One of the most delicious things for those of us who believe in freedom of speech that have come to light in recent months, is the big time fail by legacy social media platforms over the issue of the New York Post’s expose of the allegedly sleazy behaviour of Hunter Biden, the son of the Democrat Party Presidential candidate.

When this story broke, the first knee jerk reaction of Twitter was to try to suppress this story. However this attempt at censorship has woefully and obviously failed. This act of censorship has turned into a classic example of The Streisand Effect. More people than normal have, because of Twitter censorship, now become aware of the Hunter Biden story than they may otherwise have been. The furore over Twitter censorship of this story has perversely, given this story more publicity and more traction.

I’m not the only one who has noticed this. The blogger Longrider has noticed this as well. Longrider said:

They can no longer claim to be neutral common carriers because no one will believe them. They are publishers and as publishers they must now be held to account for every story, every comment, every racist anti-white tweet that festers on their vile platforms. Now is the time to let the piranha lawyers out and feast on the rotting flesh of these creatures. Screw them to the wall and keep doing it until Dorsey and Zukerberg et al are bled dry. They brought this on themselves.

I agree with Longrider’s comment on this story. It’s time to release the lawyers and get some justice for all those who have been shafted by the legacy social media platforms.
