The way I see it, because the government cannot censor speech AOC wants companies like Facebook to do it. Very dishonest. I would expect calls from people against any censorship, not for it.
Well, OK lol
Show me something AOC has _said_, not a meme of a dubious quote with her face on it.
And again, I'd also like you to explain the logical leap between "AOC blocked some people on Twitter" to "AOC wants the power to tell Facebook who to censor".

I'm not prepared to argue this applies to her in the same way, but maybe the person who you're responding to thinks it is parallel, so perhaps more dialogue than just scoffing would be appropriate.
>because the government cannot censor speech AOC wants companies like Facebook to do it.
Ok, AOC shouldn't be allowed to block people on Twitter. What does that have to do with the original claim?
But now that I have read it, I'm confused even more about the responses.
Blocking people on Twitter is arguably (because the courts are saying so) a violation of the constitution. For an elected official at least.
If someone wants to regulate speech, and they have tried and been prevented from doing so on first amendment grounds, it seems likely motivation to search for a legal alternative method to achieve their goals.
Is AOC against Facebook regulating content then?
I don't think I see the motivation/goal attributed to her as illegitimate. Maybe everyone is taking for granted that it's a "loophole".
