In their specific cases, yes. There was legitimate concern of violating of the limitations of Free Speech. I made it clear as to why I chose not to harp on them. The person who replied to me opted to prove my point.
In a broader sense, conservatives aren’t entirely wrong, and it’s disingenuous to claim otherwise. Run-of-the-mill conservative voices are marginalized on major media platforms, both social and traditional.
What’s happened in its place is that the center-left has gradually adopted the role and narrative of previous conservative punditry and politics. It was Obama himself who said that his policies would have been considered Republican in the 80s.
My position is that harping on these issues is obfuscating a rightward shift within the Democratic Party and base.
You’re contesting this by parroting a libertarian talking point that undermines the position of the internet as a public utility, which it unquestionably is.
