Youโ€™re using a no true scottsman fallacy by the way

Today I learned.

I suppose what I meant is the pundits frequently hold up having their Facebook posts removed as state censorship, that this is somehow in violation of their constitutionally protected right to expression - and its not. It IS censorship by a private body in a forum completely of that private entity's control, yet they wave the word censorship around to convince others that somehow its a shadowy conspiracy by the deep state or whatever to clamp down on freedom of expression.

Given the amount of involvement corporations have in US government, I'd say that's not a bad theory.

Remember, lobbying is simply legalized bribery that everybody just accepts like morons.
