proud republican Loc: RED CALIFORNIA

Why is that? This is the first amendment. Tell me how big tech has violated it.

First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Are businesses or corporations mentioned anywhere in the first amendment? Did Congress pass any laws abridging the freedom of speech or prohibit the free exercise thereof for anyone?

I'm sorry for you that your hero had his legs cut out from under him and he no longer has his usual avenues to communicate with you. That's his fault though. He's the one who abused the rules. FB, Twitter, and other businesses are private entities. If they don't like what you have to say they don't have to give you a microphone and they aren't breaking a single one of your constitutional rights.

Now, this can be alleviated. The government can take over businesses and tell them what they are supposed to do. This is what happens in Socialist and C*******t countries. If this is what you want us to do I am sure that Nancy can be talked into doing that for you. Would you like me to give her a call???

Not quite as simple as you make it. Of course, I understand that you have difficulty with complex problems/issues.

Educate yourself.

These companies are not public utilities, they are publicly traded businesses. Repubs cry foul whenever government sticks it's fingers in corporate pies, claiming that Capitalism forbids it...............................unless that corporation doesn't behave the way they want it to.

Not quite true. Perhaps you are amenable to that position because it supports your belief.
