Free speech or hate speech??

[SunriseChampion]

I'm too lazy to get into this with anything more substantial than this:

Big ups to the head librarian for standing up for what a library is supposed to be about, which is the free exchange of ideas.


The fascist protesters can cry their rivers...we know how to swim.

I didn't even know who this lady was who was speaking...

The speaker was banned for life from Twitter for personally attacking a number of trans users.

Which is saying a lot considering what a sewer Twitter has become.

Yeah, I'll tell you what that something it says is: Twitter bans are arbitrarily applied.

 

[Neutrino]

Twitter's management has a socjus orientation and bans those who are against it.

Even Gab bans people and they permit pretty much anything.

Banning "offensive" speech does nothing to strengthen anyone's character or intelligence.

What's Gab?

Not who ... what. https://gab.com/

Gab has become a refuge for some of the anti socjus provocateurs on YouTube and Twitter. Some of the people driven to gab are just that - provocateurs satirizing socjus culture. Most are harmless. But Twitter et al overreact and make things worse by driving these people underground where they run the risk of truly radicalizing. The tech sphere is so extreme in its social justice orientation that they cannot tolerate reasonable criticism of social justice politics. Plus Twitter does little to nothing to restrain the extremism on the other side of the aisle. As far as I know, no one ever got banned for toxic socjus rhetoric.

Twitter is known for letting Nazis and white supremacist run rampant.

It's laughable to say there is too much social justice on it

 

[Neutrino]

^Now that's laughable LOL
Twitter's orientation as a whole is socjus which leads them to do nothing against widespread hateful rhetoric from prominent leftists. Essentially the tech world gives their blessing to the extreme left while stirring an exaggerated moral panic over the extreme right online.

Ya right

Twitter Still Has A White Nationalist Problem

Almost 18 months after Twitter promised to crack down on hate, the platform teems with racist extremists.

Using Huffpost as a source. That was your first mistake.

Cheers, though that was short-lived. Immediate request to register.
Nooooope.

I was hoping to have a laugh. Guess I'm stuck with YouTube. (I can't stop laughing at conspiracy theorists being shredded).
