> media outlets rebranding it as government censorship
I must have missed that. All the criticism I've seen about the action was just that -- criticism of the private action, basically criticizing the editorial decision.
I haven't seen anyone confuse it with government regulation.
- mst 6y agoBunch of republican politicians tried to claim it was "Biden's fault" and Ted Cruz is now selling autographed copies of Green Eggs and Ham ... which continued to sell just fine and there's no reason to think will be discontinued any time in the forseeable future.
- djrogers 6y agoCitation please? Like the above post, I’ve not seen any criticism of this that points to the government - this is a total straw man.
- mst 6y agoNo, a straw man is taking a deliberately weak version of an argument and then attacking it. I pointed out that Ted Cruz had made such attacks and was also trying to make money off it. Googling for "cruz tweet seuss" will provide you with plenty of first hand information about Cruz' actions; McCarthy also beclowned himself over the issue. If you prefer to disbelieve 'a bunch' that's up to you.
