The problem is that a handful of companies have a monopoly on speech on the internet, and the executives of these companies get to act as the supreme arbiters of what speech is allowed. Yes, Twitter and Facebook are private companies, but so are Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Moblie - they don't get to cut your phone service for saying things they don't like.

Conservatives did try to make their own version of Twitter, Parler, and that ended up getting yeeted too.

These guys are ok with that. Or should I say this guy and his alt are ok with that.

True. I think it is worth noting that phone conversations and SMS are not public forum. Unlike, Twitter or potentially, Facebook.

I think it’s worth noting that you want to persecute and segregate people for their ideology because it contradicts with yours. So segregation is a good thing now. How do you reconcile that with your white guilt?

It's almost like this argument was waiting for me to win it.

I want to segregate people who conspire to overthrow the government :)
I want to segregate people who peddle unfound claims in dominion that have not yet been proven. I will read any link you supply.
I want to segregate people who choose to follow a conspiracy theory so far, they reject the decision of 63 courts, a DOJ investigation, now we're getting witness testimony (In the favor against the allegation.) , A supreme court decision, majority vote, recounts, etc. etc.
Yes, I want to segregate those people as they have shown they can't be trusted to have a public voice as it has now drin a mob of thousands of people, not hundreds like in a usual riot, but -THOUSANDS- to try to overthrow our government. It was insurrection.

Funny you didn’t want to segregate those who committed violence before. Your newfound outrage is somewhat insincere. Try and segregate 75 million plus. I dare you. The only way to do that is Civil war. Remember you called for it. Maybe you should have just left the election laws alone and kept counting in the states that cheated.

Nope, never called for civil war.

I mean, you haven't even tried to earn my respect so I'm gonna stop mincing words with you.
It's really telling that you believe the bullshit claims about Dominion. You don't even understand how the machines work, you just use the buzzword "Dominion!" as if it counted as fraud just because you say the name. I bet you couldn't even explain how they cheated.

I’ve never spoken about dominion in our back and forth. It’s ok that you project all your Trump derangement on me though. It exhibits your low iq and poor ability to reason. I treat as I am treated. As I recall your first response ever typed to me was a name calling rant. I don’t need you as my friend and wouldn’t want you as one. Disloyal hypocrites are not desirable traits in friendship. Your Respect? Bwahahahaah why would I want it. You respect traitors, totalitarians, communists and America haters. Ya I don’t need your respect, I would be offended by it. The election was a sham. We have a long way to go to restore faith in elections thanks to democrats and their frauds.

*Scans through text, skipping all of the pretentious inane babble.*
Okay, sidestepped Dominion again, not acknowledging one way or the other. Proving again, that you don't want to admit falling on your face, failing to address your own failures. :-) Not surprising. *Skims through more.*

America Haters? At least try to overthrow the seat of American Government.

More like:
Twitter Locomotive INC has had a raging hate-boner for Trump Locomotive Shipping for many years. Twitter Locomotive INC and the other big rail companies insist that they are open, neutral services just like the older stagecoach companies such as Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile, who will haul any cargo, and cannot deny service to anyone even if their services are used to commit crimes. But Twitter Locomotive INC and the other big rail companies also want the special privilege of being the supreme arbiters of what's allowed to be shipped on the world's rails. Twitter Locomotive INC used a riot as the excuse to finally have their way with Trump Locomotive Shipping, while simultaneously gladly providing services to BLM and Antifa Locomotive Shipping companies, including their members who started the CHAZ/CHOP, as well as Ayatollah Khamenei, Nicolas Maduro, RT Erdoğan, Saudi Royal Family, Emir of Qatar, Emir of Kuwait, and Communist Party of China Locomotive Shipping companies.

Amazon Railroad Industries agrees that Twitter Locomotive INC should be one of the supreme arbiters of what's allowed to be shipped on the world's rails, so when a great deal of people who like Trump Locomotive Shipping started using Parler Steam Engines & Co., Amazon proceeded to blow up Parler's trains.

What you want is basically the premise of the movie "Demolition Man" - in it, a rich tech executive named Dr. Raymond Cocteau forms a new society in which he is the sole supreme arbiter of what speech is allowed. Anyone who doesn't want to live his way is driven literally underground to live in the sewer.

Do you think it's a good thing that a handful of corporations have monarchical control over the world's public discourse? Do you think anyone who doesn't acquiesce to Dorsey and Zuckerberg's verbal morality statutes should be exiled from the internet?

Scans through because trigger is upset you mean. Too upset to read 😂 😂 😂. You said I talked about dominion, I didn’t. This means you’re to stupid to follow a simple conversation. The election was a fraud and so are you.

