free speech platform

1. A platform that claims people can say whatever they feel, but when tested actually censors speech criticizing right-wing politics
2. A platform that actually does post everything people say, but ends up censored anyway because anything meaningful gets buried under more "correct" topics and probably never seen
1. I posted facts about Trump's connection to tax evasion on a free speech platform. It was promptly removed by the moderators.
2. I posted my theory about Sonic the Hedgehog on a free speech platform because the mainstream Sonic fandom was attacking it. But it just got covered up by Fortnite stuff. Guess my speech still isn't free.

platform

A gaming term that also merges two meanings: it refers to a synonym for the "side scroller" genre, where the gameplay involves moving sideways through levels, and the console or operating system on which a video game is played.
Whether you're playing on a console or PC, the platform can greatly affect your gaming experience, especially in side scrollers!
