It's like these fools only read the second amendment and have zero understanding of the actual Constitution and the terms found within it. It's only "censorship" if the government is the entity restricting the speech.

OMG... the 1st amendment means you can't face government retaliation for free speech.

Conservatives: private businesses should have the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason.

Twitter swings the ban hammer on Trump for inciting violence and fomenting insurrection

Conservatives: No not like that.

Edit because I'm tired of replying to this shit take: publicly traded ≠ publicly owned. Publicly traded means that anyone can buy shares in the company; while some shares can, not all shares grant ownership rights.

Publicly owned companies are companies owned by the public via their government, like the USPS.
