'Sensitive Content': Twitter Flags Ad Exposing 2020 Dems' Radical Agendas
"Democrats have never been more extreme than they are right now. Frankly, they’re crazy," Trump says in the video. After this brief introduction, the ad moves, beat by beat, to expose one kooky idea after another.

Twitter is typical of the on line social and newstalk media.  Censor this, flag that, mark as sensitive something else if it’s a conservative or Republican source or message.  The job of on line social media is to protect democrats and use so called community standards to content control or outright censor conservatives and pro Trump voices

On Monday, the conservative group America Rising released a powerful ad exposing the 2020 Democrats' radical agendas. Twitter did not remove the ad, but it did mark the ad as containing "sensitive content," restricting access to the video.

"Democrats have never been more extreme than they are right now. Frankly, they’re crazy," Trump says in the video. After this brief introduction, the ad moves, beat by beat, to expose one kooky idea after another.

First comes the infamous moment where  every Democrat on a debate stage  raised his or her hand to say their government plans "would provide coverage for undocumented immigrants."

Then another debate moment shows Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-1/1024th of a Plan) raising her hand saying she would abolish private health insurance for a government-run plan.

Next, a moderator asks, "Would you raise taxes on the middle class to pay for Medicare for all?" Sen. Bernie Sanders (S-USSR) responds, "Yes, they will pay more in taxes."

Sure, Sanders and Warren are radical, but the America Rising ad turns to expose former Vice President Joe Biden — the ostensible moderate — as well.

"Would there be any place for fossil fuels, including coal and fracking, in a Biden administration?" a moderator asks.

"No, we would work it out," Biden says.

Then the video turns rapid-fire.

Former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg chimes in, "Roll back the Trump corporate tax cuts."

"Get rid of the Electoral College," Warren says.

"Making public colleges and universities tuition-free and canceling student debt," Sanders adds.

Warren admits all this won't come cheap: "When people say, so it’s going to be really expensive, and the answer is it is."

Then the ad turns to news reports about the costs of these plans. Sanders' plans would cost an  estimated $60 trillion  over ten years. Warren's version of Medicare for All would  cost $52 trillion  over a decade.

The ad concludes with Trump. The president calls the Democratic Party "the party of high taxes, high crime, open borders, late-term abortion, socialism, and blatant corruption."


Twitter has forbidden users from spending money to promote political content on the platform, but users can still share videos like this.

Chris Martin, communications director at America Rising, shared the video. Twitter flagged it, warning some users that "The following media includes potentially sensitive content."  "This is just a web ad we put together, no $$ behind it," Martin told PJ Media in an email. "Interestingly, Twitter immediately flagged it as 'sensitive content' which has severely limited the number of views it's received. I can't imagine what would be considered 'sensitive content' in the video..."

It does seem odd that the ad — compiled from news reports — could be considered "sensitive content." Does Twitter consider conservative messaging inherently offensive?

The democrat party agenda for 2020 is way over the edge radical.  A toxic brew of secularism, progressivism, and socialism.

There's nothing toxic about any of those.

To the average everyday American it is all nothing but toxic.  How are those people proposing to run our country when they can’t even record their Iowa caucus vote?

Same way the GOP proposed to run our country when they couldn't accurately record their Iowa caucus vote the last time around.

Talk about hypocrisy.

When was that? And don't go back to the 2012 caucus as there was only a 34 vote difference in the "race". Romney lost when the smoke cleared. And BTW, that wasn't the last time around. 2016 was and Cruz won by 6,000 votes.

And here I was told it was only conservatives who were being censored. Well well, guess not.
