The Twitter Files, Part Six

Requiring that Twitter not ban Person X is tantamount to requiring that they carry Person X’s content. Which is why people have no “right” to use something like Twitter - making that a right would infringe upon others’ rights.

At least that’s how it works under US law. I get the impression you’re not so familiar with American law though?

Yes they can ask and suggest removal. They cannot coerce but we have no reason to believe they did. I already linked to a long list of case law establishing this. Have a good rest of your weekend!

I guess it's too late for you to see this, but the latest Twitter Files show that Twitter did, in fact, feel pressured and coerced.

In fact, most of the comments in support of Twitter and the FBI throughout these threads are pretty decisively debunked in the continued reports.
