iirc the left was crying about free speech like a year or two ago and the trump supporters were going on about how free speech only protects the goverment from silencing you, but private organizations do have that right.
What were we all upset about back then? I want to know because now the right is suddenly saying "twitter is going against the spirit of the first amendment" so now suddenly your free speech being silenced by individuals is protected by the same arguments the left was making back then, according to these flip flopping know it all's.
So what was it? Anyone remember what was the thing the left was upset about being silenced over back then? Someone's gotta. It cant have been more than a year or two ago.
I cant for the life of me remember, but I remember being dumfounded when I heard libertarians very calmly explaining to me why they did not support me and it was that the first amendment only protecgts the goverment from silencing me, it does not "grant me the right to free speech"
Like I was like "I have a right to free speech and _____ is clearly preventing it!" and they were like, "_______ isnt the goverment, so they can silence you if they want you have no right to free speech."
Man I wish you trump supporters wouldn't come up with a new totally insane thing to try to gasslight me about every 2 months its like a perpetual carnival in this country these days. I cant remember what year it is half the time based on all the scandals this last 4 years it should have been 400.
