Facebook took down Warren's ads calling for breakup of tech companies—then changed its mind
"Facebook took down several ads from Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) that denounced "anti-competitive" tech mergers and called out Facebook, Google and Amazon by name, but then restored them upon review, Politico reported."

I can't bring myself to join any party. I ask the patience of the members to edumacate me about socialism in light of this list I saw. Please use a little insight because some topics seem wrong, like flying in an airline. That's not the socialist issue, but Air Traffic Control is. With each election I usually vote on the biggest few issues to me. Thanks in advance for your wisdom! Extra points if you can explain how a private competition model would improve the subject.

I am conservative.  But, I don't let any party own me either.  The extremes of both parties have me concerned.  Now, I voted all Republican after the Democrats showed their ass over the Kavenaugh hearings.  But, in spirit, I am more of a Conservative Libertarian.  I think your rights end where someone else's begins.   For instance, the 2A says "shall not be infringed."  Well, clearly, that has been done over and over again.  That, to me, is someone (namely government), stepping on where my rights begin.  If you want to get baked in your own home, I don't care, until you decide to get in a vehicle and kill people.  It is not complicated.  The American people should be allowed to have their Bill of Rights, but not harm another with them.  For instance, I could take my Arsenal AK-47 and fire wildly into the air.  The minute that bullet impacts another's property, health, or life by my actions, I have overstepped.  Now, if someone breaks into my home for whatever nefarious reason, and I take that same AK-47 and shoot them, I am merely stopping someone from overstepping onto my rights.

This is probably clear as mud.  But, that is my brand of conservatism.

Please explain how these things are 'Democratic socialism'.

"Diversity" is nothing more than a replacement word for "affirmative action".  It's like when "progressive" took over for "liberal".  Same crap, but change the name every now and then to make it appear new and different.

Now - in all fairness, that's two different medals being awarded (Medal of Honor on the right, Medal of Freedom I assume on the left).  And the MOH is bestowed by Congress.

Actually most lefties (and most people for that matter) would lose their **** if you took away their social media for a week.
