Musk bans Ye from twitter - free speech not to his taste

[toobfreak]

The doctrine of free speech concerns solely the relationship between government and those governed, not between or among private persons and private entities

SORRY, Ace, but the Left have crossed that line with Biden and Obumma's government long known to be working with many private entities for everything from gathering information to controlling public opinion, so that bird has flown the coup. The government is USING private industry under threats or promise to work with them as an end-around the constitution.

Do you think Twitter is violating free speech for deleting child pornography posts?

No. Pornography isn‘t free speech. Free speech is the right to criticize whoever you want or say what you want.

Since when are private companies required to allow unrestricted free speech?

I never made such a claim.

Ive got no problem with his banning decision. I am pointing out his hypocrisy. The type of ftee speech the right thought he would usher in is just not acceptable in a grown up media organisation.

Unless he hets a grip on it he will fail.

That isn’t hypocritical, that is some on the right having an unreasonable expectation. Letting Trump return is based on time served, if Trump started to incite violence Musk would ban him, just as he banned West. Just because a person messes up on a website, does that mean a lifetime ban? You rob a bank, serve your time and you are allowed to mix back into society, nothing wrong with that.

There is no evidence as of yet, that Musk is banning people for inciting violence in and of itself.

Isn’t that Kanye was banned, or at least the reason they gave for Kanye being banned?

It is an inconsistent action at best. And was he actually calling for violence? I would call it hate speech which is against the old TOS, but has increased exponentially with Musk at the helm and he appears to be doing little to stop it beyond slapping those who annoy or embarrass him personally. It’s a clown show right now.
