Donald Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr. criticized big tech’s censorship and is asking people to realize its seriousness and take a stand against it.

On May 3, he wrote on Twitter, “The purposeful & calculated silencing of conservatives by @facebook & the rest of the Big Tech monopoly men should terrify everyone,” he stated, “It appears they’re taking their censorship campaign to the next level,” he wrote, adding, “Ask yourself, how long before they come to purge you? We must fight back.”

A conservative African-American woman with a MAGA hat on her avatar picture responded, “Please tell President Trump to do something about this ASAP. He can write an executive order revoking Tech Giants’ section 230 protection so we can sue them as publisher not a platform. They are monopolies & must be regulated as utilities.”

Both President Trump and his son on Friday sent  Maria Bartiromo’s post again that had a screenshot of Breitbart article titled “Facebook Blacklists Prominent Conservatives Including Paul Joseph Watson, Laura Loomer,” she said she thinks that the topic of silencing conservatives will be bigger and bigger as the 2020 election approaches.

President Donald Trump also sent Paul Joseph Watson’s tweet and video again where he talks about the censorship he and other commenters that had been crucial for Trump’s campaign have been subjected to.

Paul Watson mentions in the video that the “Big Tech” also banned Louis Farrakhan along with people with conservative leanings “obviously” to give the excuse that this wasn’t political, Watson said “It was totally political,” he said, “This is nothing less than election meddling.”

Donald Jr.’s tweet on Saturday afternoon seems to indicate that Google is “kowtowing” to leftwingers and “blacklisting hunters” from advertising on their platform.
