Only if you’re willing to argue that speech and race are the same thing, or that access to Twitter and housing are the same thing.
You can try this argument, just don’t expect it to persuade many people.
> I think what conservatives tend to see are a few examples where there appears to be bias.
You can spend your whole day trying to prove that Twitter is biased, and you will have completely ignored my actual point. You don’t need to prove that Twitter is biased, you need to prove that Twitter’s supposed biases justifies the government regulating protected speech.
I genuinely couldn’t care less if Twitter is biased if you don’t meet that second, higher bar. Use a different platform, petition twitter, complain here, just don’t ask the government to regulate speech.
> I get what your saying now.
Given that you did not address my core concern, I do not believe this.
