Punishing censorship on social media: what do you think?

This just simply isn't true. An employer can still fire someone if it is believed they have done or said something that would significantly harm their employer. That still happens.
Yes...but her tweet had nothing to do with her employer. It had to do with the POTUS and someone else.

No, her tweet significantly harmed her status as a public figure, thus it harms the businesses she is a public representative of. It is not illegal for someone who is a public figure to lose work, or have their projects dropped if they do something that harms their public perception and the public perception of the organisation they work for.

And no, it had nothing to do with the POTUS.

Explain me what was wrong about that tweet.

Dems are the most biased (we use the word doubledstandardists in Italian) in the world when it comes about freedom of speech, they think that "dissing, insulting Trumpians is freedom of speech", whereas rightists cannot do anything. They are supposed to shut up 24/7.

That is why our Rightist Government decided to stand up for freedom of speech and set an example of equality.
No more double standards.
Example?

Very strong language
Then it's actions that are responsible. Not the words.
Words can instigate actions, have you not heard of that? It's a crazy idea I know. Still, denying this obvious fact let's one get away with murder.
"I didn't shoot him your Honour, I only told him to." Good luck with leaving the court a free person with that line.

If we speak of the Italian context...I had asked whether this tweet falls within freedom of speech



Alessandra Mussolini announcing the schedule of the visits inside Mussolini's crypt (where he is buried).
And someone replied "there will be more worms outside of the tomb than inside of it". (LOL)

Sorry but I'm not sure how this is an example of:

"Dems are the most biased (we use the word doubledstandardists in Italian) in the world when it comes about freedom of speech, they think that "dissing, insulting Trumpians is freedom of speech", whereas rightists cannot do anything. They are supposed to shut up 24/7."

You don't understand what's wrong with comparing an Iranian woman to "the Muslim brotherhood" and saying she looks like an ape?

In my country people believe that that period 2009-2016 was the period of the American Sultanate.
No wonder that Putin became so popular....seeing what the White House had become: an emirate.

Does this fall within the freedom of speech?

He said those things out loud, on a street corner? So where's the "thought" crime?

"In order to not make anyone listening feel singled out, he said “Jesus died for the sinner…. Every heterosexual has sin. Every homosexual has sin. Sin is when we violate the laws of God….” He did not target any particular group of people or single out homosexuality."

Not to mention the bias in your article. Um, yeah he did single people out. Out loud: Gay people. Specifically.

You proved my point about doublestandardism.
Insulting Trump is rightful.
Whoever said insults aren't protected freedom of speech?

Do you not understand the difference between insulting someone because of what they said or did and insulting somebody because of their race?

So I can tweet anything about Obama?
No...because....double standards rule.
Er, yes. Yes you can tweet anything about Obama.

Do you think there are no tweets that insult Obama?
