> Lol, watch him get banned due to some kind of "no second accounts allowed" rule...
From the article: “The tweets were deleted within minutes by Twitter which does not allow banned individuals to circumvent a full ban by tweeting under alternate accounts.”
I am in support of free speech but at the same time twitter is a company and they can choose who they want to provide service to. It's the same terminology with gay couple and religious baker that went to supreme court. Companies are similar to people in the eyes of the law. Personally, it's my opinion that it's for everyone's good his account is terminated. He is just deranged. Twitter just doesn't want to be associated with someone who incites violence and mob. Wise choice.
I don’t think you can be in support of free speech and at the same time mix in your personal feelings. If you support free speech, then you have to accept trump supporters, people who disagree with gay marriage, abortion and so on as long as they chose their words wise enough to not offend anyone.
And yes, personally I also feel it’s a good decision by Twitter, but it’s also concerning what kind of power our platforms have.
