Oh my god, those tweets at the awful ghostbuster are hilarious.
Also, fuck Twitter's bias. Sick of seeing this shit from them and reddit - shutting down freedom of speech when it goes against their narrative. But seriously, how the fuck do you ban someone for something that his followers did? Absolutely sick of this shit.

I think freedom of speech covers saying things people might find offensive
Maybe saying "I'm going to kill you tonight" is not ok, but saying "feminism is cancer" is alright

I don't particularly find it offensive either... it's stupid, but not offensive... but that's not the point.
The point is that on Twitter, just as is the case on the BrownsBoard, there are limits to the "behavior" that is tolerated. And those limits are determined by the powers that be.

Yea but still saying something that offends somebody and getting banned for it can still be criticized as bullshit
They don't tend to ban people for praising a terrorist attack on their platform, but they do when a blue haired fat girl gets triggered.

I didn't get angry until I saw the last post from the CEO.

There is nothing that Milo said that deserved the banhammer. Some of the things his followers said to her? Absolutely they deserved it. This sets a horrible precedent.

Twitter is indeed allowed to set its own code of conduct on its site, but the crux of the argument is that Twitter's standards and TOS is unequally enforced. Now, i'm about as conservative as Cal is liberal or DieHard is insightful, but even I have noticed that Twitter seems to swing the ban-hammer down more quickly on conservative viewpoints - like the one's that Milo represents - than they do on statements and ideas from more left-leaning ideologies. The fact that Leslie Jones can be free to insult white people in her tweets without rebuke while at the same time crying racism when people troll her about her shitty movie seems to be disingenuous.

TBH, those people sound like fucking losers to me. They should harden the fuck up and stand up for their freedoms in their own countries instead of saying fuck it and trying to establish a compound in South America.

Right. It only protects the isiah crowell's of the world. Not the milo whatevers.
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

And it apparently protects the hypocrites of the world too, like Leslie Jones:
