Methinks if you’ve defended businesses “rights to religious liberty”, but are outraged by companies removing Parler from app stores and hosting, you are a hypocrite
Honestly I’m torn- how do we protect free speech in an age where tech companies control so much discourse, without handing power to the government to control right and wrongthink?
My issue though is with the folks I’ve see posting previously on how bakers and clerks and all sorts of others should be able to turn away gays or not bake a cake they don’t like, but act like google removing something it doesn’t like is horrible.
Be consistent. If you don’t respect your own beliefs, no one will.
EDIT: to be clear, I’ve seen the opposite too. Folks who believe businesses should be compelled to serve every customer now cheering on the Parler ban. Equally gross.
