So a mega-arch intends to buy a property from a bunch of oligarchs.

Why should anyone be happy or excited about this? It's the richest man in the world earning a higher net value.

Think his first action will be to unban trump?

My brother thinks it was illegal because of "carrier laws", which Twitter is not beholden to.

Private company. Constitution does not apply to it, even if he was/is a politician.

Trump will be back.

That's what we tried to explain ad nauseum, but he kept going on and on about how social media is the new "town square".

He's a brainwashed moron who listens to people who got their doctorate from YouTube University.

I don’t think this is a simple issue. Twitter and Facebook are indeed private businesses, but anyone that doesn’t see that these social media companies have basically become the main way people communicate with each other in the same way text messaging became the older generations preferred method, which WAS considered a utility, just aren’t really seeing the bigger picture, imo.

Also, Twitter IS currently protected under a similar utility and carrier protection from being sued for what’s posted.

I just laugh at the idiots who think they can post and say whatever they want then yell “MUH FREEDOM!!!” when they get banned or in trouble for it lol. Sometimes it may not be fair, and it may be hypocritical of them to ban for one thing and not the other, 100% agree there. But the folks who think it’s stepping on their Freedom of Speech are dumb IMO. Because as long as you aren’t being tossed in real jail or anything like that for your opinion, you still have the freedoms to say what you want. But these sites also have the Freedom to not want you there.
