That is an outright lie. Those banned for harassment should remain banned, but many have been banned for ideological shit, like misgendering. For blanket statements like “men can’t be women”. For speaking out against things they disagree with. It’s ridiculous.

I tend to agree with a 1980s right-wing Central American death squad leader's description of centrism:

 

The political center is like an anus - it's round, it stinks, and it's full of shit.

No, that’s not it. I gave you an example.

 

know who isn’t banned for harassing innocent kids who wore the wrong hat? Kathy Griffin who encouraged others to doxx him, as well as the journalist who called for his death on twitter, multiple times. 

 

But hey, bad ideas are what’s dangerous right? Not inciting hatred and violence and harassment?

They've also banned an antifa group for posting Tucker Carlson's home address. And David Duke(bona fide white nationalist) still has a Twitter account. What's your point? Twitter should probably be enforcing their tos more strenuously but there is no anti conservative bias for ideological reasons.

and if free speech is a far right view to the left, then the left is as bad as the far right are.

 

That's because you don't understand what free speech is. No one has a right to amplify white supremacy. No Nazi had a right to twitter. 

 

Just as you don't understand that Gabbard was trying to be progressive.

 

Your views are bad. Left views are always adopted later by the courageous centrists.

When a platform has the power of twitter, freedom of speech should be our paramount concern. And yes I know what free speech is. It’s nothing to do with your limited view of it.

When it comes to speech I completely agree with the far right, which is the only interpretation there is. I don’t agree with their views, but I agree with their right to express them. Racism and hate are protected speech, and are best sanitized in the light of day. Instead you force it into dark corners to fester and get worst.

They have a right to express them. They don't have a right to be untouched on Twitter, and forcing Twitter to accommodate them is hilarious as a so-called moderate position. A right to speak does not mean a right to be heard. Again it makes sense that a supposed Centrist holds far-right news. Moderates aren't actually moderate.

 

The more amusing thing is that they've been allowed to grow because they've left unchecked. Your way has already failed. The sensible Progressive position, as usual, it's the one that's correct and it's usually one that's adopted or eventually is adopted by moderates you see the light later and claim moral High Ground.

With Viyaja sitting next to him, he stated, “yes, Twitter certainly has a liberal bias”, when asked by Tim Poole if he thought it was biased or not.

I’m not claiming a moral high ground. I’m saying Twitter has become so important that free speech must be enforced on it. And no, the progressives aren’t right. The progressives are turning into fascists. Fuck, today they are on twitter trying to cancel Joe Rogan for fighting for free speech and having Poole question Dorsey.

The only true solution is publicly execute Zuckerberg, Bezos, and Dorsey and make it a pay-per-view event.

That’s the goddamn transcript. There was no deeper question, it was simply “would you say twitter has a liberal bias” and Dorsey said, “yes we certainly have a liberal bias” (may not be exact words). There was no other context.

Okay? It's a private company. If Twitter were to enact "free speech", it would lose it's advertising revenue and go out of business, meaning it have to be subsidized by tax payers.

No, it wouldn’t. 

 

Again, twitter is too important to elections and political discourse to allow it to moderate views that are offensive to the left. As long as those views don’t target a specific person,.

 

i suppose you think the #learntocode bannings were justified too?

I watched, Rogan actually turned on Pool at the end when Pool mentioned he's purchased a van for when the civil war starts and said the entire controversy was completely overblown basically calling Pool a fool.

So you won’t check for yourself, but you won’t take an almost word for word explanation. Totally resonable. There was no further context, Dorsey was just being more honest than you.
