While I personally disagree with any and all censorship, the real question here is who is allowed to decide the rules?

Even if we were all to agree that a specific ideology or narrative could be dangerous there is an issue with putting a central entity in a position of control.

As we have seen, rules are applied arbitrarily and even when there are defined rules, platforms continue to make any type of decision they want.

Is that REALLY a bigger problem than a murderous crowd trying to overthrow democracy, egged on by the president?
