You have a point, but the problem is that the door should swing both ways which clearly isn't the case.

The examples you provided are of services provided to the general public and laws exist to curb discriminatory practices.
The free speech aspect, we went over yesterday.
Twitter is a service provided to the general public too, but I think I get your point...
the difference is a law vs a constitutional amendment, right?

Twitter is a private entity that offers a service to the public as long as you abide by terms and conditions. Much like ATS. They can pull your account at any time for any reason in regards to "speech".
A barber, restaurant and such can also have you removed from their property if they do not like your "speech", but they cannot on the basis of sex, age, race, etc, which were part of your example.

Not even progressives and other extremists could disagree, but their training will not allow them to admit it.
Its always "nice" when someone thinks they can think for other people.

It's a service I offer as clearly progressives can't think for themselves

I added another and a stick out tongue just to make SURE you knew i was joking lol
I get that. I still find it odd why race, sex, religion is protected but speech is not.
Personally I find it more of an issue to suppress speech than to protect against racism, but 'them's the laws' I guess.

This will make Milo more popular than ever before. Why does the left keep shooting themselves in the foot?

Twitter's CEO @Jack has no problem with ISIS recruiting on his platform, instead focusing his attention on banning gay conservatives because of anonymous internet trolls.

Ahhhhh, I know
We've had our rounds. That's what forums are for. Don't need to always agree.
In my experience I've found Conservatives to be followers, and Progressives to be the thinkers.
