EFF still does.
MAGA is the one who decided ideas like freedom of expression, an expectation of privacy, and holding governments accountable were woke liberal concepts.

Massie, a republican, and Rand Paul, another republican, are by far the most supportive of free speech politicans in congress.
By what metric?
The freedom index is a good start.

Massie has 99% And Paul was at 96 % in the 117th congress

Maybe a good start if you're a specific flavor of person, but it would be pretty amazing to claim it's an objective observer of "freedom" when the Freedom Index is a John Birch Society project, which is an ultraconservative advocacy group.
Just because it's called the freedom index, doesn't mean it's concerned with the freedom of all man, look to the civil rights movement for easy examples of how JBS' "freedom" is only for certain people.
Hell, click over to the JBS website and you'll see Alex Jones and Steve Bannon front and center on their home page. It's crazy to refer to one of their projects as some neutral arbiter.
Whoa!

It is full of things that are not what I would consider freedoms. Freedoms of companies to exploit oil reserves is one. Voting no to taxpayer funded healthcare is a good thing,apparently.
Edit: and I didnt look further than 3 clicks away. They are not hiding their political bias very well.
Looking very quickly at some of the votes being tracked, I don't see any vote that remotely qualifies as supporting or opposing free speech. Instead, they're focusing on things like "do you oppose the Federal Reserve making interest payments?" "do you oppose cryptocurrency regulations?" "do you oppose energy efficiency regulations for appliances?"
So no, it's not a good start.
You cannot be serious. Looking at the 'Freedom Index', I can see them approving of things like restricting abortion, giving the executive even more power and more.
And neither of them are MAGA. They fucking hate Trump. Republicans aren't all MAGA.
Blue Sky heavily censors its platform
Blue Sky has like 3 dozen employees or something nuts like that. They have no time to perform censoring at the scale other platforms do.

No citation needed for Twitter censorship, just badmouth Elmo and you'll see what happens to your reach.

So people specifically get there to be as big of an ass as they can be and then get all pikachu.jpg when they get banned?
It's a private platform, not a public utility. They can choose their customers.
The point of these videos is that no platform that values freedom of expression and diverse points of view would have auto-ban systems for the kinds of things that he said. X is massively more liberal in what it allows and what it tolerates before it will ban someone than Blue Sky. So the EFF's claims are totally disingenuous and I don't think people should stand for it no matter where they stand politically.
Youtube videos are not reliable sources.
> ideas like freedom of expression, an expectation of privacy, and holding governments accountable
This was a bipartisan agreement. Democrats just say "nothingburger" a lot when you talk about it.
The EFF is, and has always been, a libertarian org with a narrow focus.
That is incredible rewriting of history.
How? He's "investigating" CNN right now for...something? Something about them reporting on the Iran war
No, that is the obvious and clear truth. MAGA has done a pretty good job at making the opposite appear true, though.
True as stated, but if you generalize the statement to "enemy concepts", who decided that?
For example, where did the term "freeze peach" come from?
