Ron Paul on Big Tech censorship

Last week’s massive social media purges – starting with President Trump’s permanent ban from Twitter and other outlets – was shocking and chilling, particularly to those of us who value free expression and the free exchange of ideas.  The justifications given for the silencing of wide swaths of public opinion made no sense and the process was anything but transparent.  Nowhere in President Trump’s two “offending”  Tweets, for example, was a call for violence expressed explicitly or implicitly.  It was a classic example of sentence first, verdict later.
