“It’s not right that things can be said on TV or the floor of Congress, but not on our platforms,”

I somewhat respect that statement actually.

I thought it's widely-agreed that gender dysphoria is a mental illness. The debate lies in how to treat it—try to realign the body with the mind or the mind with the body.

The problem is that people are vulnerable to disinformation and now there is little to no pushback on these platforms.

In a world where people are expert critical thinkers with no biases and perfect rationality it wouldn't matter, but that isn't how people work in the slightest.

The problem is that people want to censor what they don't want to see for others.
