Glenn Greenwald:

It is indescribably shocking and sickening that the nation's two largest media outlets were the ones who did the FBI's work and hunted for the leaker and outed him.

But what they did at the Pentagon was only slightly less gross. (supporting / pushing for the government to censor free speech)
And?


There is no law or higher power that is forcing you to use social media. You have the option to switch to any social media replacement, be it open source, decentralized, on the TOR network, or operated out of another country.



If people are so up in arms about how downhill the government is, why don't rightists forfeit their citizenship and apply for citizenship in another country which is better focused on your views?


That statement is true for the leftists too. If they believe the government is so corrupt and doesn't align to their views, why don't they do something about it, or leave?

The First Amendment's protection of freedom of speech applies to government action and does not directly apply to private entities or individuals. This means that private companies, such as privately-owned internet sites, are generally free to regulate speech on their platforms as they see fit, without necessarily being bound by the requirements of the First Amendment.
