Andrew Klavan said this twelve years ago this month, and it has become only more true since.

Behold, the image of Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America.

An image so toxic, so disturbing that if you gaze upon it, YOU DIE!

Well, we warned you.

I feel like Trump is off his feed a little.

Once upon a time, I would have expected him to take this as a challenge. “Oh, so now recordings of my voice are censored?? Here you go.” I could imagine him recording a great many things, just to watch Facebook et al squirm as they have to decide whether or not to censor him.

I would also have expected a fun time for conservatives who can do a credible Trump vocal impression. Will Facebook censor someone who SOUNDS like Trump? (Alec Baldwin, are you listening?)

The Left is in power, and is being ridiculous. The Right, being out of power, has a job to do: point it out, and goad them to be ever more ridiculous.

Sorry Neo,

Cannot delete a contentless comment that went up with a GD^*%^%*% misfired YouTube embed performed precisely according to their instructions.

I was attempting to reply to this,

“DNW,

There was no Detective in the movie Forbidden Planet, nor I believe was there a character named Frank Drebin. Leslie Nielsen”

With this,

Right. It was a Joke

But try as I might, no formula I had would end the snippet.

Guess, I had better find some new code.

Artfldgr: Yes, and Orwell described it really really well, I think. I wrote this 2006 post about the process of erasure.

Silencing Trump simply adds to his martydom. Very stupid to create a martyr.

DNW,

There was no Detective in the movie Forbidden Planet, nor I believe was there a character named Frank Drebin. Leslie Nielsen, the captain was friends with Warren Stevens playing the doctor, were the one’s shown the wonders of the Krell. Big fan here of that very influential early sci-fi flick. Star Trek’s Roddenberry and Lucas were among those influenced by that movie. The Day the Earth Stood Still is another one.
