Me: “Twitter is engaging in censorship based on political beliefs. This is exactly a fascist/dictatorial behavior...”
Friend: “yea, well they’re a private company and can do whatever they want”
So I’m trying to figure out the most effective response cause their eyes glaze over when I say “then that makes them a publisher and they should have their section 230 protections revoked” or “well why was it a problem when a baker wouldn’t bake a cake for a gay wedding?”
What is the most effective response that could help them realize the danger in what they are supporting. Obviously it’s so ignorant and hypocritical, but NPC’s are difficult to rationalize with.
Try to get him to grasp the magnitude of the situation. Our own president, the proclaimed Leader of the Free World, had his whole account taken down from Twitter and people are okay with that? Defending censorship of this level is extremely dangerous to our democracy.
