Big Tech is Indian. It's Chinese. It's international. But one thing it isn't is American. It's unrealistic for people to expect that these solidly multi-national firms would uphold values such of freedom of speech, that the majority of the globe don't hold dear. China never had an Enlightment, nor did India. Neither of these countries value freedom of speech or expression, so it's strage to think that "our" big multinational tech firms, with their hordes of foreign and non-integrated first generation immigrant employees, would share these values.
Censorship on Twitter was driven by first generation children of immigrants, who clearly never had to learn about American values, obviously don't respect them, and in fact make it clear by their actions that they resent these values. We need to better integrate our citizen-immigrants, and their children, and inculcate the enlightment values which are the foundation of America in them. Perhaps forcibly. Because if we don't, they will destroy our society.

It might also be news to you that American corporations are mostly staffed and lead by white Americans! [1] Let me just grab that citation for you, since I know you're not too keen on searching for these kinds of facts for yourself: "In the tech sector nationwide, whites are represented at a higher rate in the Executives category (83.3 percent), which typically encompasses the highest level jobs in the organization. This is roughly over 15 percentage points higher than their representation in the Professionals category (68 percent), which includes jobs such as computer programming. However, other groups are represented at significantly lower rates in the Executives category than in the Professionals category; African Americans (2 percent to 5.3 percent), Hispanics (3.1 percent to 5.3 percent), and Asian Americans (10.6 percent to 19.5 percent)."

My SO complains I listen to too much Fox News. But you gotta be a little bit smarter than that. Do your own research. Sip a little lemonade. And chill out.
- hanafudafan 4y agoThe UN has a special web site where they advocate for the Great Replacement. The technical term is Replacement Migration and it's not a "theory" it's actual UN policy [1]. You see whites, especially those who come from countries which benifited from the Enlightenment, are restive, not used to the yoke of slavery. So they need to be replaced. And they need to be monitored and silenced until this replacement is at such a level that they can be dealt with more directly, as the hated and feared minority they are destined to be. It's only natural that the people monitoring and censoring these troublesome racist conspiracy theorists should come from non-Enlightenment global backgrounds.

If someone could love your enemies, then they could surely love you too. P.S.
