if you're not paying them, they have to eat some way

You are though

You are forcing association

How is wanting free speech asking for their help

@Beemann the point being that these are not indivual companies when they all ban someone from their platforms around the same time, even when he never used some of the platforms

Twitter has to bake the Alex Jones cake

This seems out of hand

This is actually just Gay Cakes: Web 2.0 edition

its not really free speech, its more that you're requiring them to give you a megaphone to the world

No

do we have a right to megaphones

I'm not asking for them to make sure certain people hear me

Just don't silence me

@NativeInterface actually the safe harbour laws they signed are supposed to make them give people megaphones to the world

You saying freedom to say something is akin to getting a megaphone is absurd

You're demanding that they let you use their service for your own personal purposes due to the audience you can gather on there

well we can talk about the laws, or we can talk about reason and philosophy

Twitter *is* a megaphone m8

@Beemann That is the point of social media

It's a multi million user email list

when you're sayin "silencing" whats actually happening is that they refuse to cooperate with you

laws that they openly violate. Remember twitter argued that donald trump's twitter page is a town square and that no one can be banned from it ever (their own words).

So you're saying that it is totally fine for them to have bias and blast Antifa messages on trending?

they are not literally putting duct tape over your mouth, thats more of a metaphore

So according to twitter, NO one can be blocked from accessing and posting on donald trump's twitter page

Sure, and you know what? I'd rather people see twitter blow up total whackjob shit

per twitter's own rules, they cannot ban anyone

It'll die much faster that way

Alright so you guys are pure economic libertarians

im just trying to have a neutral discussion of what is what, if you want to force cooperation then thats your opinion and should be respected, but you should be aware of what you're saying without muddying the water with metaphores

Right and Alex Jones should challenge that shit because it's a terrible decision

Because either he gets back on twatter or they let Trump block people

Who here even likes Alex Jones really

I'd rather that the latter happens frankly

i kinda like him

@NativeInterface think about that. Per twitter's own rules, no person can be banned from posting on donald trump's twitter page because it is officially in their rules a town square. They removed trump's ability to block people from his page based on that

Why

Alex Jones is a gift

he's quite charming, and he means well

Is he

He's fucking hilarious and he seems like a cool dude to hang out with when he isn't high as balls
