Something something "it is only censorship if the government does it," something something "deplatforming works," something something "private companies can do what they want."

I am a bit older than much of the Hacker News crew. I remember the right doing this kind of nonsense and thinking it was lousy. Watching the left take this sort of thing up a few decades later, only to act as if it could never possibly happen to them, has been disheartening.

People keep forging shackles and never pause to ask if the manacles might fit their wrists, as well.
