Is Free Speech Under Attack in this Country?

I have my own thoughts on what Twitter should or shouldn't do and I have no interest participating in the incorrect framing you are proposing. Neither "side" you are describing accurately describes a real world position anyone should take.

But I'm just glad to hear that you think Twitter should never limit any content on their site because that would be censorship and bad. I will let the pedos know they have your blessing to post their speech on there.
 
You'll be happy to know that twitter freely lets porn on the site...

But an unflattering article on Bidens son? Gotta suspend and censor!

Glad you're still unwilling to state your position, though

Take it from me

He doesn’t like when you won’t play his game

And when you don’t

He just says you’re scared or whatever

And then declares victory
 
How is the question loaded?

Do you support twitters decision to censor the ny post story? Even suspending accounts who shared it?

What is loaded about it?
 
You should just take solace in the fact that no one stops you from lying about whatever on this board, e.g. obvious mischaracterization of what others say. You will always be a free elf here sturg.
 
Whatever you say, chief. Ill assume you never plan to submit your opinion on yesterday's event.

Kinda weird but not unexpected
 
Here's my opinion: what twitter did had very little to do with viewpoint discrimination (an actual form of censorship) and very much to do with trying to run a successful business (i.e. "our users already refer to us as a 'hellsite'; we need to do something to avoid becoming the cesspool that every rational person perceives facebook as"). I'm not sure they are going about that goal very successfully, but what do I know. Asking whether I "support" this is a nonsense question because who cares.
 
it is an unfortunate thing that by coincidence any effort to weed out disinformation in today's environment also corresponds to viewpoint discrimination

i don't view this as twitter's problem

i do think that people from that particular viewpoint should spend some time contemplating whether the widespread propagation of disinformation should continue to be part of their toolkit

Got it.

So you dont thinknits selectively applied?

Russia Russia russia is free to spread.

Melanie's leaked audio? Spread it.

Trumps stolen tax returns? Spread it.

But the Biden story must be stopped. And what about it is a lie? Where has it been debunked?
 
why can't my propaganda be spread?

if factual things are spread


is a hell of an angle lol
 
any enforcement against propaganda and disinformation will be inherently unfair to parties that rely heavily on propaganda and disinformation to advance their causes

i can see why some posters around here would get bent out of shape over that, and why they would try to draw an equivalence between the Times/very poorly chosen one's taxes and the Post/Hunter's "email"
