That’s not even remotely true.

Here, we see the merger of state and corporate power.
The problem isn't free speech.
The FBI emailing Twitter to report possible violations of Twitter's terms of service is not censorship and it is not illegal.

The FBI reported to Trump during the 2020 election cycle. It was headed by his own handpicked director, under the supervision of his own handpicked Attorney General.
It's clearly the FBI asking "will anyone rid me of this troublesome priest".
Jail for everyone involved, these people need to be made an example of
What if the FBI only happened to report violations by Asians. Or only violations by women?
I guess it would not be censorship, and I guess it would not be not illegal either, but it would make people wonder if there is an agenda.
It’s as much about the violations reported as the violations left unreported.
It's worse than illegal, it's state funded goons acting to suppress US Citizens of their constitutionally protected rights.
How about you take a look at the rules and consider which of them are wrong, and what got you into this situation in the first place.
Your compliance is appreciated.
Regardless, while you may call this “underwhelming” it’s actually hard proof of illegal activity. The FBI cannot censor people, period. That’s fascism and illegal in the US, per multiple Supreme Court rulings.
This effectively gives trump, et al a direct path to a lawsuit against the federal government and AGs of states cause to sue the federal government. It could very well (and imo will) lead to a church committee of sorts.
That said, not sure if the powers are established enough to just resist all of it (they might be).
