Just like this, or any other site, the 1st A has absolutely NOTHING to do with private speech or businesses (other than the yelling fire in a theater/similar utterances). 3. The antisemitic and racist/bigoted comments are continuing at a record rate and are not being shut down or deleted, primarily because those people who previously would see them and stop it - were long ago fired.
So saying that Twitter was "suppressing free speech" is actually quite silly. Particularly given all of the other private sites, businesses and people, that never met a wacko conspiracy or outrageous lie that they didn't love...and publish or pass on. lol

If you believe in your heart what you just posted, I’m done. “Silly” is the premise that the old Twitter is not guilty of collusion to defame and suppress important information. You know, that little ole thing called freedom of speech. I feel like I’m having a battle of the real truth with an unarmed poster.
