But there's an important issue we're over looking. Should a social media platform/company be required to carry content that promotes illegal activities? Should Twitter be required to allow pedophiles to promote their cause? And social media is not a public institution. Twitter, Facebook, etc. are private companies owned by individuals. They're free to do what they want with their company and your free to go start your own site or company. It's property rights. You're free to put a sign promoting your ideals in your yard but I'm not required to allow you to put it in my yard.
