The First Amendment does not protect anyone from censorship by Twitter managers/executives. It only protects against governmental censorship.

What concerns me is that any move by the GOVERNMENT to “remove” managers at Twitter, would definitely be a violation of the First Amendment. And yeah, that would require suspending parts of the Constitution.

I’m not on board.

A shake-up at Twitter shouldn’t come from the government.

Try telling a Black person they can’t shop in your store.

Try telling a homosexual you won’t bake them a cake for a
wedding.

Now, explain to me why those two things not run by the
government are impossible to do.

The first amendment is a civil right every bit as much
as a Black person having access.

Anyone participating on a comments web sight, has a
right to participate.

To not allow it, is denying their first amendment rights.

The majority has civil rights too.

Thanks.