"What you're missing in this analogy is that Trump Shipping is using Twitter Service.
for many years. Twitter Locomotive INC
>> What you're missing here is that Twitter is a company that owns engines. Not railroads. They use the railroads."
Yes, I get that part of your analogy

">> They are the boxcars, no one can see what's inside them, they just carry the data.
and cannot deny service to anyone even if their services are used to commit crimes."
No, Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile are not like the boxcars. They are a much older format of shipping that predates the locomotive technology.

">> In this context, It is much harder to get rid of a group of low-profile companies (people) who fly under the radar, than one big company who requires the use of a lot of the locomotive's weight capacity (he's noticed more)"
BLM and Antifa are low-profile???

">> Provided that those companies do not violate the laws of their locomotive company they will continue to provide their services. That is capitalism. That is the free market. You call for small government, not big government and you want to dictate how businesses are run. Are you -SURE- you want to set that precedent? That is a very dangerous, slippery slope from which there is no returning."
No, I want them held to the standard of being neutral, open platforms that cannot deny anyone service, even if they are used to commit crimes, just as Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile are. The government doesn't tell those companies how to run their internal affairs, but they can't deny people service because of political disagreements or personal disliking. Twitter hates Trump because they feel he's a dictator, but the Ayatollah, Maduro, Erdoğan, the Arab monarchs, and the Chinese Communist Party are just fine under their worldview. Twitter feels that Trump incited a riot at the Capitol building, which they feel was an act of sedition, but BLM and Antifa looting and burning property that had nothing to do with the incident they were upset about, as well as establishing an independent anarcho-communist state on US soil were just "peaceful protests".

Amazon agrees that Twitter holds the correct, infallible worldview, so when a great deal of people who disagree with Twitter's infallible worldview started moving to another platform, Amazon decided that that heretical platform cannot be allowed to continue to exist.

>> Correction: Amazon railway found out what Trump shipping services did and commended the initiative of Twitter locomotive. Amazon found out that Parler was still doing business with Trump Shipping. Amazon said "If you wanna use my rails, you have to stop doing business with Trump as I want nothing to do with that."

Or, you can pull yourself up by the bootstraps, *Gasp* Get an education!? NOOOOO! Learn software engineering/design and host your own site which will only succeed on the merits of your dedication and conviction. Go ahead, no one is stopping you. This is Capitalism. We encourage ingenuity, and intellectual diversity. I can't wait to see your platform.

It's very simple. All trump had to do was abide this:
"Expected behavior
Treat others with dignity and respect.
Refrain from demeaning or discriminatory behavior and speech.
Be mindful of your surroundings and of your fellow participants.
Alert Twitter staff if you notice a dangerous situation or someone in distress.
Unacceptable behavior
Unacceptable behavior includes intimidating, harassing, abusive, discriminatory, derogatory or demeaning conduct by any attendees of Twitter Developer Community meetups.

Unacceptable behavior will not be tolerated. If someone is deemed to be acting in an unacceptable manner, staff may take any action they deem appropriate, including removing any person from the meetups or related events without warning, as warranted.

If you are subject to unacceptable behavior, notice that someone else is being subject to unacceptable behavior, or have any other concerns, please notify Twitter staff as soon as possible."

Trump failed lines one and two. Over and over and over and over again.

You break the contract, your time is void. Regardless of whatever rights he had, he forfeited the privilege to use their platform.

The privilege to refuse service under these pretenses is constitutionally valid and legal. If you can't follow these tenets, then you're doing something wrong.

"Your right to swing your arm, stops at my face."

Um, some people already tried doing that... John Matze, Jared Thompson, and Rebekah Mercer created Parler, and look what happened - it got yeeted too.
>> Doesn't mean it still can't happen. Keep trying! When you fall off the horse, you gotta pull up your bootstraps and try again!

As Bluessol pointed out, what happened to Parler would be like a railroad company saying that if people don't like their service, then they can go use horses, and then that company proceeding to slaughter all the horses.
>> False equivalency It's more like this:
Trump Locomotive Shipping service wants to use Twitter Locomotive INC to send messages back and forth to his people. Twitter Locomotive learns that he's conspiring to overthrow the government. Twitter says, no GTFO my train. Twitter reports their cease of business with Trump to the world and why. Trump LSS wants to instead make it's own locomotive service with Parler Steam Engines and Co. Parler, not caring about ethics gladly takes it on and carries the messages for Trump. Amazon Railroad Industries, the owner of the railroad itself says. "Yeah, message to all users of our railroad, do not house this company, they do bad business and we don't want any part of it.

More analogies?

They're spoiled children. They think they should get a Twitter account if the other kids get a Twitter account. Doesn't seem to matter to them that they were clearly not using it properly.

I don't think they understand that.

On the otherhand. One could look at this as segregation has inverted from the color of your skin, to the color of your character. Instead of having the free pass because of skin color, they're having to look a little more deeper. Perhaps? WDYT?

A big differentiating factor is you get banned from Twitter for what you do not who you are.
