Protected class is subjective and is anything people decide it can be.  It’s clear that you support discrimination based on political beliefs.  Shame on you.

How is it subjective when it is listed in legislation??   That’s just fuckin’ dumb.

Yes, I support a business being allowed to discriminate on anything legally allowed. 

If they don’t like the fact you spout white supremacist beliefs, they should be allowed to discriminate. 

If they discriminate because you are a woman, then they’re not allowed.

Is this really that difficult of a concept to understand?

Yeah, what's wrong with that?

Anyway, Twitter and facebook don't discriminate against conservatives, it's just that conservatives are more likely to violate the terms of service. Twitter and Facebook actually love conservatives because right wingers are an endless well of engagement and rage clicks.

It’s the terms of service that is the problem, and those who enforce it.  For example, conservatives were banned for discussing the fact that covid may have come from a lab.  They’ve also been banned for insisting that there are biological differences between men and women.  Even former Twitter boss Jack Dorsey is criticizing Twitters anti-speech platform and the board.

Yes, fake news and misinformation are a violation of the ToS. If you can't play by the rules, go to Gab or Parler.

But again, Twitter and Facebook have both admitted their algorithms amplify right-wing content, but that doesn't fit your victim narrartive.

The lab leak isn’t fake news.  Nor are the biological differences between men and women.  You’ve made my point.

People were also banned for sharing the real Hunter Biden story.

1. The lab leak is fake news
2. Prove that anyone has been banned for stating there are biological differences between men and women. The fact that there are tons of TERFs on the platform says otherwise.

Prove it.

No, the lab leak is not fake news. 
Right now the Babylon Bee, a satirical site, is banned for exactly that.  Luckily your nazi type censorship days are coming to an end.

False.

1. A private company enforcing its terms of service is not analogous to repressive state censorship.
2. You've made it clear you actually support repressive state censorship (including banning books, restricting speech in classrooms) so STFU

Also 'lab leak' doesn't differentiate between:

-accidental lab leak, which is unknowable but guessable via looking at the virus
-on purpose, which is mostly crazy people talking crazy talk

Agreed.  I've always been on the side of accidental.  I don't think anyone can argue that it was on purpose.  It just doesn't make sense, especially with what's going on in China now.

no - it was given a 12 hour suspension... and could return whenever it chooses if it simply deletes an offending tweet; one that awarded a 'Man of the Year' award to a transgender official in the Biden admin. It seems your treasured "Conservative parody sight" thought it prudent to offer the award in response to a media outlet announcing the {transgender} official as one of its 'Women of the Year'.

The offending tweet?  They're satire?  Regardless, the "woman" in question is a biological man.  That's a fact.
