- barrkel 9y agoFor sure. But trying to get privately owned companies to clamp down on free speech isn't going to fix the underlying issue; if that worked, sooner or later you'll create a market for fringe right-wing / left-wing social networks and messaging platforms that are even more of an echo chamber, and some people will start agitating for state control over permitted corporate platforms for speech - and that really will be fascism.
- pharrington 9y agoHowever, it does have a requirement that there are large public spaces available to masses to practice free speech. Another important note is that promotion is hardly the same as allowing.
