Domino Valdano What censor doesn't think their censorship was justified? That you support the censorship doesn't mean it wasn't censorship! > telling millions of people not to get vaccinated The Trump administration's Operation Warp Speed is credited with lowering regulatory barriers such that several vaccines were brought to market much faster than would've happened otherwise: https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/operation-warp-speed-trump-pfizer-moderna-vaccine-1.5806820 Trump brags about how many people were saved by the accelerated vaccine development: https://nypost.com/2021/08/08/donald-trump-says-operation-warp-speed-saved-lives/ He's repeatedly encouraged people to get vaccinated: https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/mar/04/rachel-maddow/what-trump-said-encourage-covid-19-vaccine-use/ Maybe you'd be better informed about Trump if, you know, he hadn't been censored? But let's assume that Trump did advocate avoiding vaccination. So what? How are we supposed to know what's true if we can't even discuss whether something is true or false? Or if truth and falsehood have been pre-decided for us by our masters? > I certainly think it's reasonable for private companies to help during a pandemic with curbing antivax misinformation. Right, you're pro-censorship, when it's not _your_ ox being gored. When it's something _you_ care about, such as trans issues, you flip out at even mild "content moderation". (And "cisgender" and "cis" aren't banned, you just can't apply them to someone who thinks the terms are a slur.) For example: https://twitter.com/archerships/status/1677798375037743105
