Unfortunately, those people vote.

  They do vote and they should vote. That to me is quite different from deliberately inflaming them to other actions. edit: what I mean by that is that facebook, twitter and reddit and 4chan should be held directly responsible for the violence they foster. "we're just a communication mechanism" doesn't cut it anymore. Their promotion algorithms are very different from being a telephone company

    Yes they do not deserve section 230 protections as the algorithm makes them a publisher.
