@McGentrix,
Quote:This is someone's paid for platform and the owner chose people to decide what is acceptably and what is not based on some loose guideline or another.
"loose guideline" is the wrong term. "Selectively enforced guideline based on political ideology" is the correct description for what's very obviously going on here.
I have no problem with private companies deciding how to run their platforms.
That being said, there are very clear double standards being enforced here. That needs to be noted, because it is incontrovertibly true.
There is no point in posting 'rules' and pretending that they apply here to everyone equally. They don't. The rules are selectively enforced against conservatives and in favor of liberals.
Why not just say that? Why not just put in the rules that conservative opinions will face much stricter scrutiny and censorship than liberals?
You want to use the 'private company' defense'? Fine. But be transparent. Don't feign impartiality when that is just is not being enforced.
Like all liberal tech companies, they want their cake and to eat it too. they want to be seen as being impartial, and yet decide who gets to speak and who doesn't based on nothing but ideology.
Textbook liberal hypocrisy. I'm just pointing it out.
