True. But allowing criticism but censoring those being criticized is dangerous.I don't want to get in the way of you beating up on "lefties", but this makes no sense. Asking whether censorship is right or wrong is like asking if criticism is right or wrong.There is only one moral standard. That's why it is called a standard. Lefties do not live by any standard besides what feels good to them in the moment. The notion that right and wrong are subjective is simply how lefties see them, since they do not follow THE standard. Lefties can only conflate right and wrong with legal vs illegal.Right and wrong are subjective.If we are going to deviate from the thread topic, I would rather start out by debating if it is right or wrong for them to do it. Not if they have the right to do it or if it is legal, but if it is right or wrong. Lefties will never get around to discussing this, so it has to be discussed first. Is it right or wrong for them to do it?It is amazing to see all the assumptions that people are making about me on this thread. I have only asked who censors more between the government and private sector, and I have pointed out how much lefties fight to defend censorship. I did anticipate that lefties would be trying to evade and derail the thread, as seen in the opening post, but thats about all I have really said.You want government to bully Facebook for you. That's really all this is about.
Alright. Then let's cut the bullshit. Do you think Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc... have a right to censor content on their platforms?
The facts are that no private entity can violate your first amendment rights nor can they stop you from saying or writing whatever you want.
You seem to want to think that any private sector entity has to provide you an audience for your speech.
I recall my posting something on Facebook before I cancelled my account. My sister posted something about what the "Best investigative reporter, Rachel Maddow, found out about Trump". I responded to her by saying calling Rachel Maddow an investigative reporter is like calling Sean Hannity and investigative reporter". They are both opinionists.
She promptly deleted my post and then posted on her page how her brother (me) thinks Sean Hannity is much more informative, reasonable and knowledgeable reporter than Rachel Maddow.
She outright lied about what I posted...the post she deleted for no one to see. ..... and the result? Hateful comments on my page about my upbringing, my shame and my immaturity.
That was the last day I went on Facebook and the last day I spoke to my sister.
Criticism and censorship do not work well together
