    But IT DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER. Even if it was censorship, they have the right to control the content of their own web site. Twitter is not owned by the government. Not yet, anyway.

    One of the most mind boggling things about this situation has been the people saying infection is good ~because~ it contributes to herd immunity. You try to explain one of the most basic tenets of epidemiology to people and it turns into “yes we should all be infected.”

    I realize the answer is "Its the GOP, what they do doesn't make sense" but I'm still incredibly confused with how Trump is complaining about getting fact checked, but apparently the executive order is designed to take away protections from social media companies

    wouldn't that make Twitter liable for publishing Trump's lies, and thus they would have no choice but to simply remove them?

    So can the social media companies tie up that executive order in the courts? I don’t know how that works
