It’s time we make Twitter and Facebook public utilities!

Social media shouldn't be denying content of any kind unless it specifically prohibits it in the toc. Denying articles based on the political position it espouses should never happen. Let all people speak or let nobody speak. Vote Republican to preserve your right to free speech.

There's no constitutional right to support people just coming into your property and doing what they want. It's a purely legal matter. But you have to resolve the legislation first.

These platforms are only doing what the politicians have allowed them to do. It's why we need more competent people in congress, so bad legislation doesnlt get through.

Well if your property has been open to the public and has been advertised that it’s open to the public but you only allow whites on and not blacks than you have a issue
 
You are free to start a new version of Twitter and Facebook. Confiscating the rights of the private property owner because of hurt feeling is not acceptable.

The humor here is that these companies want to be regulated. They want to be regulated because they know their lobbyists will be the ones penning the legislation and once they do that, they're gonna legally kill off any chance of any future competition. All the feds ask in return is a back door.

I don't think op understands the consequence of his or her demand.

As usual, those who participate in coercion understand very little of their role in it. And absolutely nothing of its consequence. The federal government loves people like that.

Yeah, well, if a frog had wings, he wouldn't bump his ass on the rocks. Of course, the little feller doesn't have wings. So, then, he hops around butthurt all day.
 
I would hope when this happens that lawmakers don’t fold to succumb to their terms and conditions. Let free speech rein!
Facebook and Twitter don’t worry you will still make money allowing your sites become public utilities we can all express our political feelings. let’s get it done!
So we should become like China? I guess that would be "Redcurtain"'s hope. :lmao:

No I want them to allow free speech China does not want Facebook to allow free speech lol are you on crack?
 
I was thinking about a "Public Place Law" where anyplace, either physical or electronic, that normally has public access has to provide that access equally. Nobody would be denied the right to say or see what they want without censorship or losing access.

We are already doing that. Business owners in the south can no longer deny access to black people.

So what’s the US Constitution
 
I think one can make an argument about breaking these behemoths up. There is an argument that they are wielding too much power.

What's kind of amusing is that if you've read a bit about the history of corporate concentration, it was the Democrats who passed anti-trust laws that limited corporate power and broke up monopolies in the early part of the 1900s. There were many tests to apply whether a company had too much corporate power. But that idea started getting unpopular in the 70s and 80s as conservatives started arguing against too much government regulation. And it was Robert Bork who made the decisive argument that dominates our regulatory bodies today that the only thing that mattered was whether or not the consumer received lower prices. If the consumer received lower prices because of an increase in corporate concentration, that was a good thing.

Well, the big Internet giants do lower costs for the consumer. But it is this conservative ideological framework that helps those Internet giants amass that power. It's ironic because I do think they are generally biased against conservatives.

State owned information disseminating service? That's what a communist would do.
It's coming down the pike. When Ds and Rs agree - bend over!

That's always the argument when socialists want to socialize something. Government is a jealous master. They want that power for the state.
