Social media censorship is a problem, here's why.

I only recently subscribed to TikTok, mostly to support a friend; but, it's quickly offered what I believe is a major problem for people who advocate for social media censorship.

Blaire White, a trans-woman, was banned from the platform for basically saying that it's okay that "super straight" men don't want to have sex with her.

The woke mob labeled A TRANS-WOMAN as transphobic. This isn't new. The woke mob went from demanding that everybody say that Caitlyn Jenner is "stunning and brave" to throwing her out like garbage because of her politicial views. What Blaire White said wasn't even conservative. She just said that people shouldn't feel obligated to have sex with her. That seems pretty damn liberal to me.

Yeah, it's true that you're not entitled to a platform. Yes, it's true that these are private companies and not bound by the First Amendment. But, seriously, pull your heads out of your asses and realize that the fact that there's nothing illegal about these platforms having terms and conditions doesn't make them right, ethical, or even reasonable.

Examine the absurdity of having terms and conditions that would ban a trans-person for saying that nobody should be compelled to have sex because a lot of people who aren't trans were offended by the idea that people shouldn't be compelled to have sex.

Are you gonna stand up for that just because it's a private company and technically has the right to do it?
