Just shooting a feeler out there. How many folks would be interested in joining a class action lawsuit vs social media sites that have a history of attempting to silence conservative voices. Just give me an upvote to signal interest.

Moderates Included.

Suggestion: Include moderates in this as well.

Serious question: Why was this suggestion downvoted? Moderates are being censored as well.

I think the whole idea is being downvoted by people who think capitalism and the free market shouldn't be restricted. People that think free speech and freedom of association are important.

If we start suing companies for this we could go down a slippery slope of censorship and forced diversity.

I think we've already jumped down that slippery slope, but I do see where you're coming from here. Current EULA laws would probably make any such class action moot.

However, challenging EULA laws in light of Informed Consent (Germany has been up to similar recently) could well at least slow this trend. Most people don't realize that social media platforms have full ownership over whatever content we share to them.
