Until you are delisted from google, banned by youtube, blocked by facebook and twitter and now your online potential was reduced in 90%. Imagine being blocked from every walmart,costco, 7-eleven and being told that it is freedom because you still have the choice to go elsewhere

I'm imagining someone who messes up badly enough to get banned from all those places and still somehow blames the stores rather than their own actions.

Yes, perfect analogy, everybody knows all people who has been blocked from twitter "had it coming" to them.

That’s exactly what antisemites say of Jewish expulsions.
