but it is censorship
imagine if back before tv, all the major radio stations wouldn't let one presidential candidate on the air. and then when some people were like, "yo that's fucked up!" someone said "UMM...THERE'S PLENTY OF SMALLER STATIONS AROUND, HE SHOULD JUST GO TO ONE OF THOSE"

But it's not. You can make up any hypothetical scenarios that you want, but it's not censorship.
it literally matches the definition posted in the thread...
Not really since a breach of user agreement is what's happening. Its not censorship.
the "it's a private company, it can do what it wants cuz that's the law" argument falls apart when we enter new frontiers where the law isn't figured out yet, like what do we do when 5 or less companies control discourse
nestle is a private company following the law too, does that make it cool when it causes droughts in cali
they're going to potentially be held financially liable if they allow people to incite violence or hatred on their platforms. i don't get the confusion over that
i'm not talking about the robinson guy or people like him, if he did what you said. i'm talking more the stuff like banning project veritas from twitter or lil girl soph from youtube. they say hate isn't allowed, but that's politically arbitrary. there's plenty of anti white stuff big on all the major tech platforms, but it flies because there's a narrative that there can't be racism against a majority group. imagine if netflix put out a "dear black people" as a counterpart to "dear white people"
There used to be Minstrel Shows, tryp. There was plenty of racist movies with white leading actors. Some in black face. Don't worry, i don't think white people are suddenly going to be made slaves or suffer through any of the systematic racial oppression that people of color have had to suffer through.

It is, and it's also them removing it retroactively as their terms change overtime.
They haven't prohibited you from finding his stuff and listening to it on other platforms.
Neither hasn't any platform when it's over availability. You're acting like the only censorship is a government ban, like we see over the Chinese internet situation (and potentially soon the Australians, too). Any source of policing availability, especially from centralized sources, is censorship, but many forms of it are accepted by people.
Next you're going to tell me Hollywood doesn't censor anything.

When they change it retroactively... when it already was, now it's worse.

Tell me, if Meta bans Jim for posting CP and other law breaking shit, will you also cry censorship or will you agree that Jim has breached the user agreement and that meta is right for banning him?

It would still be censorship regardless of how I respond to it.
We're discussing what a word means.
