the descent into totalitarian censorship is asymptotic and we're reaching the event horizon in 2020
This is just fucking ridiculous at this point

Twitter being allowed to moderate their own privately owned platform is literally the opposite of totalitarian

Twitter controlling a monopolistic share of the public square and exerting censorship over free expression all the way up from common people to the president is totalitarianism at its finest.
All blow before the almighty censors who decide who is allowed to talk and who is not. Its not even about what they have to say anymore, its just censorship for its own sake.

Trump says 'I will use enforce the laws, as the constitution demands I see faithfully executed' -> "Flagged as a threat of harm"
The Ayatollah says 'I will wipe Israel off the map' -> "Totally a-okay"

I know you're a big fan of Hitler but repeating the lie that social media platforms are a monopoly enough times won't make it true.

I, for one, support the right for private platforms to only host the things they want. I don't understand a libertarian being a part of the push for big government forcing private businesses to host speech they don't want to.
