something equivalent about Obama, no way would he be still employed much less in some ethics position.

You're asking this in the context

of uproar over Trump "censorship" on Twitter, though.
How does a President like Trump stay employed in a legit government?
The answer is the same for both, I guess?

dude, the great thing about freedom of speech
May 29, 2020, 2:12 PM

is you're allowed to be as stupid as you want.
These platforms shouldn't be in the business of quashing speech they don't like.
As long as it isn't illegal, you should be allowed to say anything you want.
or thats how the internet was built.
These mega companies have lost all sense of freedom of speech.
Make fun of other platforms you like, but at least they are more free.

Off the top of my head, here is a short list of conversation topics that I would take seriously:
1. A significant amount of people get their news solely from social media, do these companies have a responsibility to fact check?
2. Should the President of the United States be held to a different standard when it comes to what he says and does?
3. How do we maintain freedom of speech without accepting hatred/bigotry/racism?
4. Do our current anti-trust laws adequately address Amazon/Alphabet/Facebook?
Yet here we are so I'm going to make fun of the President and Gab.

It's all the same. Social media is a disease.

Part of me says open them up to liability and let them all decline into puppy dog posts. Social media is the LAST place I turn to for "news", whatever that is these days.

I must be missing something, did the man censor Trump

Did they suspend his account? What they do?
I'm confused by all you hyper-sensitive drama-queen snowflakes pretending to be manly.
