Which would be a really bad argument, considering that their front lawn is not designed for public use, while Twitter actually requires it.

  So the requirement for free speech in your mind is simply that the setting be used by the public? Do sports arenas, shopping malls, and private squares not kick out people for acting inappropriate? America is fully subservient to corporations. Out rights end at their doorways, including freedom of assembly and speech. To say social media is an exception because it applies rules equally to previously exempt demographics is a joke.

    > So the requirement for free speech in your mind is simply that the setting be used by the public? Nope. I just thought the analogy was quite bad.

    You are confusing free speech with trespassing. You can say whatever you want on private property, but you have to be invited onto property in order to not be trespassing. The invite can be rescinded and you can be asked to leave. You can’t literally trespass on digital spaces as the law is written. If people violate the TOS I have no problem in removing them. But when things like saying that men cannot get pregnant is hate speech, you are simply going to get some pushback that is not hate speech and people shouldn’t be removed.
