Free speech is a cultural value and a philosophy it, can apply to anyone and everyone. The first amendment of the US constitution protects the people from politicians and bureaucrats. Just because it’s done by a private party doesn’t mean i

It’s weird that you say no one said the the election has been stolen, yet you also say it pretty much was. Did you just wake up one morning and think maybe there was something askew with the election and go and do tons of investigative work

The paragraph I pulled that quote from is clearly about the law and government, not corporations. It makes no sense otherwise. When was the last time you saw a corporation make a list of protected classes?

A question to consider is that the courts found @realDonaldTrump was official government communication a couple of years ago. As such is it appropriate that a private company can shut it down?
