'Free Speech' is just a dog whistle for 'Conservatives can say whatever they want and not face even so much as criticism for it'. Why do you think they never speak up about it when leftists are silenced or censored? Maza never called for a flagging campaign.

“Dog whistle” is a dog whistle for, “I just want to censor people I disagree with.” Also amazing that free speech was promoted strongly by the left up to around the Occupy time. Now censorship is the modus operandi. But you think it’s just the right. Hell ACLU was big into it

Nobody's preventing you from posting videos on your own website.

The Private Company argument simply does not work, For Example, would you consider it just if Twitter just banned every left winger for hate speech and their only response to it was that they can simply go to a different social media page?

Leftists, by and large, don't peddle hate speech. Hate speech has a meaning, and as much as it upsets you, it's overwhelming done by the right, not the left.

But this is the rules for thee and not for me argument, Hate Speech is a subjective term, Would you consider it fair, if Conservatives suddenly started considering basic left-wing arguments to be hate speech and then banning them for it?

Well the first issue with that, would be that it's not actually hate speech. So no, I wouldn't like it if people started labelling things that aren't hate speech, hate speech.

But again that it my point, Hate Speech is a subjective term, Different people define it in different ways, Twitter is considering many basic Conservative arguments to be hate speech and is using that as an excuse to ban then and i am making the point that...

That could very easily be flipped and basic left-wing views could be considered hate speech and people could be banned for expressing them, It is a slippery slope to ban anyone purely on the basis that you don't like their opinion

You know, for people who whine constantly about post-modernism, y'all are quick to jump and say 'everything is meaningless and only means whatever I personally think it means at this precise moment'.

Hate Speech is a subjective term that is why most companies and people define it differently. We should simply not ban any speech, We fought hard to get out right to speak and now people are trying to take it away because they want their opponents censored.
