Sorry if this is more fit for a debate sub, so this is the first place I could think of to post this.

So Twitter banned Mike Lindell. My thoughts towards Twitter banning right-wingers is that it’s not equal to left-wingers and anti-capitalists being censored and assassinated. And that because they constantly advocate for “If a baker won’t make you a cake go to a different baker or start your own bakery” and that their just the woman sobbing “I NEVER THOUGHT THE LEOPARDS WOULD EAT MY FACE” after voting for the Leopards Eating Faces Party.

Twitter shouldn’t exist, and socialism suppresses those who advocate for the bourgeoisie anyway. So I don’t give a single shit if right-wingers are getting banned.

What’s your thoughts?

    The issue that some leftists have with the bans is not who is being banned, but rather that by socially accepting the bans we’re giving the companies like twitter the go-ahead to police speech on their site. This means that if they can ban right wingers for saying things they deem to be wrong, they can equally ban us for the same thing. We shouldn’t condemn the bans or ask for them to be lifted, but we should recognize that is puts us into a weaker position on capitalist websites and fear for what it portends.
