What's this?

The argument is it's the de facto public square.

  Break up Facebook? -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/09/2019 6:36PM
  I don't think Facebook should be broken up. We're doing this all wrong. -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 05/09/2019 7:52PM
  I'd go in almost the opposite direction -- Capital City Hoo 05/10/2019 08:56AM
  It’s a lot more nuanced and complex than that. The Marsh case has been -- WahooRQ 05/10/2019 08:41AM
  Facebook is not the only place where you can advertise publicly... -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/09/2019 8:38PM
  Rights do not get taken away just because there are other places to -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 05/09/2019 9:29PM
  So is it okay for a gay person to be turned away by a baker? -- Hokieesith 05/09/2019 9:03PM
  That's different. ** -- ResistHoo 05/09/2019 10:33PM
  Wait, so you believe Facebook and Twitter SHOULD be able to ban people? ** -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/09/2019 9:11PM
  No. But I assume you think it’s okay for a baker not to bake -- Hokieesith 05/09/2019 9:16PM
  I don't think the baker should have been compelled to bake the cake... -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/10/2019 6:13PM
  That’s correct. ** -- Hokieesith 05/10/2019 7:42PM
  Like the libs, you want it both ways -- CavMan1 05/10/2019 08:36AM
  This one (and others in tech) will be tough -- Capital City Hoo 05/09/2019 7:47PM
  They don’t need to be broken up, they need some regulation. -- Hokieesith 05/09/2019 7:34PM
  Why must they? It's a forum with standards of behavior, just like this -- 81_Hokie 05/09/2019 8:45PM
  But that isn’t exactly what happens. See the Joe Rogan podcast -- Hokieesith 05/09/2019 8:51PM
  Huh? That is exactly what happens... -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/09/2019 9:07PM
  The argument is it's the de facto public square. ** -- hoodeyo 05/09/2019 10:19PM
  Like I said. Watch that podcast. That’s not exactly what happens. -- Hokieesith 05/09/2019 9:12PM
  But it’s not like the baker/cake example. -- Hoojack 05/09/2019 9:50PM
  Could you summarize your point instead? ** -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/09/2019 9:14PM
  Sure. Liberals are given much more leeway on these sites than -- Hokieesith 05/09/2019 9:18PM
  Thanks. That's what I thought, but I only caught a brief snippet... -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/10/2019 6:20PM
  But the problem is that twitter has to judge whether a person -- Hokieesith 05/10/2019 7:45PM
  Subjective judgments are made all the time by companies to better... -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/14/2019 5:46PM
  Because liberals are less accepting of others opinions? -- Hokieesith 05/14/2019 5:49PM
  Twitter isn't censoring people for their ideas... -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/14/2019 5:56PM
  Hmm. I think that is questionable. ** -- Hokieesith 05/14/2019 6:12PM
  Completely disagree that they have an obligation to allow all speech... -- VisorBoy Hokie 05/09/2019 8:32PM
  Must? Why are they any different from the public Sabre boards? -- Old Dorms Rule! 05/09/2019 7:59PM
  Why should a baker have to serve gay people? -- Hokieesith 05/09/2019 8:12PM
  Access vs behavior -- Old Dorms Rule! 05/09/2019 10:07PM
  Sheer number of users is exactly it -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 05/09/2019 8:10PM
  I thought this post was spot on then and become even more relevant today. -- Hoos Operator 01/12/2021 12:33PM
  Not sure the Soapbox was ever intended for civil discourse -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 01/12/2021 12:57PM
  Hmmm -- Old Dorms Rule! 05/09/2019 8:44PM
  It's illegal already to behead someone -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 05/09/2019 9:28PM
  Hmm again -- Old Dorms Rule! 05/09/2019 9:49PM
  Are they a business? ** -- Hokieesith 05/09/2019 8:56PM
