Private entities are not the government.

If the government owned a version of Twitter, sure. Until then, good luck lol.

For the same reason I can tell you to get the fuck off my property. Doesn't mean you can murder, but it's mine. You don't get to plant flaming crosses on it unless it's upside down with a statue of Baphoment. Because then you'd have my permission.

There's a difference between a small web forum with 3 users though, and something like Twitter, which is a gatekeeper and thus must be held to higher standards.

Legally? No, there isn't.

ISPs aren't even nationalized. Let alone private websites.

Also there should literally be no such term as higher standards. Standards should be equal.

Facebook should have the same freedoms to exercise discrimination than the redneck screaming in his backyard? Fuck that noise.
