>but why do you think it's desirable? For the same reason I'm not allowed to post porn on hacker news. Why aren't we talking about how Y Combinator infringes on my freedom of speech by deleting my posts on Big Wet Asses 7? >Why defacto monopolies should decide who is allowed to exercise speech and who must be silenced? You should brush up on your definition of monopoly. What is the monopoly that is deciding who is silenced, and what market do they have a monopoly over? >Do you feel this practice will never be turned against you? Do you disagree with the idea that if crazy people don't have freedom of speech, then nobody has freedom of speech? This is a very tired and poor argument. If you have "crazy" ideas, like for example, if you believe the earth is flat, you are fully welcome on Twitter/Facebook. What Alex Jones and his ilk are accused of is harassment and inciting violence. The day I start using Twitter to incite violence is the day this "power" will turn against me. Until then, I have nothing to worry about.
