The platform banning discussion we have recently lived through is insane.
I almost can’t even follow along.
Most:
All the platforms are banning my posts. I got demonetized and then I got banned for “misinformation?” All I am doing is questioning the status quo and sharing memes.
Them:
It’s a private company, they can ban and do whatever they want. If you don’t like it, get your own social media platform.
Most:
Hey look, Elon bought Twitter and rebranded it as X. He says you can post whatever you want as long as it does not break the law.
Them:
X should be banned. Misinformation should not be allowed.
Most:
Uh, it turns out – the government was behind all that censorship. The media companies weren’t even doing it. It was the government trying to control what people say in violation of the first ammendment.
Them:
You’re a right-wing bigot.
Most:
Wait, what?
