I think you misunderstood. He said the Polish gov. is ANTI-social media censorship

Yeah, he said that it's our government's idea and he hope they are successful. And I believe it's like cutting your whole arm off just because your thumb got infection.

I am sure our government wouldn't care even the slightest about LGB Alliance's censorship on Twitter, they would just use it only to censor (by fines) any free media that dare to criticize them. They tried to add more taxes for our independent media just a few weeks ago, so I am not making this up. They are loosing support so they need to crush freedom of press and media before next elections in 3 years.

And I want to make it clear. I'm against giving so much censorship power to private corporations like Facebook or Twitter, since whether we like it or no, they heavily shape our societies - and can change the outcomes of elections. This needs to be controlled. But our government are autocrats - they won't use it for free speech.

Gay couple was stabbed in the back by knife just two days ago in Warsaw. This would never be covered by 'free' media if PIS (Law and Justice) could make it happen.

So you're expecting Poland to censor platforms they deem censorious? Not trolling, genuinely wanna know more.

They will censor any media that opposes their ideology (right-wing, nationalism, Catholicism, homophobia, etc.) and reveals their mistakes, corruption and such. So they would shrug at hearing that "Koalicja LGB" was banned on Twitter. Even more likely, they probably eat popcorn watching us LGBT people infighting.

Some media (mostly liberal) are deep in TQ stuff, yes, but they are the only one criticizing PIS and it's politicians on valid issues like corruption. All right-wing media are in the pocket of PIS' politicians and their supporters and it's not even a conspiracy theory, because tracing those connections is easy and it's known by the public.

Also small local press media around Poland were recently bought by Polish state oil corporation - Orlen - so there's even a bigger pressure on independent media.
