Behold the ignorance conservative, typical of most on the right.Yet Americans think they have freedom of speech.
This fails as a slippery slope fallacy.Agreed but as huge corporations control ever more of our lives, this kind of thing is likely to increase.Yet Americans think they have freedom of speech.
They do. Twitter is not the government. They are a private organization and as such can control whatever speech they want on their platform.

Conservatives are as incapable of sound reasoning as they are ignorant of the law and governance.
Twitter is making a mistake resorting to censorship over its customer base. Competitors will pop up and take their business.
The OP doesn't see the irony of using Nazi tactics to fight Nazis.

Neo Nazi meaning they don't have an Obama Christmas tree ornament and bow to Mecca 5 times a day.In an effort to curb racist abuse and violent extremism on its site, Twitter started enforcing new rules Monday.
New rules implemented on Twitter Monday have led to the suspensions of accounts belonging to prominent neo-Nazis, white nationalists and other far-right extremists.
Jayda Fransen, a leader of Britain First, a virulently anti-Muslim extremist group in the United Kingdom, got booted off the social media network Monday. Fransen gained notoriety in the United States late last month when President Donald Trump retweeted her three times.
Other accounts kicked off Twitter include those belonging to Jared Taylor, editor of the white supremacist magazine American Renaissance (which also had its verified account closed); Brad Griffin, aka Hunter Wallace, of League of The South, who helped organize a recent White Lives Matter rally in Tennessee; Jeff Schoep, head of the National Socialist Movement, a neo-Nazi group; Vanguard America, the white nationalist group to which James Alex Fields Jr., who drove his car through protesters in Charlottesville, belonged; Michael Hill, another leader in League of the South; the Traditionalist Worker Party, a white nationalist group whose co-founder was the recent subject of a sympathetic New York Times profile; Generation Identify, a European white “identitarian” group; the American Nazi Party; the English Defense League, an anti-Muslim group; and the Canadian chapter of the Jewish Defense League, a violent far-right and pro-Israel group.
Twitter announced in mid-November that beginning Dec. 18, it would consider account user behavior “on and off the platform” when deciding whether to close down an account, as part of an effort to “reduce hateful and abusive content.”

Cake bakers are a private company.Obviously, read up on the Nazis. Book burning was one of the first things they did. Censoring Twitter accounts is electronic book burning.The OP doesn't see the irony of using Nazi tactics to fight Nazis.
Is it Nazi tactics?
Let me read up on it.
Okay, the Nazis were in government.
Twitter is a private company.
The Nazis burned books and prevent people from reading them.
Twitter is stopping people writing on their site, not on the internet.
Hmm, yeah, it's the fucking same thing.

So let's see, Twitter is at liberty to restrict access as it sees fit, but bakers should be required to bake cakes for gay couples if asked. Sure that makes sense...if you're a fricken liberal.

There's a big difference.
Twitter is blocking people based on WHAT THEY WRITE. The backers aren't preventing people who go in because of what they say, they're doing it based on HOW THEY WERE BORN.
Do you not see the difference?

Well, that's one narrow-minded racist way of looking at it.
Good to hear from you fascistsIt’s perfectly appropriate and warranted for a social medium site to seek to rid itself of rightwing hate speech and bigotry.
