Let's hope Twitter bans EVERYONE that isn't woke enough for their liking.

Private companies have a Constitution right to decide what they will allow or not...their is no right to free speech from the product or service receipient...
... especially when they pay NOTHING to use the product/service.

Yes, that's what it is.
Awwwwww someone doesn't like their anti-free speech comrades being called out for being anti-free speech comrades.
TOO BAD!!
I never said otherwise, as you may have noticed I 100% support them banning as many people as they want.
Still censorship, still anti-free speech.
LOL.....you think I have a Twitter?
LMFAO!!!

Poor soldierboy.
I’m not anti-free speech. And neither are Twitter or Literotica, for that matter.
It’s already glaringly obvious you can’t wrap your wee head around Lit’s - a privately owned website - few rules and Terms of Service.
Why would you be able to comprehend Twitter’s - also privately owned - rules and TOS? (RHETORICAL)
You also need to brush up on just what the First Amendment is, and how it is applies in this case.
The Freedom of Speech you wail about is there to prevent big, bad government from stopping your free expression and speech, a freedom that - and here is where the cogs in your head grind and groan - is also afforded to private companies, such as Literotica and Twitter, when they - using their freedom of speech and expression - decide what they wish to publish on their platforms, the terms of which are outlined in their TOS.
There are no laws, or anything in the Constitution for that matter, that restricts or dictates what privately owned websites (Lit) or social media platforms (Twitter, Facebook, etc) can decide to publish. No matter how much of a hissy fit those unable to comprehend this (see: you, AJ, Ishmael, Trump, and MyPillow fella) throw.
If you, or any of your fellow willfully ignorant RWCJ members don’t like it, you can take yourselves to a different website, or use a different social media platform, one that accommodates your ‘free speech’.
The fact is, freedom of speech is not your right to say or express whatever you want on a site or platform that doesn’t allow it, as per their TOS.
You can’t claim anti-nourishment when you go into a Chinese restaurant (which has their TOS outlined on their menu) and demand a pizza. You want pizza, go to a pizza joint. Maybe grab a pie from Comet Ping Pong.

That was an unassailable windmill of logic that Creeping Charlie will be unable to resist tilting against.

You're conflating legally protected speech and 1st amendment civil rights, with free speech.
Not the same things.
I 100% support private companies right to refuse service to anyone for any reason...regardless of whatever asshole reasoning. If Twitter wants to turn their product into the puritanical echo chamber of woke? That's their bidnizz. I don't care.
Doesn't change the fact that they are censoring their product and censorship is anti-free speech.

It was a blatant false equivalency fallacy up front.....legally protected speech =/= free speech......not shocking you didn't see that.

Looks to me like Twitter is trying to preserve our rights of free speech, by limiting those who abuse it.

That is correct.'In order to save free speech, Twitter had to censor it.'
LOL
Don’t like it? Fuck off.

Categories of speech that are given lesser or no protection by the First Amendment (and therefore may be restricted) include obscenity, FRAUD, child pornography, speech integral to illegal conduct, speech that incites imminent lawless action, speech that violates intellectual property law, true threats, and commercial speech such as advertising. Along with communicative restrictions, less protection is afforded for uninhibited speech when the government acts as subsidizer or speaker, is an employer, controls education, or regulates the mail, airwaves, legal bar, military, prisons, and immigration. So we the people do not have the unlimited right to free speech.You're conflating legally protected speech and 1st amendment civil rights, with free speech.

With regard to your belief that private companies should have the right to refuse product or service to anyone for any reason, I couldn't disagree more. First and foremost, the business is not a person, it's an entity and therefore should have no human rights. Second, without a prior agreement and compensation between two parties, no one should have the right to impose their beliefs or actions on another which, by doing so, violates the other person's rights.
Didn't you read Creeping Charlie's earlier post???
The irritating weed doesn't care if Twitter, Lit, etc ban idiots from their platforms for engaging in hate speech.
I guess this is the potted plant NOT caring.

More lies from BotanyBoy who has been documented lying in each of his posts.
It’s up to you to show that people have lost the right to free speech or are being censored. You can’t because they aren’t.
