A better analogy: Twitter is like Fedex refusing to deliver your packages based on your politics, not the electrical utility company.

- esotericimpl 6y agoFedEx will refuse to deliver the package if they suspect there’s illicit or illegal stuff in it. Twitter can do the same, why do they have to be a carrier for right wing sycophants? If they don’t like their politics use UPS. What a terrible analogy.
- barumi 6y ago>>Twitter is like Fedex refusing to deliver your packages (...) In case you don't know, FedEx or pretty much any delivery company are free to refuse shipping your parcels. A cursory googling is enough to allow you to discover fedex's shipping guidelines.
- razius 6y agoExcept those are pretty transparent and non-political.
- barumi 6y agoThe only thing that makes Twitter's action as political is that we have a radical segment of the US's population which is hell-bent on supporting a smear campaign against a candidate they feel threatened about even though they are well aware the campaign is based on false or misleading info likely force-fed by a totalitarian regime. And to make matters worse, this radical group doesn't even care if the information is available or not, they only care about spreading it as far and wide as it's conceivable and attack anyone that they deem reactionary, including social networks that flag posts as having unsubstantiated information.
- tenebrisalietum 6y agoHaha. Glad you are talking about the political party other than the one I'm supporting.
