Do you also think you should be able to freely share child pornography on HN as part of your free speech? Or is that not how it works at all?

  Do you think that the government should force HN to host child pornography and not remove it if someone uploads it? Or is that not how it works at all?

    Of course not, the government is free to pass whatever laws regulating whatever kind of content is allowed, as they should and have been doing. What is your point again?

      It should be easy to work out the point, if you weren't being completely disingenuous. The topic of forcing platforms to remove illegal content is completely, utterly different to the topic of forcing them to host content, whether illegal or otherwise. And in the US, the government is _not_ free to pass laws forcing platforms to host, or remove, non-illegal content, without explicitly coming into conflict with the first amendment.
