His right to free speech? Sure I am.
- packetized 8y agoFreedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequence.
- jjeaff 8y agoI'm quite certain he's still speaking, and no one is stopping him. You just can't go to Twitter to hear it.
- zorpner 8y agoThe right to free speech is not the right to a platform.

- kevin_thibedeau 8y agoHe still has that. Just without someone else's soapbox to stand on. Being obnoxious is a right, but it can invite consequences.
- hluska 8y agoYou have the right to say (almost) anything you want. I have the right to tell you that you can't use my microphone. Someone else has the right to build a microphone tailored for you.
- hiram112 8y agoSo I suppose you are all for Comcast, AT&T, etc. injecting ads into your traffic, charging premium for your Netflix binges, and worse? I mean it's their ~~microphone~~ fiber. Oh, but this is different, I'm sure you'll say, because reasons. Well that's why we generally, in the US at least, have always thought it was a good idea to just allow all speech, even if some awful stuff leaks out once in a while.
