Yes, it’s exactly like the baker … except it’s not

Naturally, the Leftists who skitter about Twitter like so many cockroaches have landed on what they believe is the perfect “own” when defending the Tech monopolies banning InfoWars.

Here. Let me give you one example:

It's not. It's a private company using their ability to refuse service. Isn't that the thing conservatives are saying about bakeries?

Wow. You really got us, Princess Patriarchy!

[Wait, isn’t adding an “ess” at the end of Prince part of the patriarchy?]

It’s exactly like the baker.

No doubt about it. To a “T.”

Except, maybe not so much.

It would be exactly like the baker if, for example, Masterpiece Cakeshop held a monopoly on all wedding cakes baked in the US. So refusing to bake a gay wedding cake means there is no option for the gay couple.

Then tech monopolies banning InfoWars would be exactly like the baker.

Only. No. It still wouldn’t be the same.

Okay, how about this.

If Masterpiece Cakeshop had not only refused to bake the gay wedding cake but also coordinated with every other wedding vendor to also refuse to serve the couple, then it would be exactly like the baker.

Yup. If the baker, the photographer (who also held a monopoly on all wedding photography), the florist (ditto on the monopoly), the caterer (ditto) the invitation maker (ditto too) and all the other wedding related businesses all got together and decided to simultaneously refuse service to the gay couple then yeah.

InfoWars getting banned by the tech monopolies would be exactly like the baker.

Except. No. It still isn’t exactly like the baker.

But if the tech monopolies were banning InfoWars simultaneously because giving a platform to InfoWars violated the tech monopolies’ freedom of religion, then it would totally be exactly like the baker.

So other than those things, yeah. You’re spot on, Princess Patriarchy.

Of course, since none of those things are the case, it’s nothing like the baker.

But, who cares?

Actually learning stuff and thinking things through is hard.

Better to be a flying monkey on Twitter and proudly display your ignorance.

Because displaying your lack of knowledge is exactly like a Leftist.
