#53Free speech extremists seriously think a private company should be forced to keep someone who uses their platform to incite deadly riots. Trump's free speech here has consequences. 5 people have died.
Yes, those free speech extremists. They are as bad as those pursuit of hapiness extremists or the life and liberty extremists. Where do they think they are to expect to be able to exercise their rights, just think of the children.

#54Is it just my perception, or is their actual justification using the 2 quoted tweets kinda weak? Interpreting his boycott of an event as a call to violence seems like a huge stretch. It seems like they wanted to shoehorn a justification using his 2 latest tweets when the actual reason goes back further.

Can you tell me anywhere this isn't the case besides maybe people raving on the street? Genuinely asking.

#58global communications platforms should allow all legal posts. this is dumb precedent and these 2 tweets are pretty tame
