I'm not a Trump fan by any means. But when it comes to combating reckless censorship and fighting for free speech, especially in social media, I approve of what he is doing.
all too often social media sites exercise political favoritism by censoring outspoken members of one side or the other. In my mind social media should be seen as a public utility and as such its users should have protections to freedom of speech that you arent usually guaranteed in a private space.
This also may mean that a lot of fediverse instances that have servers in America might need to start second guessing their draconian censorship policies, and that would be a happy change.

@freemo I don't feel this incident is censorship in any shape or form. His tweet was not deleted just notice about him lying was added. It is not supressing of free speech, they are using it to combat stupidity. I would love for twitter do that more instead of deleting tweets.
@vnarek Yea, i guess lets wait and see...
