Randazza is bringing some pretty novel claims here. The only one that looks remotely viable to me is the breach of contract claim against Twitter over the terms of service.

Did you even read it? The California constitutional claims under Robins v. Pruneyard are interesting, but a YUGE stretch. Same with the Unruh claims.

Yes, and the complaint sets out the grounds for the relief requested quite clearly. I'm sure there's competing case law on the other side and perhaps it's overwhelming against Taylor but I wouldn't describe the claims as a stretch on paper.

Just because idiots bandy something about doesn't mean it is valid.

The California Supreme Court has spent 30 years limiting its Pruneyard decision to the point where it literally only applies to facts that are on all fours. Turning Twitter into that kind of public square - even with the U.S. Supreme Court's dicta in Packingham - is going to be a tremendous uphill battle. Not saying it's impossible, just novel and unlikely.

Cal SC had its chance to overturn Pruneyard and - stupidly - affirmed it 4-3.

I don't see how there's any way Twitter avoids a pruneyard claim unless they finally overturn it.

Actual lawyer here, yes the Cal SC could always create some results-oriented jurisprudence and decide that Pruneyard doesn't apply to twitter because, mumble mumble mumble, but any honest application of the precedent would hold that Pruneyard either applies to Twitter or should be overturned.

Maybe, except the Cal. Sup. Ct. came back in Ralphs Grocery Co. v. United Food and Commercial Workers Union (2012) and signficantly limited Pruneyard's application to public gathering areas at shopping centers. The principles may be similar, but there are major differences, beginning with the user agreement that one has to enter into in order to use Twitter's services.

Again, they might get there, but it's going to be a big stretch.

is there a legal basis for the argument that a private company should be required to associate with white nationalists even if it doesnt want to?

Not really.

The argument they're making is based on the Pruneyard decision of the Cal. Sup. Ct. that allows private property to be treated as a public forum in limited circumstances, thereby limiting the property owner's ability to limit speech in that place.

I'm saying the argument they're making isn't based on association, which is what the OP of this subthread asked about.

There are also contractual and other statutory arguments besides the California constitution made which all have prima facie bases. Obviously there isn't a direct precedent and that's why it could be a landmark case but the foundation to build it is there
