Social media made a deal with congress to promote free speech.

The centralization and sanitization of the internet was one of the worst things to happen in the 2010s. It basically consolidated information traffic and empowered a generation of employed little soyboys/soygirls to affect their little tyrannical moral crusades on whatever social justice garbage that's the flavor du jour.

AKA, Section 230. A protection other media outlets do not enjoy.

This is absolutely a coordinated attempt to cut Trump off fron his followers. I'm not sure how successful it will be. The hardcore Trump supporters that I know IRL don't have Twitter accounts and aren't on social media. I'm not sure how they communicate but they always seem to know what he's up to. Is Google going to start banning Trump related emails now too?

Do you not understand what Section 230 entails?

Completely understand. What are you going to do to stop them?
We gave them all the power in the world when we signed up.

So that totally excuses Apple from banning applications based on political ideology in your world?

They aren't banning shite based on political ideology. They're banning shite because it's disinformation and propaganda designed to incite violence and hatred. Y'all have ran wild since 2008 with the Tea Party talking about "don't tread on me", "real America", "socialism", blah, blah, fricking blah...it's all bullshite. Every fricking bit of it has been bullshite since 2008.
When Google, Apple, Facebook, SnapChat, etc. silence antagonistic propaganda...when advertisers flee Fox News resulting in people like Tucker Carlson being suspended for telling lies....when OAN and Fox have to issue clarifications to say that they have ZERO proof that Dominion is corrupt or resulted in a fraudulent election...when your argument goes 1-63 in courts...you get your arse kicked by 7,000,000 votes because people are sick of your lying arse....there's a PRETTY GOOD CHANCE that it's not some grand conspiracy, but rather you've literally been fed absolute bullshite for the past 12 years.
You want to talk policy? Go ahead and hop on Twitter, Facebook, get on TV, let's have a debate. You want to spout off unmitigated bullshite inside a bubble that is literally brainwashing people and recently resulted in our Capitol being stormed and 5 people dying, including a cop who was bludgeoned to death with a fricking fire extinguisher by MAGA supporters, yeah, no place for that shite. Good riddance.

So you agree that social media companies should be stripped of their 230 protections and be held legally accountable as all other media companies?

Keep fricking around and those people will find out it’s not a guaranteed right to live. Call me nuts if you want but you better believe people that can and will follow through with it are out there.

This is really disturbing.
They are undermining parler for political reasons. It’s a shame but they are trying to silence anyone that doesn’t have a progressive stance.

So you agree prior to Trump's appointments SCOTUS was controlled by Democrats?

Of course this automatically devolved into a right vs left thing. Don’t worry about the real implications of this, as long as we can bash the other side
