I’d have to agree, but I’m just trying to point out that what you mentioned is more or less half of the goal of the republican party. People who support that have no right to complain when it doesn’t go their way.

Care to elaborate? From what I've seen on social media recently (twitter,insta,youtube) it has been mostly republicans and conservatives who have been outspoken about suppression. I can see there being an argument for trump wanting to suppress people who disagree with him but it seems like republicans and conservatives are usually the target of removal and suppression. Now, a lot of those individuals have had some pretty posts or videos in poor taste, but nothing that should be suppressed or removed. There seems to be a pretty clear bias on most of these platforms.

I’m saying that you can’t want as open and free markets as possible and then try to regulate those markets to ensure that everyone can use them as they see fit. That’s kind of the opposite of free-market capitalism, which is a rather common conservative desire.

Gotcha. Wording was just a little confusing
