The CEO should stop claiming it is a public square then.

Dorsey testified at two congressional committees today; the Senate Intelligence Committee and the House Energy and Commerce committee. At both sessions, Dorsey continually referred to Twitter as either a “public square” or a “digital public square.”

Tigerdropping’s Democrats Thoughts On Censorship

I think Twitter, You Tube, and Facebook are setting dangerous trends.


If you're a Biden voter did you not realize this was the BS you were voting for? I appreciate your honesty.

“ Twitter is a private business and has the right to refuse service”

So private businesses can refuse service to blacks and gays?

We're all better off not hearing trumps every thought. That being said I do not love the ban. Let the man ramble, "I thought this was America".

Everyone should have to play by the same rules.

If a black person or gay person goes into a business and doesn't follow the rules, then yes. Just like any other person.

Us non Republicans here are kept on a short leash. Dissenting views are called trolls. DMs are common. Posts are deleted. Good posters have been banned "for trolling " when their only troll was having a different viewpoint. What is that called?
So I can't be outraged as I face censorship here. That's the point.
The internet will always have censorship that fits the owner of the site/platform's views. We see it here, we see it there

Trump isn't black or gay, as far as I know. And Twitter isn't denying him service for either of those reasons - it's for violating their rules. The ones you agree to when you make an account and to which every user (regardless of race or sexual orientation) is bound.

I got two yesterday. I then started a help board thread asking for clarification and it was deleted.
So yeah I laugh at these people upset about censorship.
They don't realize how their bubble is shaped for them. Lol

Censorship rarely achieves its intended goal.

They have the right to do it but it's not the best move.

Those thoughts, beliefs,etc. dont just go away. You just find yourself in a bubble where you no longer hear them

I think what Trump did was much worse and I certainly understand why Twitter doesn’t want him inciting his followers to violence on their platform.


Trump did not incite his followers to violence, but
he did encourage them to exercise their 1st Amendment
rights.

I suppose you think the people in this video
deserve a free pass.
