your trusted Partners.

I am so disappointed in you. This is *wrong*. https://t.co/jqIXQtuNvC

|content=So cool. What are we thinking? Solitary confinement? Executions? 

I’ve never liked the guy, but I have plenty of folks I love who think he is saving America.

So sign me up &amp; let some conservative Joe or Jane off your list of families to ruin.🙏

To regulate speech companies or provide a public version of Twitter, FaceBook and Google as well as ISPs so that our speech cannot be throttled according to anything other than the laws of our nation.

|content=Trumpism fills the reality shaped hole in our journalism left by [[LeftCarthyism]]. 

You cannot rid yourself of the former without eradicating the latter. And we *must* rid ourselves of the former. 

Now.
