    Platform access as a civil right seems super hilarious from the folks who shit bricks about health care being a civil right because it is more or less stealing someone else's (a doctors) labor. This is no different. Conservatives just need to start their own social media outlets. Patrioteagletrumpbook is a good start.

      Bingo.  

      If you want to list access to social media as a right, well, then we're about to get a lot of laughs about the other side of things that really matter.

                    This would be a good first step:

                    "Most industries have some form of regulatory body that protects consumers and assists with complaints. These ombudsmen cover everything from telcos, to banking and even the NHS, with an independent team assisting in processing consumer queries. So why shouldn’t we have a similar process with tech businesses?

                    A watchdog would serve to scrutinise the powers of the big tech giants, adjust market power to allow competition to thrive, and demand greater transparency to build trust, resulting in a more positive online environment for all. We’ve seen that self-regulation hasn’t worked. A governing body that is able to implement suitable regulations that are sensible and fair would be the only solution to keep unfair practices in check."

                      yea - what I heard Nunes say was akin to getting punched and his arms are tied behind his back? 

                      no voice because of his being shadowbanned -  but twitter has NO problem with the onslaught of biased responses...

                        No, in this case it has nothing to do with censorship.  He's suing for slander and pointing out the multiple accounts trolling him.

                        Did...did you actually listen to what you posted?

                        edit:  Essentially he's crying because of parody accounts and critics online. 

                        double edit:

                        “As part of its agenda to squelch Nunes’ voice, cause him extreme pain and suffering, influence the 2018 Congressional election, and distract, intimidate and interfere with Nunes’ investigation into corruption and Russian involvement in the 2016 Presidential Election, Twitter did absolutely nothing,” the complaint said.... 

                        Now keep in mind Nunes account has not been suspended or muted in anyway so he is welcomed to respond to said tweets.    

                        One tweet is from DevinNunes'Cow   (no need for explanation here)

                        ""Devin's boots are full of manure. He's udder-ly worthless and its pasture time to move him to prison," reads one tweet from Devin Nunes' Cow."

                        So if you're allowed to sue over that, then I'll be real when I say the President is going to be in a world of financial hurt really fucking quickly with his twitter antics.

                                  Only there is little to no evidence to back up this claim. It's a conspiracy theory in truth.  Even Nunes' and his followers on Twitter admit his content is fully accessible at his home page 24/7 and his tweets are visible to any and all of his followers.     

                                  So to make clear - No Censorship and this is about slander. 

                                  Public figures are subject to criticism and ridicule protected by law in this case. - So...  that lawsuit is DoA.

                                  Now you move to - "Shadow banning"...   or more accurately, a conspiracy theory term Nunes' heard and is propagating. Even though his followers admit there has been zero restriction to content posted to his twitter provided you follow him.     

                                  Sounds like he's mad that he isn't at the top of a recommend search result, in which case, neither am I.   Guess I should sue Google for that?

                                  Are we about done here?

                                    Nunes is also suing newspapers over slander.

                                          Nunes did not say his tweets were visible to any and all of his followers, he said the opposite. 

                                          "look, they don't want to call it shadow banning, that's fine. They can call it whatever they want to call it. But the fact of the matter is people could not see my tweets."

                                          Shadow banning is not just some conspiracy theory:
