Why does it matter if powerful private corporations like Twitter, Google, & Facebook show massive bias in which accounts they shut down? Because, like it or not, social media is the public square of the 21st century They're monopolies & should be regulated like public utilities
Say more about why you think it's "not possible" an alternate Twitter or FB could have strong commitment to free speech & eschew censorship, "bannings" & suspensions (except in cases that rise to criminal incitement; what happened in Rwanda with radio incitement is instructive).

I was talking about the new ones. I think FB and TW can be regulated by outside public constraints. But that's not how it works now. Except both of the companies are responsible to USA government. That's also the reason why they're banned in China.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
