CMV: Conservatives aren't being unfairly censored.

Conservatives aren't being censored. Racists, misogynists, homophobes, transphobes, conspiracy nut jobs, and (recently) insurrectionists are the ones being censored. There is nothing in the terms of service of Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, or any other platform that explicitly discriminates against conservatives. If conservatives weren't any of those things I listed, they wouldn't be be banned. You can be a fiscal conservative, you can believe in the border wall and stricter immigration, you can be a Christian and hold traditional values and you won't be banned from these platforms on that basis. Even known white nationalists like Nick Fuentes are verified and remained unbanned from Twitter because they do their best to dogwhistle and stay within the limits of the TOS.

In addition, liberals and progressives aren't immune to censorship. If they break the TOS, they will be banned. And it has happened; notable left wing streamers and content creators have been banned from Twitter. The YouTube algorithm once unfairly demonetized LGBTQ content creators because it falsely flagged them as sexualized content.

My point is that political affiliation isn't something that any social media company takes into consideration for their terms of service. If anything, conservative companies like Parler are the ones using political affiliation to ban users. Any disproportionate censorship that conservatives face on Twitter, YouTube, etc. is their own fault.

I'd also add that these companies are almost purely driven by profit motive. They don't care civil rights, they don't care about LGBTQ, they don't care about cyberbullying, they don't care about disinformation. All they care about is their bottom-line, and conservatives pose a huge risk to it by jeopardizing their ad revenue. Facebook only started to crackdown on QAnon and antivaxx communities on its platform when they started posing a risk to their public image and ultimately their bottom line.

First of all: Why should this be censored?   


Secondly, conservatives get called these things all the time. Since you seem to imply that the average conservative is not these things then this should make you realize that conservatives can get banned even tho they are not these things just cause Twitter thinks they are these things.

Censorship can happen for profit reasons. It's still censorship.
