    I just don’t understand how hosting a platform to allow people to talk would make you liable since you’re not the one responsible for the speech itself.

      We should get the thought police in on this also, stop it before it has a chance to spread. For real though, people need to take accountability for their own actions and stop trying to deflect it onto others.
