content: As a brilliant Ars commentator posted, the problem isn't so much that a private entity started restricting what goes in its platform, at the end of the day we are free to create a competitor and migrate; the problem comes from this disgusting culture of censorship. (While there is very valid debate to have about private platforms holding near monopolies, this is not the time to discuss it) Basically, under some flawed and completely baseless assumptions some groups have come to the conclusion that speech is a weapon in the hands of certain individuals; naturally, they will defend the same speech when used by other groups... well, we are used to the hypocrisy and complete lack of self-awareness from these dishonest hacks.  Not to mention that we already have tools to deal when speech actually causes real harm: defamation, libel, slander, etc... Anyway, what makes me sick is that they had the audacity to move from "it's not censorship, it's persuasion" to "censorship is necessary for free speech". Oh well... I'm tempted to hide behind some big rock until all this nonsense finally ends.
