Isn't it funny how leftists are suddenly pro-business when it comes to censorship?
They are usually all for the working class but when it comes to censorship they say "they are a private company they can do what they want" of course this isn't really true it's more that they can do whatever they want because they are too powerful and hard to regulate not because what they are doing is fully legal as it is not. Yahoo answers shutting down is the latest in tech company censorship and their never ending pursuit to put a strangle hold on public discourse online of course no one really cares anymore because all this immoral and likely illegal censorship has become old news. I saw a study not long ago that was at the time the latest thing the media was getting offended at that showed that most Republicans think Democrats are bad people who want to destroy this country. I'm not going to sit here and say that all Democrats and leftists are themselves evil people but I will say that the fact that they consistently support evil and evil policies such as internet censorship makes it not very surprising to me that Republicans think they are all bad people.

Wait, leftists are not suddenly pro anything. As far as censorship and saying "they are a private co...' is stating what most folks who went to their American govt class in high school understand. The 1st amendment means the GOVERNMENT will not infringe on a citizens right to free speech. The GOVERNMENT can't censor you. A business owner even Big Co. ownrs are private citizens. If the government regulates how a business owner runs their business
that would mean we we're more of a FASCIST DICTATORSHIP than the free country we are.
You also have to consider those Big Co owners, most of them or their share holders ARE the 1%
who are also our elected government. They would only be censoring themselves. That's not conducive with profit margins.

I thought Republicans hated regulations on corporations. Republicans flip flop to much for me to keep up with what Republicans believe.

Unlike you, the people you call "leftists" know that the first amendment actually means.

I am going to miss idiots thinking they know something and can actually reason. This is a prime example of that.
