I get a whiplash reading comments on this sub. On Elon/Twitter threads this is exactly what people are pushing for.

Twitter is a private company with people arguing about how they should moderate their own, optionally used website.

This is a law. The only way to "not use" it would be to emigrate, which is often expensive and can take years.

There's a difference between deleting your Twitter account and deciding to stop being British, thus the difference in opinion of how much censorship is too much.

calling people slurs and encouraging hate based on racial or sexual identity is not the same thing, and it seems like you're equating the two, which is terribly inaccurate
