Hey, they want to treat private companies like public utilities, that's fine. Just don't come crying when investments dry up or people start kneeling for the anthem.
800 independent media outlets on Facebook have been purged - nearly every single one offering conservative perspectives. Not a single liberal media outlet promoting ANTIFA, BLM and other violent movements was purged. This is an issue. The regulation is coming.... and Internet companies can only blame themselves for it when it arrives.
"Media outlets" is a bit strong. " Look guys, I just started this blog and am spamming memes; I'm media now"
Yes... and if your memes and conservative blog do not promote violence against others then why are you banned.... while the blog promoting that ANTIFA people should go out and actively beat people up is supported.
What should be coming down.... If you're a part of the "public media", then you are not allowed to BAN ANYBODY FOR ANY REASON. 1st Amendment and all, you know. Hey... If the 1st Amendment is lost, America is lost. Think about THAT!

Don't expect much. Republicans and their Conservatism, Inc, "think tanks" have been severely compromised by Silicon Valley money. Why do you think they keep shrugging their shoulders and babbling about "private companies?" Was that a legit reason to oppose the Civil Rights Act?
