People have free speech but it's not free from consequences. Plus there is a million miles difference between free speech and hate speech, between free speech and publishing defamatory, false, manipulated and deliberately provocative statements on a public platform. Free speech doesn't extend to targeted attacks against certain individuals or groups of people which could be deemed discrimination, harassment or bullying. Free speech doesn't extend to groups of thugs gathering together to harass, cause property damage, create violence and intimidation. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I really don't know but what I do know is that outlets such as the Guardian didn't have daily rants about it back then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issue with Twitter isn’t the right wing bias, or even the preponderance off nobheads on there. They’ve every right to express their Neanderthal opinions as far as I’m concerned. I am bothered that the app pumps right wing propaganda at me almost non-stop. From the usual suspects, even if I block people and say I’m not interested in stuff. It’s fine for people to express vile opinions, but I should equally be able to avoid reading them. So, I’ve deleted it. And I won’t be buying a Tesla either.

I was watching a video on Facebook, they are all over, about the benefits of a fully carnivore diet. It's very convincing if you don't question it. Are those that fall for it the thick and the old?
