I think this is a legitimately worthy idea. Companies won't just "go somewhere else" because they want/need to be in the town square to be seen and heard. And if the cost is slight, they probably won't balk at it. I

Well it does beg the question if Trump supporters were causing the kind of carnage that BLM caused, including barricading off city blocks, what would Biden do today?

It's not a real question as it based on a false assumption and a straw-man analogy. I never claimed my opinion was based on a specific case so I have nothing to defend against.

Decline is the wrong word. It is getting too big for it's own good. It's collapsing under it's own weight. Time is ripe for a smaller, sharper, leaner startup to do things differently and better.

You obviously have a poor understanding of the law, because intent matters. Flagging content with the intention of having it censored or removed would certainly fall foul of the constitution.

So according to the NYT "democracy" means trying to ban your political opponents? That's not democracy - it's totalitarianism. But coming from the Communist left it's hardly a surprise.

Drones and intelligent missiles are going to reshape warfare. It's not just Russia that will be vulnerable. Imagine an army of 100k small, fast kamikaze drones that carry enough explosive to destroy anything short of an MBT. What could
