[QUOTE="refineryworker05, post: 4736827, member: 66082"] This is bs is what some people I saw on Twitter are freaking out about trump getting banned from Twitter and Facebook. many of them are posting about authoritarianism and the end of free speech. That could only be true if social media companies were free speech in America, but if all those companies went out of business tomorrow free speech in America would still exist. And we all know this. So why are people pretending to believe insane bs like these companies are free speech in America? Why are they pretending that these social media companies aren’t banning tons and tons and tons and tons of stuff off their platforms regularly and that they’d support them banning 95% of the stuff they ban, but then they pretend them banning certain people is them doing something authoritarian. It’s all very strange. American poilitics is very weird to me a lot of the time. [/QUOTE]
