Twitter’s decision to ban the president—all while Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei, China’s propaganda arm, Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, & many others use the platform to amplify hate & violence—is wrong & further reinforces the urgent need to reform Section 230 exemptions. (1/2)

Platforms should never pick winners & losers. And while this is yet another troubling example of Conservative censorship, we must be clear that silencing any legitimate political debate is not the answer as we seek a path forward in a world hungry for objectivity & truth. (2/2)

Even though I normally think highly of you, I disagree. Free speech does not mean that there are consequences of that speech. You have to have equal responsibility to balance the huge authority of the presidency.

At what point does the further collusion across platforms breach the realm of anti-trust? Ma Bell was in trouble for a lot less insidious conduct.

A major difference: people in those countries are not free to protest their leaders on these platforms. We are. The people have spoken and social media platforms are afraid. And they should be. #WeWillNeverForget0106

Y’all are all completely wrong about this, and please could you stop talking about section 230 like you understand what it does. Vote for Trump’s removal and call for the resignations of the five SC House members who attended the attack on Wednesday.

You need to stop following Lindsey Graham down the rabbit hole. Why fault Twitter for doing what should have been done 4 years ago. No one should abuse their platform and Trump did!!!!!

People upset about this are missing the point.
