So now Twitter is Trumps enemy of "Free Speech"?

Hows that again? Just because they tag some of his connects for fact checking.
Of course, if he doesnt want his "facts checked" all he has to do is stop Tweeting.
Oh the unfairness of it all!

Yeah, but they can't just single out Trump. If they're going to do it, do it to everyone.

@SW-User Actually, Yes they can. Twitter is a business. Not a public service. And they do apply similar standards of probity where they deem it necessary..

@whowasthatmaskedman Businesses are pretty much allowed to do whatever they want. We have very low expectations of business.

@SmartKat And thats what happens when government is not a balancing force between Capital and the people.
@SW-User

...they can't just single out the president of the united states? They can't single out someone for fact checking who has enormous influence and a huge following?

lol yeah dude, they can and it makes sense to do so.
