OK since both of you want to nationalize social media, and so does Zuckerberg. What is stopping it?
I'm not sure what you mean by "nationalizing social media"?

Private businesses used to be able to deny black people from patronizing them, but then the civil rights act of 1964 made that illegal.

Was that nationalizing those businesses.. or... ?

Also, nobody is saying that twitter shouldn't be able to ban conservatives. The argument is that they need to apply their standards equally, and in good faith, to be protected by sec.230, which they blatantly don't. They do this via incredibly vague, nebulous and maleable verbiage like "hatespeech". Hatespeech is not allowed! Okay, well, I consider it to be "hatespeech" when people make jokes about conservatives being white supremacists, because that's complete slander. Will twitter ban those people for "hatespeech"? I have a feeling.... not so much.
