Free Speech on the Internet

The Internet is now the pivotal center of free speech and the juggernaut of human communication. It plays a powerful role in the opinions, thoughts and understanding of people throughout the world. I, for many years have enjoyed and participated in that opportunity. Some like my opinions, some hate them and others don't give a shit. Fair enough, we all have our opinions, interests and battles to fight.  

However, no matter what site I participate in, if I take a controversial view or especially an original view, I get banned. In a kind of a way, I feel proud that my statements unsettle lessor men to react in that way. However, I am then cut off from making arguments against them or in the case of eBaum's have had my entire arguments removed due to playful banter. 

What a powerful source to have a button that simply disintegrates those who have opinions that you don't agree with. Like having the MSM at your finger tips to take the narrative where you desire. 

My latest ban was from InfoWars, I gave them shit about a story they put out as being exaggerated and I got the axe! They don't even have the decency to explain why I got banned and for how long. On top of that, there are no lines of communications I can establish to understand or rectify the situation. 

Other sites, while having channels to settle disputes, always sheep dog your actions into one corner and bully you into shutting the fuck up and if that doesn't work, they just shut you the fuck up. 

I guess Freedom of Speech only exists for those who control the speech.
