    On their platform, yes, they can become the “arbiters of speech,” book publishers don’t have to print every manuscript someone sends them do they? They gave their reasons, and you may not agree with them, others do, speech has never been absolute

    Twitter is fascist, FB not much better -and while it's not a first amendment issue it does act to silence free speech

    No matter what your politics, that shows the fascist intent and execution of these platforms
    'free speech' has limitations, why can't you figure that out retard?

    also, why do you hate capitalists protecting their businesses?

    Spin it all you want but silencing is silencing.

    No one has a right to social media. Don’t play by the rules, you get your ass kicked off and getting kicked off Twitter does not equate to silencing anyone, especially for the POTUS. There are about a zillion mics and podiums he could step up to and tell lies to if he wasn’t such a fucking coward.
    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

    If they did, probably for the same reasons, spreading lies that they see have the potential to inspire violence, after watching the events of last Wednesday, Flynn’s calls for the need for martial law raises alarms

    Not fascist, they are a private entity, if it was a bad decision, they will get hurt in the marketplace, you people are just upset cause social media is just about the only way Trump can communicate, it’s his shortcoming

    Haley is an embarrassment to her amoral party, even those loons can't stand her

    And there is nothing wrong with them silencing Trump, or anyone else they deem undesirable, the spin is on the right, they are only upset cause it is the only means Trump has to express his views, it is Trump’s own fault he is so limited

    You mean there’s nothing illegal about it.

    It flies square in the face of *the principle* of free speech.

    No it doesn’t, the social media platforms are private entities, they can edit as they choose, and they gave a clear explanation for the ban, not about free speech, Limbaugh doesn’t have to air every person who calls his show does he?

    well she is a REPUBLICAN so your mind cant process the distinctions -no problem

    my concern is the arbitrary and capricious nature of banning. i'm sure you get the idea that social media
    is the new so called "town square" -where instead of "getting on our soapbox" we log in to communicate

    It's not a healthy democracy where that is impeded -we need full political discourse
