It becomes a slippery slope however, where do you stop the censorship, especially when the silicon valley platforms are governed by people unelected and who may have particular today political biases.

Should be censor critical race theory? How about critical gender theory? How about antifa? Fair dinkum communists? Flat earthers? And so one.

If oxygen is the best disinfectant then it applies to all points of view, including qanon.

The internet functioned better before big tech algorithms which promote echo chambers. people could debate about the merits or otherwise of almost any subject, in an open Town Square type forum.

algorithms have destroyed that and now that the tech firms have a political agenda, we have entered the age of censorship and digital tyranny.

Bad JuJu man, and there is no way that this could not result in violence of some order
