The Marsh case handles a scenario in which a private company controlled the public space.

The big 3 of social media currently do the same thing, however in a digital sphere. Trumps twitter, for example, was ruled as a public resource and therefore he couldn't block users from his feed. So here we have a private property leveraged as a public gathering space.

Would you have the same opinion here if Twitter was banning minorities based on race? Is it still a private company that can do whatever they please?

and acted as a de-facto government by providing fire, police and other services typically provided by governments. Twitter is not similar, as multiple people have already mentioned.

His personal Twitter feed is a public resource. Trump is the government, blocking people is literally the government limiting free speech. Twitter is not the government.

No, because they are very different, as explained by justice.gov [1].

"Federal laws prohibit discrimination based on a person's national origin, race, color, religion, disability, sex, and familial status."

Then please explain to me individuals like Sarah Jeong being outwardly racist yet a member of the blue check cadre.

There is clearly a double standard here, and you seem to be in the grouping of individuals that appreciate the oppression when it suits your own interests.

Now we have moved the goalposts from banning people to giving blue checks. I'm not even sure what stance you are arguing anymore. One more time, Twitter is not the government.

Mike Cernovich is outwardly racist and has a blue check, what's your point? Are you applying a double standard?

I'm pointing out that twitter selectively bans individuals who step over a line arbitrarily drawn by twitter, not anti discrimination laws.

Which people continue to explain is perfectly legal because twitter is NOT the government.
