It was a tweet not a meme.

Senator Elizabeth Warren Goes Over The Line; Threatens To Punish Amazon For 'Snotty Tweets'

These officious, over-bearing Senators such as Warren and Sanders, who think the world revolves around them, are such bores.
It can be both. The word meme predates the internet.

Warren stepped in some? Color me shocked. :)

Then again Amazon is a legal fiction. Oh wait...I mean person.
If you think this is funny (it is)



but don't think it's funny when Amazon "heckles" Sanders or Warren then you're letting you bias impact your sense of humor too much to be post-partisan.

Obama supporting it:

But now, according to the democrats, the fillibuster is a racist relic of the Jim Crow era. Well, wouldn’t that make almost all Senate democrats racist, as they used the fillibuster extensively just last year?
Are you surprised? Republicans and Democrats will always be for something then against it but not before they're for it. Republicans were against a new Supreme Court justice in the final year of a presidency...until it was advantageous for them. Democrats pull this same shit. This is more of the same political garbage we've come to tolerate.

If it's politically inconvenient then it's racist/socialist/undemocratic/ etc....

Freedom of speech. Either respect the right for someone to say something you disagree with it or get out of politics and STFU. You might not like it...but they have the right. And as a public official - you best have thicker skin. Warren is a hack.

The Amazon PR people have never been funnier than Patton at anything. You are now officially on suspension from funny for at least a week pending further review.

Sure...but in her defense I don’t recall her suggesting Amazon’s speech be restricted by government. She worded poorly something similar to Grover Norquist’s famous line about drowning government in a bathtub.

Tweeting that Big Tech should be broken up so that they're not powerful enough to heckle senators with snotty tweets sounds like a threat to free speech to me.

And CID's right, she sounds like she thinks she's a privileged Roman Senator, someone who believes she and her Donk colleagues in the Senate should be above reproach and treated as patricians.

Thank you Ted Cruz for reminding me of what my wife and I were watching as newlyweds on St. Simons Island:

Bernie Sanders is a United States Senator and he should be honored, respected & venerated! Free speech be damned, Amazon should not "heckle senators with snotty tweets".

How was that Kalm? Am I getting it? ;)

Trolling Sanders and pointing out how he's literally done nothing in his career as a Senator is pretty damn funny.

That's not true. He wrote a book, made millions, stopped demonizing millionaires and focused on billionaires and his peace de resistance - unsuccessfully run for President twice. To be fair, I don't believe he's authored much legislation for all his years in Congress though.

He's like a Kardashian, famous for being famous.

That’s a criticism of him made by establishment Dems. He did co- author the Fed audit along with Ron Paul which was nice. He also helped move an entire political party to the economic left and has highlighted the corruption in campaign finance. Both positives for the country.
