In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold.

See the pattern?

In China, you cannot say anything the government disagrees with, like criticizing their Covid lockdowns, or they'll arrest you.

In Russia, you cannot say anything the government disagrees with, like holding up a blank piece of paper, or they'll arrest you.

In Florida, a company cannot say that they are non-discriminatory and value everyone, that the Republicans don't like them saying, or they'll use their power to attack them to try to silence them.

The pattern is fairly clear: liberals are fascists and tyrants. Just ask a right-winger.

That is absurd under DiSantis. Republicans don't attack people - that is left up to the left-wing radical communists in your party. They break heads.
 
Telling social media what to censor? That's a lie. Did not happen.
What dangerous misinformation? Where you asleep during the height of the Covid pandemic? Here is just a taste of the misinformation spread primarily by republican conspiracy theorists:
  • ivermectin is safe and effective for treating/preventing coronavirus;
  • you can get the corona virus from the vaccine itself;
  • there are microchips in the vaccine;
  • hydroxychloroquine is safe and effective to treat the coronavirus;
  • masks don't help prevent the spread of coronavirus;
  • we can achieve herd immunity by letting the virus spread;
The your body/your choice reference is also silly. Is the suggestion that mandating people where masks in order to help thwart the spread of the disease to others a real infringement on your right to self determination?

And your last question is perhaps the dumbest of all. First off, those companies are private businesses. Controlling their content is what all media companies do. You folks just whine about it because those companies don't want idiots spreading dangerous lies on their platform.
You really are a captive of your own narrative.
Yes it did happen. The White House conferred with Facebook about what they (the WH) said was misinformation and FB acted.
Your body your choice was a reference to vaccination ... not masks.
Ever hear of VAERS? Look it up.
The NIH itself has documented that ivermectin & HCQ can be effective and herd immunity is very effective.
Why would information about lab leaks at Wuhan be censored? Did that save any lives?
 
In the rest of the US, you cannot say anything the government doesn't like or they will bring big tech, lawsuits and the media to silence you.
When have you been silenced? You post the same stupid shit here daily.
 
There aren't any. False equivalency is still false.
Sure, sure...no similarities at all in your mind. Of course, in your mind, authoritarianism isn't actually authoritarianism so long as it's forcing what you support on people and not those icky other beliefs.
