In a Republic, actually
‘President-elect Donald Trump has selected Andrew Ferguson to be the next chair of the Federal Trade Commission. Ferguson will take over for Lina Khan, who has earned praise from Vice President-elect J.D. Vance for her efforts to fight big tech.

“Andrew has a proven record of standing up to Big Tech censorship, and protecting Freedom of Speech in our Great Country,” Trump says in a post on Truth Social.

According to a document obtained by Punchbowl News’ Ben Brody, Ferguson’s pitch for the job included intentions to “reverse Lina Khan’s anti-business agenda,” “hold big tech accountable and stop censorship,” and “protect freedom of speech and fight wokeness.” The document also said Ferguson would “fight back against the trans agenda.”’


Until the Trump Court rules otherwise, private social media are at liberty to edit their content as they see fit, to exclude whomever they wish, and to engage in free expression, no matter how ‘woke,’ consistent with the First Amendment right of freedom of association and freedom of the press.

Indeed, freedom of speech concerns solely the relationship between government and those governed, not between or among private persons or private entities, such as social media.

In fact, for government to attempt to stop ‘censorship’ and fight ‘wokeness’ would be in violation of the First Amendment and to deny freedom of speech, not protect it.

Attacking opposition media is classic fascism.

Wrong. Freedom of Speech is a right we all have. The First Amendment protects it from the federal government. That’s called democracy doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be protected from corporations.

Think about what you just said….. stopping censorship is a violation of The First Amendment?
 
Free speech is critical to the success of a nation. Through it all innovation and spiritually creativity flows.
