Right....private business.
that receive how much in government funds? and give access to the intelligence communities?
Like I told Moe the other day the one thing I will not defend is Statism. These corporations use the power of government for a competitive advantage.

Take away their federal funding. I'm all for it. I hate corporate welfare. You are actively wanting government to take over industry. Wrap it up in whatever anti-statism you want to call it. Gonna be a no from me, dog.

No, I didn't. I know better than giving government control over a speech platform.
But Im not going to act as if this crony ******** is capitalism either

^^^^ is okay with suppression on speech ^^^^
Correct. Happens on this ******* board all the time. It is a private business's prerogative. The government suppressing speech is a different matter.

Edit - See? This ******* board suppressed my ******* speech. OUTRAGE

What does crony capitalism have to do with a private business kicking someone off?

just curious, if you use this argument, does this also mean that you have been against all business lockdowns since March?
1 million percent. I also think the term lockdown is over blown. It's not nearly as oppressive as people whine about.

As is anyone banned from social media website X
the problem is not that Twitter is kicking people off, it is the hypocrisy. A baker cant deny a customer because he doesn't want to back a gay couple a wedding cake and it goes to supreme court
government just sits back and picks and chooses who they want to apply their rules to.
Clapper committed perjury but nothing ever came from it, but someone that worked for Trump, different results.

tell that to the people that lost their businesses
OK. I have. Along with telling them government restrictions were/are wrong. They should be furious at them.
Unless of course you're a small business owner
I am. Small businesses were crushed by consumers staying home and saving their money. Some of that can be attributed to government restrictions. Some to the shock of a pandemic. Some out of fear for the virus and financial woes. It's been an unfathomably ****** year.

A baker can though, can't they? Isn't that what the SC said?

Another seditionist bites the dust. If he voted (probably did) to not accept the election, he and everyone else who voted the same should resign immediately.

Twitter announced just moments ago that black users will have their profiles removed within the next 24 hours.
