Reddit officials forces moderators to reopen subreddits or get overthrown
So what would happen if the mods refused to moderate and let anybody post anything they want? It's not like they are getting paid and reddit isn't going to pay anybody to moderate.

Some fun facts about this case.
There was no web design business. There was no gay client asking for a super gay wedding website. The supposed client didn't even know about the case and is not gay.
The supreme court took on a hypothetical case and used it to make gays second class citizens.

Do you like lots of nazi content? Do you like lots of redpill manosphere content? do you like right wing conspiracy theories? Do you like white supremacists in your feed? If so twitter is just fine for you.

There is another point you are missing. Reddit uses browser fingerprinting to doxx and identify it's user base so that they can bin your data properly when they sell it. Third party apps thwart this effort as they can't tie your account to somebody who logs into the web site or uses their app.

What happened to efforts to ‘defund the police’ in Minneapolis and elsewhere?
Did crime actually surge? No it didn't. It was just hyped. As usual failure to control the narrative was a fatal flaw. Something the right understands better than the left.

Nuclear power doesn't pay for itself apparently. Also it takes a very long time to even build a reactor. Wind and hydro are much cheaper to build and can be done rapidly.

Majority of American Voters Shrug at Trump Indictment. 53 Percent Want Him Pardoned If Convicted
Regarding President Joe Biden, Trump’s disinformation campaign against him and his son, Hunter, also appears to have taken root in voters’ minds. The majority of respondents, 55 percent, said the FBI is “not really investigating” corruption allegations against Biden while 57 percent believe Biden “took a $5 million bribe” while serving as vice president, despite no evidence of that occurring.
this shows you who they polled.

They are corporations and they have the right to control the content on their platforms. That's why decentralized forums are much better but even then any admin of any server can do whatever they want with their instance.

Being a scientist and being a debater are different skill sets. In science debate is done via peer review and papers and in the case of medicine by doing trials.
RJK and Rogan are fucking morons and the only way to debate them would be to continually call them evil stupid fucks because that's what they are. Anything else is going to allow them to edit your comments to make them look like to their stupid evil audience.

Twitter has suspended the accounts of a prominent Tesla and Elon Musk critic, PlainSite founder Aaron Greenspan

I don't think he is very smart at all and I also don't think he is trolling. I think he really is a white supremacist, hates trans people, and is generally a right wing idiot.
When people show you who they are, believe them.

Just bought my first macbook what apps should I install as a web developer?

I would suggest vs code over sublime myself.
First thing you need to install is homebrew, the second docker, vs code next.
from that point on try and do everything with docker.

The consequences were not unintended. These were the intended consequences. Same consequences that happened in Georgia when they did the same thing and had to roll it back.
