The Weiner laptop: Hunter Biden addition

sure. markets arent exclusive to capitalism.

distinction is whether the business is owned privately or otherwise (worker owned, or publicly/state owned)

Markets are not exclusive to capitalism but they are required in capitalism.

The same group of people who ed that a business is forced to not discriminate against customers based on their sexual orientation when making a wedding cake will cry out for the government to intervene in another private business when they selectively decide to censor ideas they disagree with.

Im a socialist. I still respect their decisions as long as they are unbiased and consistent. They are not.

Pretty simple. No need to drag socialism into the equation

Socialism doesnt mean government is involved in every business decision of private companies

You would not know socialism if it bit you in the ass. Saying you are a socialist doesn't make you one.

Socialism means collective ownership of means of production. If Twitter and Facebook were collectively owned then capitaliist motives would not shape the direction they went. It would be based on social movement wave.

New York Post has a website and a newspaper. It’s not twitters legal duty to host all their content.

They're a medium, not a publisher. They're begging for the law to be changed if they're not already violating it.
Some say this is what big tech wants. Regulation so that any incoming compe ion will be strangled in it.

If the president orders a murder of a foreign official, and that murder is against the law, then the president classifies everything about that murder, and someone decides to leak that information, should that leaker be prosecuted for revealing classified information?

no law is being violated. twitter can host whatever content it wants.

Im a socialist.

Why?

[Spurtacular]

Not a public utility, sorry.

Twitter currently acts as a de facto public communication utility. Not sorry.

[Spurtacular]

You're projecting.

Not groundbreaking. Come to terms.

Thank you for the link; but you made up sh** basically. This is a privacy breach between two parties. This is not a case about a party who has taken ownership of another party's former data, which is what is being discussed.

Exactly. As a private business they could just say they are pro Joe Biden if they wanted to. It's completely up to them. It probly won't make them a lot of money and that's why I said the market should decide. I don't think they want to come across as being biased because that makes them not really a conduit for other people's information but more of a regulator to push out their own opinions. I just don't think they should have any federal protections or immunity if they're not going to abide by the same basic standards that media outlets should abide by.

Doubtful. But they're severely violating the public's trust in any event.

Why?

He's not a socialist. Why would he move to a capitalist country if he's is a socialist? Why would he support Donald Trump?

[Spurtacular]

Well that depends, which party does he support?

If it's the Deep State Party, he'll be fine.

im not certain if you're referring to any specific protections they currently enjoy

if you're referring to the oft-discussed Section 230 protections, that just means they cant be sued for the contents of another user's post... ie i use my twitter account to defame somebody. i can still be sued, but twitter cant. but even with that protection, twitter can be sued when they editorialize. so if they flag an article as fake news or w/e... that publisher can go after them for defamation if the article is actually accurate, etc

grammar errors.

Disagree. He believed in somewhat freedom.
