The Spin
Republican narrative
Content moderation on social media reflects a dangerous overreach, stifling the marketplace of ideas that underpins democracy. When platforms censor "fake news" or "hate speech" — terms with inherently vague definitions — they inevitably silence legitimate political discourse.
Democratic narrative
Content moderation decisions are made independently based on clear platform policies, not government pressure, and are necessary to maintain a safe online environment while protecting free expression and fostering meaningful public discourse. Social media platforms have a civic duty to maintain civilized public discourse.
