I'm confused why you don't feel this way. The USA is one of the only countries in the world where there are not laws on speech beyond the fire in a movie theater type examples. Are you not aware of this? Not only is speech allowed, speech then is allowed against your stance. Ever read the First Amendment, AKA where the freedom of speech comes from? Quote Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I suspect that no one honestly believes that and instead is arguing from a position of extreme bad faith...which is par for the course in the rotten GOP media. Something something Venezuela... I'm not talking about twitter, I'm talking about society. Sorry if I was misunderstood. Just now, PleaseBlitz said: Ever read the First Amendment, AKA where the freedom of speech comes from? Exactly. And those laws are going to be changed. That amendment will either be altered or circumvented. It will occur. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See it was cute for a while. And then annoying. And then frustrating to listen to people like you draw false equivalencies and give us your uneducated and unaware opinion over the years. (The general “you” here - as in the general Republican Party supporter) but now it’s unacceptable. if you want to side with the traitors, and the white supremacists, that’s your call. You do you. but you’re not going to find much help along the independents and the republicans left that aren’t fascist wannabe revolutionists. ps- your understanding of the first amendment is laughably wrong.

Hate Speech / Dangerous Speech will be codified in law and then its definiton will slowly be expanded to fit any dissenting opinion. It will be judged as constitutional via a packed court.

I wouldn't mind if it was altered to make the term "speech" and "press" more concrete. For example: current interpretation of "speech" includes "money"...this was the root of the Citizens United ruling that opened the way for SupePACS. I'm not sure having more money resulting in having a more influential voice was what the founders intended, nor should it necessarily be protected. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro tip: instead of spending your time worrying about what might happen, way down the road, a road that will have lots of stops along the way for everyone to reevaluate... why don’t you spend your time worrying about the crisis right in front of us. That’s in the middle of happening. And is undeniable. Do some soul searching. The rest of us already did. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would still be a Federal building meaning the Fed has jurisdiction, right? The most immediate thing it would have changed on January 6 is that whoever was the equivalent of Governor would not have had to beg to mobilize the National Guard. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TradeTheBeal! Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Just a reminder that Twitter suspended the accounts of almost 100 leftist/occupy accounts back in 2013 or so for inciting violence against police and the government. Right-wing hot take guy didn’t say a word about it...and neither did we. And for good reason. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
