@Trumpshanz You’re a troll. Name the malfeasance in posting opinions. What’s the legal issue?

@Trumpshanz Again - so what? He owns the platform. He’s not allowed to speak on? What’s wrong with you?

@mtaibbi The point of the while platform is to create a pulpit for him to espouse and further his world view. He's kind of a sociopath. There's a little more to it than "handling someone's option." I love heterodox shit! You're a journalist, for God's sake. Give it some thought.

@Trumpshanz Who cares what he calls it? Are you a child? You can’t handle someone’s opinion?

He’s doing something legal you don’t like?' is part of a broader conversation that involves a debate about the legality and ethical implications of a public figure's actions on a platform.

    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.

    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
