I hope everyone I butted heads with on this finally realizes that the free market is not going to solve this.

Corporate America is inherently hostile to the 1st Amendment, we have to rein them in by force.

They don’t specify what they mean by “deplatformed.” Were they on a cloud provider who pulled the plug on them? Which cloud platform? AWS? Azure? Google? That’s a seriously egregious violation of most cloud contracts, so I doubt that’s it.

In all likelihood they were hosted somewhere, and that host either redirected their DNS or shut down their ingress points. Still egregious, but if you’re not in control of your platform at the infrastructure level, you’re at the whim of digital tyrants.

Unfortunately there are those who have gone full libertardian.

Being a shill more megacorps in the 80's and before was so much more fun when they were quasi-conservative. Now that they are libtard the libertardians will hopefully wake up and smell the half-caf-soy-latte.

I hate when Freepers post that nonsense. It is a cheese-eating, surrender monkey attitude.

I thought YouTube was a monopoly with no alternatives, which is why they shouldn't be allowed to moderate their content.
