Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds?
Sounds authoritarian. Sounds lefty loony.
You are demanding that people think your way.
He’s been receiving a lot of help these months by corporations who fire employees
who they deem anti MAGA. MSNBC for example firing Matthew Dowd. Law firms moving employees around and offering DJT million dollar services. No wonder he feels empowered.
Really sucks, doesn't it Jim? Who can forget your thundering, righteous voice after The Madness,
fearlessly defending righties who were doxxed and, sometimes, lost their jobs for things they wrote online or past comments. Kudos. Kudos, I say, for your usual intellectual consistency.
Okay Mr. Dunderhead, name one righty who was silenced by the federal government.
You can’t. But go ahead and try.
All the people silenced on social media after the federal government pressured Twitter and FB don't
count? Remarkably, under pressure from the feds, Twitter even deplatformed a former POTUS. One judge labeled the feds' pressuring of social media giants to censor speech during COVID the greatest assault on the 1st Amendment in our history. Did they cover the Twitter Files investigation on your news sources, or did they just assure you that there was nothing to see there?
Jim, like the others, I know you don't know what "fascism" means, but I will just tell you one of the defining characteristics of fascism: private businesses that are controlled by the state.
No they don't count because the gov't tried to quell the misinformation being spread by bad actors
during the C19 crisis. You know, things like Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine and clorox and UV lamps and a thousand other
bs cures. So yeah, pressuring social media platforms to do the right thing wasn't really the best thing to do but Musk and
FB mostly lied about their doings so it didn't really work and to just point out because of their noncompliance allowing
false information to spread many died instead of doing the right thing. You know, people like Windy Bill and a few others
here spreading bullshit killed others as well as themselves -
But in this thread, it's about facts and truths being assaulted by lies and misinformation and a power hungry douchebag who
wants revenge for being taken to court, convicted because he broke the law a great many times. Fomented an insurrection, cheated
charities, stole from college students, unlawfully created false votes to try to steal and election, tried to coerce a governor
to change votes and on and on.
So go on, tell me about fascism and authoritarianism.
Are you listening to yourself?
"It's okay for the government to trample on the 1st Amendment if it's done for the right reasons."
I'm 100% opposed to what Trump is doing. You should be 100% opposed to what the Biden Administration did.
That would make one...

No that’s not what I said. I said these are not the same even if
you try to characterize them as the same. You and MASCHUCKLES are poor readers.

There is no such thing as "hate speech," as the author claims. Do you believe there is such a thing?

Supreme Court’s definition of “hate speech” or Trump’s?

The SCOTUS has repeatedly ruled that there is no such thing.

No shit. Well done catching up. Tell Pam Bondi.

She's awful. Are you done trying to misdirect? Where do you draw the line on speech?

Already weighed in last week.
"discriminatory harassment" (chuckling) You gave it away, yes you did.
In real life, apart from your job, have you ever taken a tough position in which you risked offending someone in a protected class?
Did you see President Shitbag’s eulogy?
Once upon a time, presidents tried to bring us together…

So, you expect concessions to those who encouraged & celebrated the assassination. Very refined post

I expect leadership. Kirk’s wife was a leader. Not your hero.

Since your idea of leadership is appeasement, your errant response is unsurprising.
“Make no mistake, that rifle was aimed at Charlie Kirk. But that bullet was meant for every single one of us (Christians/conservatives)….President Donald Trump
He’s right.
By the killer and many other LGBTQ/Left Wing/Intifada attackers’ own words, they are not interested in dialogue - just complete capitulation.
We must stand up to them.
Great leadership,
Once upon a time, the president thought voters for the other guy were garbage.
That was Biden. Obama wanted hispanics to vote so that they could punish their enemies. "Once upon a time" was Bush, I guess?
A weak and stupid whatabout effort. Even for you.

You are the one who said "once upon a time." We can't respond to your own references to the past?
You have to rig the game to win a discussion point? I expect more from you, but you always disappoint.
Hearing the left whine about Free Speech is awesome.

As long as you aren't talking about/writing about COVID vaccine alternatives or racial differences.
I mean, that kind of talk is dangerous.
