So, if they decided to openly ban Trump supporters, or perhaps Muslims, or black people, that would be OK also? Where do you draw the line?

In my opinion, all of these are just as discriminating as what they did so far.

Yes, that would be ok because it’s a private platform. They can ban who ever they want. If you find that problematic then don’t go there. I don’t.

Where do we draw the line? We don’t. They do, because it’s a private platform.
