Majority of Democrats Support Tech Censorship

It’s not just a few liberal nutjobs in Silicon Valley that support the tech censorship Americans have, unfortunately, grown accustomed to in recent years.
Rather, a majority of the Democratic Party supports censorship of content that offends “some” people, according to a recent Rasmussen poll . That poll says:
While a majority of Americans still think social media sites should permit free speech, most Democrats want companies like Twitter and Facebook to regulate content on their platforms.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 51% of American Adults believe it’s better for the owners of social media like Facebook and Twitter to allow free speech without interference. That’s down from 61% in January 2018 . Thirty-five percent (35%) now think it’s better for social media companies to regulate what is posted to make sure some people are not offended, up from 23% in 2018. (To see survey question wording, click here .)
The question asked was “ Which is better – for the owners of social media like Facebook and Twitter to regulate what is posted to make sure some people are not offended or to allow free speech without interference? ”
While the 35% that support social media censorship might sound like a small number, it’s important to realize that that result comes from the whole country.
When the results are limited to just Democrats, the result is might higher, showing that the left’s commitment to censorship and limiting free speech isn’t confined to the Silicon Valley elite; most Democrats want to limit free speech.
In fact, among Democrats, 57% of those polled by Rasmussen support social media censorship and think that content that some might find offensive should be somehow censored.
That makes sense, especially given DeSantis’ remark that tech is the censorship arm of the Democratic Party.
Further, the wealthier and government employees are also more likely than the average American to support social media censorship. As Just the News reports :
The wealthier a person is, the more likely he or she is to support censorship. Of people earning less than $30,000 annually, 27% support censorship, compared to 52% of people earning more than $200,000 a year, CNSNews stated.
Additionally, 44% of government employees state that they want to restrict speech online, making them more likely than respondents in other occupations to support censorship.
Why is tech so anti-free speech? Likely because it’s controlled and run by wealthy Democrats. Really that’s no surprise, but it’s still shocking to see that the majority of Democrats support CCP-like social media censorship.
From the terms of service of a popular social site.
"As a user of the Site, you agree not to:... disparage, tarnish, or otherwise harm, in our opinion, us and/or the Site."
You will be banned if you do.
The expression of conservative thoughts and opinions from all conservative sites on issues from social to science to religion to politics, economics, national defense, etc. does not qualify as to meet any of what you said above.
Yes, private platforms control their own content...
Is the gop reintroducing the fairness doctrine now?
Not and be protected by section 230. By editing and engaging in viewpoint discrimination and content control they are making editorial decisions and are now or should be subject to the same limitations as regular media. Or regulated as a public utility.
You cannot have it both ways...
What am I having both ways?
It doesn’t matter to me as I’ve never joined Twitter and Facebook is a five minute a week check on friends from various points in life and nothing else. I made the transition away from Google too. There are conservative counter parts to all the big tech social media sites and conservatives are moving to them now that they are established and standing outside the reach of the establishment.
(My cut off comment continued)
Bottom line is that we conservatives will not abide being 2nd class citizens subjected to secular progressive left censorship on those big platforms. We will leave rather than being subjected to that and yes those of us with the means to do so did build our own.
So... What's the problem then?
That liberals would rather see created dual segregated social media echo chambers on line rather than have the original sites treat us, our beliefs, and sources as equals. That’s the problem and the solution is two America’s in news and social media rather than accept 2nd class status on the originals.
No fairness doctrine. Getting rid of that was the best thing that ever happened to political discussion. Now that people are building their own as previously advised to if we didn’t like it, and enough big names are moving exclusively to places like Gab, Getter, Parler, Rumble, etc and Trumps entry next month, Truth Social, we will be just fine.
So... Separate but equal?
Better than together and not equal in this case.
