The Big Bang Theory : i knew the minute Trump was elected….

They would come for the Internet. IMDB is only the first salvo. They know Trump supporters don't care about IMDB or any other place in the cyber world where intelligent discourse is going on. Trump supporters can barely read let alone write. And since a lot of people put down Trump down on IMDB which is an anonymous way to post, they are sending everything to places like Facebook or Twitter where they can monitor you. THIS IS JUST ANOTHER FORM OF CENSORSHIP. BE SCARED AMERICA BE VERY SCARED.
I never thought in all my years such a thing could happen to the United States. Be vigilant and be strong, start working out get your body and mind in shape. The battle has begun.
Since the republican party became the place for the Rich and the conservative to band together, long after President Lincoln, they have given us the great depression, McCarthism, Watergate, the war in Iraq-where we are still looking for the weapons of mass destruction, and i could go on, but of all that, whats coming now may be far worse.
Become political and get involved. The battle has begun.we start from here.

Restroom's down the hall.




"Get out here, son! There's a doin's a transpirin'!!"

But the real censorship these days - speech codes, free speech zones, political correctness, violent protests, etc - is coming from the left.

It would be just as easy, and more credible really, to argue that lefty imdb owners/controllers are shutting down the message boards so that Hollywood can keep cranking out leftist propaganda without fear of contradiction/exposure from regular people on sites like this.

Amen. Sites such as WaPo and Huffington Post suffered "break downs" in their comment sections when a Clinton article was present during the election season.

It could also be because

She should use some of the vast wealth she's accumulated to buy imdb and run it HER way.

Unless, as you say, she already IS.

Obama was president 8 years, and no problems. Trump is President for 2 weeks and the IMDB boards an unmoderated form of communication comes to a sudden end. Strange coincidence.
Stranger coincidences to come

Does that really mystify you? The left that basically controls/runs/owns Hollywood, SUPPORTED Obama, and wanted to have lots of lower-level cheerleaders rooting for him in places like this.

I don't know what you're arguing. You seem to be paranoid about everyone.
If anything, they should probably just shut down their Politics board.

It's still freedom of speech which is still protected by the constitution. For now.

I wondered elsewhere why they even HAVE a Politics board.

But the constitution is only about protecting freedom of speech from the government. No company/business/etc has any obligation to provide you with a forum, at their expense.

You may be surprised to learn it was primarily to try to keep gratuitous political talk off the movie boards.

Anti-Trolling is already big business.
There is services you can hire that will "get" the Trolls for social media.
Big companies such as Google are inventing automated anti-troll tech too.

Basically we are entering a heightened age of censorship on the web.
I know i was here on it all along watching it's downward spiral.

Trump is the most inept President in human history.
He makes Bush look like a Mensa Genius.

- so there you have it.. my opinion (the correct one)

Oh, are you one of those people who blame all the bad things that started happening years ago, on the guy who took office two weeks ago? Interesting.

I did not say that.. just that the new presidents views / policies will not be helping matters.

How do you figure? For all the posturing about Trump being some kind of right-wing whacko, all the stuff that's been happening - speech codes, political correctness, safe spaces, triggers, micro-aggression, etc - is from the LEFT. By logic you should hope someone like Trump would cancel out the left-wing nuttery.

Trump has Steve Bannon on his team, Steve Bannon, one of the most despicable pieces of dog crap ever to walk on 2 feet, this piece of racist garbage is allowed to enter the Oval office that sacred place of Lincoln and FDR and pontificate on the issues of the day. Karma is a bitch, and people like Bannon have it coming to them in spades. Lets just hope its "instant Karma."

Obama was Prez for 8 years and never once was there even a rumor that the IMDB message boards would be taken down, Trump is President for 2 weeks and its gone like a puff of smoke.
WAKE UP

Thank you

Xpmule do you want to know how we as a nation went from Presidents Like Franklin Roosevelt to Presidents like Donald Trump? They are ready to take away this board, complete censorship in America..and there are still people posting questions about Raj's girlfriend. Thats how it happens, complete naivet , complete unawareness.

Stupid!

Intelligent discourse? Where?

Intelligent discourse? Where?

Not here, where they are still worried about Raj's girlfriend and the board will be gone in a few days, which is similar to Nero playing the Fiddle as Rome burned, but if you look around you can find it.

OP, you know, conspiracy theorists sound WACKO and have no credibility.

The Dems are starting to sound like everything I've always hated about the Republicans.

I suppose it depends on which side is the poor loser.

Wow, you really haven't a clue as to what's going on. Censorship has nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with the Liberal Left keeping everyone in line and separated, making sure everything is politically correct and nothing is said that they don't approve of. The Left is against freedom of speech, not the right. The Right defends it relentlessly. Go read a book or something, please.

It's funny but sad that even people who have "When fascism comes to the US it will be called anti-fascism" as a tag line/"signature" don't realize that they're actually referring to THEMSELVES.
