A federal appellate court just blew up the absurd argument that the world's largest carriers of speech and journalism can censor views they don't like. Next stop, the Supreme Court

Winning.

There is nothing ambigous about the ruling, which says that censorship is NOT speech., and (therefore) the "free speech" rights of Twitter et al are not violated when they are denied censorship rights.

Yeah. I love it.

Twitter is free to tell everyone that the sky is RED.

Twitter is NOT free to censor you from saying the sky is BLUE.

Musk posts Twitter poll asking whether Trump should be allowed back on platform

asking-whether-trump-should-be-allowed-back-on-platform/

Twitter CEO Elon Musk posted a poll on the platform on Friday to ask users if they believe former President Trump’s account should be restored. Twitter permanently suspended Trump’s account in the aftermath of the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection following tweets he made that the company determined to be in violation of its policy against glorifying or inciting violence. But Musk, who completed his acquisition of the company last month, has indicated a hesitancy to continue Trump’s suspension and a general opposition to lifetime bans. Musk commented on the poll, “Vox Populi, Vox Dei,” a Latin phrase meaning “the voice of the people is the voice of God.”
