politics

personally i think that the chance it crossed the line is exactly equivalent to the chance that it crossed the line

dolf idk if it did or not and I don't like biden, it's a semantics game with where the "line" is

define misinformation

that's the point

define what is covid misinformation

thats the line

there is no definition

not just on social media companies

but media outlets as well he said

media outlets is an eaiser argument

it's not just arguably vague words like mis and disinformation

because he just wants state controlled media at this point

hes talking about covid misinformation

i want him to define that

it's that he says he's making an appeal, not a command

and in the legal world, that matters

yes but then thats someone being silenced due to the presidents request

it's not a command

Its not like he's forcing the platforms to do it

Or saying he will do things if they dont

I don't care if the social media platforms are already on that path

The platforms have their right to do whatever they want, regardless of his request

twitter is arguably a public forum that shouldn't be able to remove anyone but that would kill them as a business

Sure, they “have the right” because they control the system, whereas gab apparently doesn’t have the right

no social media outlet is a platform anymore

"dont like it make your own"

"why are you making your own echo chamber"

Twitter gets to ban the president but the president isn’t allowed to block anyone

"ban it from the internet this isnt save"

"make your own internet"

fuck off connor

These people should be imprisoned, or worse

? When did I say any of this

i didnt say you did

And why are you telling me to fuck off, lol

"twitter can ban who they want" but when its after the president asking them to silence people the argument is clear they are doing it at his request

which is by extension the government censoring free speech

it does not matter if he mandated it or not

You only get to do whatever the fuck you want if you have the approved politics

you most likely would not legally win that

I agree

because the republicans in the courts are spinless

spineless

Social media censors sitting members of congress and the president himself, fuck their rights

except for the black one

and Alito sometimes

Reminder there was a point where people found circles of child predators on Twitter and they refused to take down their accounts, and even suspended some of the people who pointed it out

stating specifically it didnt break their guidelines

Not to mention there’s actual violent dictators and terrorists (arguable terminology) who don’t get censored

It’s solely about controlling western free speech

not even just a random at twitter at that point Jack Doresey was on Tim Pools podcast and stated that also iirc

these companies should burn for how they behave and the twisted things they do/allow, yes

side note

how the fuck is not going to a debate an attack on democracy

these people are retarded

withdrawing for democracy*

but yes that's fucking stupid, the RNC is retarted

they constantly do things to hurt themselves, it's almost like they don't want to win

to their credit the debates are fucked anyways

Or they want to minimize risk because they’ve been floundering for so long

Yes, but withdrawing is basically admitting defeat

the last 5 moderators were Anderson Cooper, Lester Holt, Kristen Welker, Martha Raddatz and Chris Wallace

that would be akin to the superbowl between Patriots and Packers and letting the Patriots assistant coach ref the game

A guy like trump always gained support through debates, every time

not a single one of those moderators were republicans

Cutting down on how many debates he got was specifically to sabotage his progress

i also enjoy that each person tweeting this mentions trump

as if they just automatically assume hes the reason

and will even be the nominee

Trumps the only one worth mentioning

Is Chris Wallace not a republican? Idk much about these people

He’s not

being a fox anchor does not equal republican

either way he works for CNN now

so no

he isnt

and never was

He was basically the Biden apologist of fox

Ok
