So it turns out Twitter has been shadowbanning conservatives. Not actually banning by the way, but making it slightly harder to see the tweets.
Honestly, I think this is a fair trade-off. This is the same year that conservatives defended the right of a business owner to not serve gay people.
"But Ephrom, don't you think business owners should be forced to serve gay people products?" I hear you ask. To which the answer is yes, but there is a notable difference.
I think we have all figured out, at this point, that gay people don't choose to be gay. Yet, conservatives choose what political views they have. The fact is, Twitter is simply applying their TOS, I have no issue with that. It is no different than a conservative website not allowing me to post comments that support single payer.
So which way is it conservatives? Can a business be forced to serve people they don't like, or should they be required to accept all customers? Maybe it's just these people are homophobic, but who knows.
