Well, actually by law they are either a net 'service' or a net 'content provider' - so, now that they censor political speech they are a provider and can be sued.

All it would take is one major legal case for the uncensored trash connected to a riot, murder or terrorist act.

They can claim they are a service provider all they want, but a court case will change it. Sadly, we cannot depend on a government agency to change their status.

Not sad. As freedom loving conservatives, we should always look to free market solutions. To disrupt the system, we must be willing to disrupt our lives.

For the “there oughta be a law”, laws are always a double edged sword and can be turned against freedom loving people.
The Hammond ranchers were prosecuted under an anti-terror law. See how that works?

I have no problem with a court case, if the platforms are breaking the law or denying civil rights, they should be sued. That is law and order.

another way to go is to massively report LEFTIST accounts, especially ones who promote violence, like antifa and jihadis.

If they ban the accounts, good. If they dont, even better, make them explain why not.
