Why does the left hate free speech and why do so many people let attacks on free speech slide?

@TinyViolins Twitter and other social media should be treated as a public utility.

@ghostofapu Why do you hate capitalism? These companies worked hard to become successful and you want to take their wealth and distribute it to people that had no hand in it

@TinyViolins Its not anti capatalist. Its about protecting THE MOST IMPORTANT freedom which is free speech.

@ghostofapu What part of the Constitution says that businesses have to allow & promote free speech?

@TinyViolins These companies arent private businesses they have become a public utility. If you are a politician or run a business you need to be on twitter. Look at how these companies conspire together to deplatform people they dont like and prevent alternatives like Parler from blowing up to their level. There needs to be laws created to stop this kind of fasict collusion.

@ghostofapu If they're a public utility, then why do they have corporate executives, shareholders, and trade on the stock market?

How do you know that these companies are colluding together when they're known competitors? Banning toxic individuals isn't illegal, so they've not broken any collusion laws. Different companies are capable of responding to the same event.

It wasn't collusion for Uber Eats, Grubhub, and Doordash to expand their services at the same time. They acted accordingly to what was going on in the country

@TinyViolins The point is they only say Trump is toxic and ban him because they disagree with him. Yet everday there is anti white racist comments and they do NOTHING to ban those users. How is this acceptable for shareholders of Twitter?

@ghostofapu So do you want Twitter to police each and every individual user that posts something inciteful, or should they be forced to allow anybody to say anything they want, like for instance, glorifying child molestation?

@TinyViolins I think as long as there is no doxing, threats, revenge porn or child pornography everything should be allowed. If Mike Smith in Los Angeles is pro pedophile the world needs to know so they can keep their kids away from him. As long as he isnt posting cp then let him say stupid shit.

@ghostofapu Then why are you against free speech? Where does the constitution say anything about pornography?

@TinyViolins Children cannot consent. I wouldnt have a problem with them having all the lesbian naked yoga videos up on youtube as long as they are consenting adults.

@ghostofapu That just sounds like you're censoring people based on ideological differences

@ghostofapu


Communist much?
