romeostruedude 0 Posted January 9, 2021 Well. You are literally talking to diff subjects. Twitter isn’t in the wrong. Trump’s free speech isn’t broken. There’s no Orwellian future just cuz a crazy man who called for the desecration of Congress has been banned.I was hoping to just clear the air of any misunderstanding.

Noleen#7811 3 Posted January 9, 2021 i was making a comparisoni don't care about american free speech, i care about everyone being treated the same and in Trump case he's not, and if someone in his position can be "targeted" like that, I think it's worryingbut I know that discussing this with someone who dislike Trump is pointlessso I'll just stop Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
romeostruedude 0 Posted January 9, 2021 Free Speech is NOT APPLICABLE to social media. Why? Cuz of TERMS & AGREEMENTS when signing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

romeostruedude 0 Posted January 9, 2021 And he deserves far more than bans on social media. He got people killed! It’s saddening!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

romeostruedude 0 Posted January 9, 2021 No. People died. It’s not “whatever”. It’s a sad sad day to know that this could’ve been avoided. You don’t get to say “whatever” to people legit dying. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

romeostruedude 0 Posted January 9, 2021 Again was only hoping to clear the air on the whole “being targeted for free speech” or help fix issues that sounded alarming. But were just dishonest comparisons. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Epheymer 14 Posted January 9, 2021 I'm not saying Trump is the only one going too far on Twitter, first. Secondly, yeah, free speech is a beautiful thing, a very necessary thing. But, and this COVID crisis made me think that more and more, it should be something you should be worthy of, not have as soon as you can express yourself. I'm for free speech, but when people are spreading very wrong things (conspiracy theories by example), they go way too far. So yeah, free speech is important, but like everything, it can be used wrongly, and people using it as such shouldn't be granted this privilege. There's a difference between saying something, wrong or right, and spreading chaos through ill-advised messages. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sam N 10 Posted January 10, 2021 The issue with this is how do you decide who is worthy, and more importantly WHO makes this decision? Frankly, I think the mere concept of another human deciding who gets to speak and who doesn't is the very height of arrogance. And like Noleen said, this is a power that can be very easily abused. If the president of the United States can be silenced, what exactly is stopping Twitter from shutting up anyone who disagrees with them? Where is the line drawn?This isn't to imply that free speech should go without consequences; just that judging those consequences and who is deserving of them is a complicated issue that should not be decided by any individual entity. It's something we as a society need to come to a consensus on; not Twitter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inçendyne 31 Posted January 10, 2021 I think the point is to say that people aren't going to get special privileges and a free pass for abusing the terms of the platform in such a way that is harmful b/c of status. He's free outside of it. They just don't want a person using their platform to incite such acts and feel that may be connected. W/ his recent concession video, there were many disgruntled supporters that called him a coward and most likely added to the threats he received, so one can also see it as protection and to prevent another person from digging themselves a deeper hole.
