[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Crazy stuff.  I read here all the time that Twitter and FB are private companies, so free speech doesn't apply when they censor information. 
When the government tells them what to suppress or censor, it is a matter of free speech.

This took place in 2020. Who was president then?[/quote]

So what I'm understanding here is that the Trump DHS pressured Twitter to censor information that the Trump DHS didn't like.  That does seem like a problem for republicans.[/quote]

It is a problem for all citizens when their government can coordinate with large corporations to stifle speech they dislike,  regardless of which party happens to be in power at the time.[/quote]

Interestingly enough, among the information that was censored was … Donald Trump himself. The twisting and turning to justify this kind of relationship between government and social media/tech/large corporation speaks of the evil involved.[/quote]
