He's a Democratic presidential candidate, and this is against Democrat values. In fact, people have been deplatformed and cancelled for much less. Now it's time for him to be held to the same standard that he himself supports.

I don't know much about him (yet; I'm intrigued, though), but I know he's declared himself as a Democrat, a Republican and an independent at different times, so he's not a devout Democrat. I read somewhere that he said no candidate could win the presidency outside of the two major parties, so I assume he's aligned with them for purely strategic reasons. Apparently the Democrats are okay with it since Bernie Sanders is doing the same thing.

I don't think Bloomberg is the garden variety deplatforming, canceling Democrat, but has to tread carefully to have a chance at winning the presidency.

As I said earlier, this report on Bloomberg's thoughts actually are encouraging, since, like you (I assume), I can't stand the politically-correct nonsense of the far left. I don't think Bloomberg really supports it either.

Bloomberg is 100% corporate establishment. He won't have any problems doing the deep state's bidding and starting the wars that Trump has denied them.
