Marjorie Taylor Greene Thinks It Was Illegal for Twitter to Ban Her

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene recently claimed during a hearing that Twitter broke the law when they suspended her account for violating their terms of service. Greene’s argument is rooted in Twitter violating her free speech rights. But the congresswoman, like so many of her followers, doesn’t understand that the First Amendment applies to the government, not to private companies like Twitter. Social media platforms still have the right to set their own standards and enforce them as they see fit. There is also no guarantee of freedom of speech in all circumstances and there are limitations, such as incitement to violence. Social media companies are private businesses and can enforce their policies however they want. This does not necessarily mean it should be this way, but this is the paradigm we currently operate under and that the law protects. Marjorie Taylor Greene will have to deal with this reality and come to terms with the fact that this issue has nothing to do with the First Amendment.
