It’s okay and expected for a private news outlet to publish slanted stories. However, Twitter is a privately-owned public chat venue, just like a southern lunch counter. The Supreme Court has ruled that it is illegal for such venues to discriminate on the basis of race because they speak as governments, on behalf of the entire community.

That’s illegal. However, when it comes to speech discrimination, that’s the purview of the Constitution. It’s unconstitutional for a privately-held public venue to discriminate against speech which the owner disagrees with. The owner is speaking as a government, on behalf the entire community.

“While we don’t know for sure this is also happening at Google, Meta, or TikTok...”

When they started coordinating and synchronizing their bans it became obvious. Including platforms banning people for things said on other, supposedly “competing” platforms, even though that can’t in any way be construed to violate any terms of service.

I guess it’s true we don’t “have the receipts” like we do for twitter, but they are most definitely doing the same thing, and either coordinating with each other, or perhaps more likely now in light of recent revelations, being coordinated by the same players in the government.
