"This all, of course, ignores the fact that social media companies have bent over backwards to accommodate Trump, such as by letting him have a platform even though he violates the site's TOS constantly. Social media companies will surely fight this in court, so we're in for what looks to be a long, exhausting battle."

I want to be treated fairly without the bias of those at Google et al limiting my freedom.
Big tech has proven they are biased against Trump and for the socialist left (and that is against me.)
That is what this should be about.
If Trump wants to use his office to force big tech to give everyone the freedom guaranteed, it's fine with me.
If not, then it's just another case of those in power (both in government and in business) getting more freedom and denying freedom that is guaranteed to everyone.

Social media is already pretty ugly, horrible content all over the place, threatening and condescending.
What is being blocked is the reasoned responsed to that threatening, condescending posts and tweets.

Trump should hold them to the fire, "Are Ye Platform of Publisher."..choose or forever hold your delete button.

There was a heading on a NewsCorp site.
I wanted to get the details so I went to my usual search engine. It is not Gg but uses Gg. I had to go to the 5th page before seeing a ref not from the usual wokist/left/green outlets.

Here is a link to the text, without using Gg I hope, or the lefty vice.com:

They are clearly censoring views that are important and based in reality. In fact, they shouldn't be censoring anything. This main tool for socializing (AND BASIC INFORMATION - GOOGLE) being used the way it's being used, for social engineering, is scary to me. We should certainly be guarded against it.
