If you look at the actual people who get "cancelled" on social media people like Donald Trump, Alex Jones, Katie Hopkins they are usually an extreme minority who take a point of view way past reason, logic, facts, and the truth. Not sure those people contribute much in terms of the quality to a debate. They also probably got removed because they violated the terms and conditions of a private company.

However as much as I detest Donald Trump and a few others taking away their ability to be seen for what they are, whilst weeding out like minded cretins due to following them, we are in a worst place. They then breed underground. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed which they willingly signed up to. People can still think and say what they like, But if you commit a point of view or even an accusation to writing or indeed to a video it takes on a different level of accountability.

But the individual involved have the right of reply didn't he? Trouble was that every time he used it his size 12 went further down his own throat. A little knowledge and all that.

Much rubbish has been written however I know him personally and whilst a lot of venom has been directed towards him much of which might be true I can tell you all he loves O.A.F.C. He may be opinionated and made errors but he would give his last breath for the Latics. So everybody just chill and amuse yourselves with his tweets. He's no longer a director but he still loves the club. He loves OAFC? Yet his love for the club is trumped by an absolute desperation for the current owner and BoD to fail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make a point of not listening to Robbie Williams…(I block him) but I don’t mind if you want to subject yourself to his nonsense. I don’t think he should be blocked from all radio stations or streaming sites. chill countdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He jumps on Frank & the board and gives them dogs abuse at every given opportunity. He’s currently giving it large regarding the lack of under soil heating and how it was on the agenda under the Lemmies. Christ……They couldn’t even maintain the pitch properly!!!! Its complete diatribe and whether it’s him or not he wants removing pronto!! It's not Barry. I had this discussion on Twitter a few months ago with some of the PTB lads and others. I believe it's Birkett or Multiple Account Mick Malpas. But I ended up leaning towards Birkett. Because of similar language and grammar in the tweets, along with reaction between accounts.

Where the wording and language looked very similar. Especially regarding the subject matter they were spouting about at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
