Nathan 2,079 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Just deactivated my account. I hope people actually take action and leave the platform. Removing the app isn’t enough, they need to see accounts close. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I've viewed twitter as the most lenient of the big social medias. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Trump just said in a Fox News interview that he won’t return to Twitter even if Elon lifts his ban and will use his own app instead. But considering Truth Social has completely dropped off almost entirely and has been out for months now, I see it doubtful but I agree there should be a serious concern about what Elon is going to do about Trump and other high profile officials who got banned.

I mean I'm not a Trump supporter but I don't think him having access to a Twitter account will cause anymore harm than the other platforms he already has and has had access to.

"Free speech" does not entail freedom of consequence and things like misinformation and hate speech should not be protected because of something like "free speech." Like, if we're talking about real social or political issues, someone spreading blatant misinformation or using their platform to promote discrimination against minority groups isn't ok and the fact that those people use "free speech" as a way to defend their actions is so sickening and frustrating because that's not what it means!! Also, free speech is a two-way street. Like I said, 99.9% of the time, people only invoke that argument because they're butthurt that people disagree with their opinions. Well, people are equally allowed to disagree with your opinions just as you are allowed to make those opinions, so what gives? People can't use "free speech" when it only benefits them.
