    When a dangerous topic comes up, yank the plug for a few days and hope it defuses itself.

    That's what happened when the news of the Google anti-right-wing censorship rampage broke.

    No, WE have to clean house. This corporate plutocracy is aiming to destroy our society completely, and they are not going to leave peacefully.

    "Toxic" is awfully poetic and hyperbolic.
    The leftists keep reaching for new ways to describe how awful it is when their feelings are hurt, and they are tearing the language to shreds as they do it.

    Perhaps it would be best of Twitter really was toxic.

    Are you seriously expecting them to all be experts who never make mistakes?

    Oh, so the problem is with MY expectations, of course THEY HAD TO DO SOMETHING, they couldn't have just let free discourse take shape, that's crazy.

    pretty much all conspiracy theorist / fake news people

    Oh good, just as long as it's PRETTY MUCH just everyone Google doesn't like for only the reason they CLAIMED, I guess I should place more trust in them and give them a longer leash before I object!

    Basically you are falling into the side that wants to decide this issue with semantics instead of philosophy.

    So what is your point? "Rules are rules?"

    Your total ignorance of the philosophy aside:
    You're missing the argument that Google is usurping the authority of congress and that Google is invested in and its operations are fundamentally guided by federal agencies, which are SUPPOSED to be the servants of congress.

    These bans were probably done by a machine-learning computer program.

    The real dangers of automation are not in job losses, but loss of the ability to live our lives in the face of monolithic corporations usurping proper governmental authority.

    On one hand, you have traditional human beings, with intelligence, wisdom, spirituality, etc.

    You have to pick a side.

    it's not censorship if the government didn't do it

    This is so incredibly stupid I wonder if you're trolling. It's still censorship. The actions are the same. The actor does not define the action. Maybe in you insane leftist sub-"reality" where double standards are the fundamental.

    Google is essentially creating a state within a state and usurping the authority of congress. Aside from the fact they are owned and operated in great part by federal agencies, but hey, that's a "conspiracy theory"[1].

    They operate a public space. The constitution applies, or would, if the United States of America was still a country. But it's constitution has been repealed by the authorities who are supposed to enforce it - the general public especially.

    But the fact remains, it's on paper, it's still in the same place as it was to begin with, and violating its provisions still makes the actor self-contradictory and malicious, due the same justice.

    Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence.

    You have that completely backwards in the context of government and big business.

    Ignore context and history

    Everything is okay, mistakes happen, don't try to find out why, just stop complaining

    Who cares, they were nut jobs, we did nature a favor by euthanizing their discourse, trust me, I'm GOD, I'm right, but don't ask me to describe my philosophy or reasoning, you are a but a simple mortal

    It's their private property they can do what they want, it's irrelevant that the platform is a public place

    Rules are rules
