It's yet another example of why the Civil Rights Act is so in opposition to Natural Law.

The CDA is also a violation of property rights and Natural Law, as it gives the State the power to dictate content (censorship). It is one step closer to the State regulating books, movies, and video games.
Well, the FCC has censored and monitored network tv, for curse words, nudity, etc. I think its pretty strange that in 2018, we still have a govt agency doing this kind of thing! and not to mention, no one seems to be calling for them to end this practice either. I cannot believe many folks out there, support govt censorship like this.

Gimme a break. Trump can’t do squat. He needs to stick to arguing with CNN. Social media will rip him a new ass if he tries to go after them.
Who is "Social Media" by the way? Does he work for CNN?

For as much as conservatives love the second amendment they sure hate the first.

That is not true. Social media Co.'s don't like the first and they are going to have a big decision to make.
Be neutral and unbiased, or get sued for content.
They are ready picked their battle. I don't think wisely.

Senator Ted Cruz grilled three social media leaders/liars about their censorship of conservative voices, which they deny doing. Spokespersons from Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube claim there is no censorship but recent videos released by undercover reporter James O’Keefe prove otherwise.
This is as Mark Zuckerberg announced he will up the censorship, making it much harder to find companies on Facebook.
There is no question that all three censor conservative content, but they lied. They ban the malicious content, said the Twitter executive, which the left thinks covers all conservatives.
The Twitter executive said the company down-ranks a user for “engaging in targeted abuse against minorities,” which covers people who don’t want open borders, unlimited refugee immigration, the importing of terrorists.

Standard Oil vs social media.

One involved costs to everyone on a daily basis for essentials.

Another involved something that costs people nothing for something none of you really need.

They screwed the pooch this time.
Admitting they censor, based upon their internal rules instead, of the federal guidelines.
