Hmmm. I made a post or two or three about Freedom of Speech online back around Aug of 2019 and FaceBook snubbed it and put me on a time out for publishing. Now that Elon is pointing out the error of Twitter with the Data Dump yesterday, do I dare to say it again? Yeah. I'll try to use my Freedom of Speech about Freedom of Speech once more.
Heck I'll give it a repost here on this google controlled Blogger page to see if I get de-platformed for it. Hope not. I like posting on the web.

Online Free Speech protections are needed.
This medium here on FB is effectively a Town Square.
There is supreme court case deciding that even though the town square is a private enterprise if it acts like a Town Square it still needs to behave with tolerance to Free Speech Rights.
See: Marsh v Alabama

Other discussion topics were censured over and over again. Their use of the term "Community Standards" must only mean in their little Echo Chamber the super Lefty Community ideals are all that is allowed to be talked about.
But in the Free Sharing of Ideas model, the most useful and helpful and smart does rise to the top. Only with stifling of opposing views can socialists and communist and Green New Deal destruction of our civil and free society succeed. It's big tech workers doing the dirty work by shutting down posts like this one. Not just me. But all over the place.
Check this out. Has a Date Stamp on it. I figure it violated some lefty green new deal editor's religion of Climate Change fanaticism. It was not rude. But is just an example of how the silencing of reasonable debate was pulled off.
In the end... This is another example of our current Age of Disenlightenment where the punks in charge think they can push all the Moderates and the Independents and Libertarians into the same bucket of the Evil Republicans and ONLY let the far lefty Progressives have the soap box to freely espouse their politics only.
These mediums of Twitter and Facebook and Google(YouTube & search) and Microsoft and TicTok think they are the ONLY source of information. They are for those that value this online medium. AND MSM news does. But there are MILLIONS of Americans that do not use it.
How do we get beyond this #AgeofDisenlightenment where the lefty types have brought forth and forced a bunch of digital muzzles on the reasonable and polite average person.
Do we have to hope that Twitter and Parler and Rumble.com actually survive and thrive to prove that Freedom is a better model on the world wide web?
Hope Freedom wins out. It is a hope for the world my grandchildren will be growing up in.
Now go check out that Supreme Court case ruling - Marsh v Alabama in 1946
