Either social media companies should have to abide by the first amendment OR they should have section 230 protections removed from them
When you become a Republican do you have to get your brain wiped to erase any basic understanding of American civics, or are you guys just born f---ing braindead? How many times do people have to tell you that the first amendment doesn't apply to private corporations regulating usage of their own software? A hundred? Ten thousand? A million? I have to self-censor in this very post -- can't say "f--king" like I want to -- do you honestly believe that this is Dave and Virginia violating my first amendment rights?
do you know what the word Or means
They are already "abiding by the first amendment" because the first amendment says absolutely nothing about how private companies self-regulate usage of their platforms.
I was obviously meaning by the principles of it . Anyway if these companies want liability protections then yes they should not be able to censor the way they have been.
