The thing is when you agree to use these websites you sign a contract and that means they can ban you if you break the terms of service

You already agreed that you could be kicked

You don't like it make your own website

The point I should take out of our conversation is that I can ban whomever I want for whatever reason I want. And any complaining from any of you would be hypocritical.

Sure, but we wouldn’t be claiming that you banning us is A. Censoring us or B. Violating our right to free speech

You are well within your right to ban people

It wouldn't be censoring according to the definition tho

But yes you are within your right to do it

However it would be a dick move

And if I ban anyone...I don’t even need to explain myself. 😃

Nope

Basically having certain rules like we already do is censorship

But it’s not censorship and it’s not violating free speech

I mean you could take that point, however I think you'd be missing my point that I didn't break any of the agreed upon rules. FB can ban anyone that breaks their terms of service by knowingly spreading fake news

👀 it's censorship

Omg guys. I think I’ve changed my mind on this censorship thing. Perhaps I might like it better this way. Thanks for your help in changing my mind.

If you banned anyone who disagrees with the FE model then you might be toeing the line of censorship but it’s still not violating free speech

If I started sending satanic images, then yeah ban me. Or if I was being a dick yeah ban me. But that's a false equivalence if you ban me for "no reason"

*cough* 24/7 *cough*

Having rules is a form of censorship

You not allowing me to be rude is basically still censorship

Not a violation of free speech

@I-VaPE-ChEMtrAiLS It is. my right to ban you for whatever reason I see fit. You guys said so.

I elaborated on my point above

Yes, @The Gwench but you have to have a rule against it first

And you can make rules as you see fit

Also rules aren't censorship, if I break my tenancy agreement I'm not being censored. If I break the law I'm not getting censored

@Satan No I don’t. It’s my server...and if I don’t want certain content on my server...I don’t have to.

@Satan the thing is everyone agrees on mainsteam social media rules

Prohibiting someone from doing something is censorship

That's literally what it is

When you make a YT account you agree not to incite anything or break the rules

That's not my point nat

I'm being censored from robbing this bank? Or am I missing it more?

I'm not saying yt banning someone because they did something against the rules is wrong

@Satan Huh? No it isn’t. @I-VaPE-ChEMtrAiLS and @xXPuppyLoverXx convinced me of that.

But rules itself are a censorship since you're prohibiting someone from doing something

I mean what happens with no rules? you seem to be against the concept of rules

@Satan I suggest talking to @I-VaPE-ChEMtrAiLS and @xXPuppyLoverXx. They’re the ones working against you.
