...what? American freedom of speech has, if anything, gotten less restrictive over time and it never was restrictive to begin with. you quite literally have to go out of your way to utter something which isn't protected speech at this point (and the First Amendment has never covered private corporations so nobody is losing a "right" when Twitter tells you that you can't wish for a second Holocaust)
Thanks, yeah, I definitely am the kind of person to wish for a second holocaust. /thread
i think context makes it pretty obvious this is a generalized you (i quite literally say "nobody", which is an indefinite and plural pronoun), so i'm not sure why you're taking offense to this as if i'm saying you personally want a second Holocaust. if i thought you wanted that, as an admin i'd just say it to your face and ban you since you wouldn't be a good fit for here
