Electric companies are private companies and have no obligation to provide for everybody. Should they get to deny people services?

....because a lot of right wing public figures broke very open and transparent rules of use for said social media platforms.

Your comparison does not work. It's like exclaiming that TiBB does not have the right to deny people the ability to post. |

No, in fact in the UK the media are the right wing of politics.
Look at any independent analysis of media bias and you'll see.

In the social media age we're in now, more and more people are looking for news that fits their own opinion, rather than neutral reporting or anything that challenges their views.
Most users on Twitter, for example, that post about politics - and if you look at the posts about a political topic it bears this out - are on the left or liberal side of politics. So left-wing political users have greater numbers on Twitter and are more likely to get their way in complaints (through having a louder voice) about other users' behaviour, than the other side. It's just better business for Twitter to favour the greater number of users. |

Right wing people keep getting banned from social media because they break the ****ing rules. You aren't arguing that they are being treated unfairly, you're arguing that they should get special treatment and be exempt from the rules. |

And that's why those things are regulated so that extremism is acted on similarly with adverising standards, false claims and misinformation are overseen by independent regulators.

Also, there was a recent report showing twitter actually gives leeway to far right users, because in order to blanket ban their bigotry, they'd also have to ban US conservative politicians for espousing the same views. It is now, and always has been a content rather than the loudest voice issue https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/a...oliticians-too https://www.businessinsider.com/twit...19-4?r=US&IR=T

In terms of freedom of speech we have probably never had more of it, and never more access for people to get their views out into the world. However that is causing some problems. |
