trump, like all of you is a dumb fuck

a town square cannot be owned by private businesses

town squares do not generate profit

town squares are owned by the town, not by private individuals who built the "town square"

youtube, twitter, facebook ARE NOT TOWN SQUARES

they are privately owned businesss that allow user the ability to use THEIR platforms

youtube, twitter, facebook are not public platforms, they belong to the private companies that built and maintain them and profit from them

Yes!! Guys, I know Trump annoys people with his speech and tweets, but this guy never, ever does, or says anything without a reason. He really is a genius. Sometimes I think he is an alien. At times he seems unfamiliar with our mores.
Fascinating person to study.

youtube, twitter and facebook have every right to censor anything they want, same as any brick and mortar business

if you walk into a bar and start saying shit the bar owner does not like, the bar owned can kick you out for what you are saying

BECAUSE the bar is privately owned property

same as how youtube, facebook and twitter are privately owned property

Social media is prohibited from interacting with our post.

It's called Freedom of Speech.

You need to 'learn our laws' before telling anyone else what they 'need' to do.

Platforms can censor all they want.
The gooberment isn't supposed to.

Congress (and other gooberment entities) shall make no laws abridging freedom of speech.

Not companies or people - Congress.

The order explicitly calls out Big Tech companies for openly working with the Chinese Communist Party and its military.

The order pursues the long-addressed “Section 230” argument protecting Big Tech firms.

The order also calls large social media platforms “the functional equivalent of a traditional public forum” and states these firms “should not infringe on protected speech”.

In the meantime, the political left has exploited that almost willful naivete and stage-whisper type of principles on the part of conservatives and made out like bandits. Liberals have treated society like the rapists in Sweden have exploited the mindset of virtue-signalling female SJWs.
