    You can disagree with their reason, but they don’t have to have a reason. Non government business can do whatever it wants.

    I posted a link for discussion. If I was for communism, you would be banned for disagreeing with me.
    Technically speaking. You are a private business and reserve the right to ban me. Which is free market. Opposite of communism.

    These tech companies are quickly approaching a reckoning with their big brother shit. The more they do things like this, the more people will look the other way if the government starts cracking down on them. Let the government fuck them up a bit until they learn their lesson and recognize they are not the arbiters of speech. Then continue to weaken the power of the government and shrink it so the government isn't too powerful either.

    OBK is for government intervention before he's for the breakup of government.
