      I don’t remember any “world leaders” sweating Trump’s ban. Is he talking about like Bolsonaro and Duterte?pic.twitter.com/2VMojoJJUR

      GG is right about this. A bunch of governments -- genuine democratic ones -- in Europe & elsewhere -- were made uneasy by the fact this power was in hands of a private corps.https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-01-11/merkel-sees-closing-trump-s-social-media-accounts-problematic …

          Merkel and Obrador criticized Twitter banning Trump, and France’s finance minister said : “The regulation of the digital world cannot be done by the digital oligarchy”

          The first question in response to France’s finance minister should have been, “Should Twitter be allowed to have a Terms of Service, and, if so, should Trump have been exempt from Twitter’s terms of service?”

          Not being forced to regurgitate state speech is the foundation of the first amendment.https://twitter.com/_DrFunk/status/1477792343965245442?t=paGWwZfaSyiiJtJSfmBNTw&s=19 …

          A private company must publish state (US house rep) speech is not the pro first amendment argument you think it is.

          There is no freedom of speech as we have it in those nations, not exactly the same. No one tells the nyt or wapo what to print. If twitter is inconsistent it is its own prob. There are many social media sites, the foul right seems to have no prob makin one new one a week.

          Were any of these leaders Glenn respected? Why would he frame it this way, I wonder. And what do these world leaders have to do with our first amendment? It’s “funny” you mention Germany and how German leadership confronts Nazi propaganda and past leaders like Hitler.

          When does it become a problem for you? Are you blurring your use of “correct” with “factual” and constitutional differences with country interpretation? What ideology is glenn supporting? Will he be clear on anything without being extremely vague?https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/article/germanys-laws-antisemitic-hate-speech-nazi-propaganda-holocaust-denial/ …
