^these days, pointing out the obvious rustles the most jimmies

It couldn't have anything to do with race, could it?

!agree

Dankula's server is currently a nightmare. It's like a YT livestream chat but in Discord form

His Discord is both figuratively and literally a shit show.

I wouldn't say JBP panders to men, though. He tells people what they need to hear, not what they want to hear

It's easier to respect someone you disagree with if you get to the root of why there is the disagreement. Most of the time, it's not because of malevolence but a different POV

Lesbians definitely don't think trans women are women.

Are lesbians transphobic or are trans people homophobic? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

@Dr.Wol yes, you could look at it that way but you'd be an insane person lmao

A friend, of course

To be fair, I was thinking of speaking to a friend in this scenario

I would look at the disagreement as a root cause analysis and use the 5 Whys until you get to the bottom

On another topic, ever notice how only the far left hears these so called "racist dogwhistles" from people who are not on the far left? 🤔

I basically use IG exclusively

And YT to watch videos

But I look through my FB feed every once in a while so that I'm not in my own echo chamber

And see all the propaganda lmao

Tim said WAPO was fake news months ago

Eric Weinstein also made the same argument

Matt Christiansen is probably my favourite political commentator on YT

Don't you ever tell me how to live my life again

Lol

#banbutts - the Spanish Police (probably)

Lmao Kristi Winters. What a disaster of a human being

I wonder why 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Japan was a mistake

This could all be explained by how the nuclear fallout affected their brains

Plus tentacle porn

Good to know

I'd rather not

The word "basta" means "enough" in Italian.

Henry Cavill is #woke

I'm just telling you what it could mean. I don't know what he specifically means by writing that. Could be an acronym or something. In context, "enough" could make sense.

Lots of speculation

^context for Papa Johns

Yeah but he has millions of dollars. His life can't be that bad

That's a straw man.

Which is not true...

That sounds insane

*is insane

Yeah but those toddlers are a public nuisance

#woke 8 year olds are getting too #woke

The "How Dare You, Sir" Law

Also, I feel like we're skimming over the word "atrocity" being used to describe an insult

@Rabbi Shekels I was referencing the SC/ST act mentioned by Shivangi above

An insult is considered an atrocity lmao

No worries 😉

Insert Princess Bride "You Keep Using That Word" Meme

Because MAPS are people too

That article sounds very anti-LGBT

I've never heard that take but my knowledge of India as a political power is extraordinarily limited

@Uksio in terms of western imperialism, they also abolished the practice of slavery

Least surprising news of the day?

I'm definitely waiting for the swathes of articles saying "Why Abolish ICE is racist"

^sounds like a rape threat

British MP Jess Philipps would definitely think it's a threat

"You wouldn't even rape me? How dare you!"

Given enough time, she'll (he'll/xir'll) be just as dead inside as the rest of us

Hahahaha

Holy shit

Context is key and the context is definitely racist

It's 2016, I don't want to assume anyone's gender

I would say rap/hip-hop

Eminem is rap and he white as shit

Artist/Art separation

Lady Gaga is a weirdo but she has some bangers

Yeah that song is great

Golddigger is his best song

But I haven't really heard anything after "Graduation"

You're looking at both criminal and civil problems here

Libel and defamation are not criminal

But, if you can prove damages and intent, you have a civil case and can sue

So, libel is technically free speech but you can be held financially responsible for it in civil court

If he can prove he wouldn't have suffered those losses without the libel/defamation, then they definitely count as damages

It is free speech because it's not a criminal offense to lie about someone in the public space

Because you could lie due to ignorance or due to malevolence

But she had tort liability due to damages she caused from her actions

Which can trigger a lawsuit

@Grenade123 you're being sued for the losses caused by your actions

If the actions cause no financial losses, you won't get anything by suing

@Grenade123 yup. Negligence is the minimum requirement

Suing for libel/slander could be considered a check on someone to prevent them from ruining the lives of innocent people

From my perspective, a free speech absolutist is someone who is against the government imposing ANY laws on speech (with the exception of inciting violence/threats)

Because those actions infringe on the rights of others

You're not free from consequences

You can get sued, fired from your job, socially ostracised

But you shouldn't be imprisoned for having the "wrong" opinion

I'm calling the cyber police @Dr.Wol

Yeah but i think that's more tort liability and not federal law

@angeryer that's an interesting question

If the fraud only causes financial damages, then I guess the government wouldn't step in

But if the fraud infringes on other people's rights, then I guess the government would step in

Maybe it's a case by case basis?

I'm not a lawyer but I wouldn't know how you would be able to fairly enforce a blanket law like that

But I guess consumer protection laws do that

So WTF do I know lmao

@Arch-Fiend I don't think "absolutionist" is the word you're looking for

I feel like companies (in general) have an incentive to put out a good product. The money you make from sales is less than the money you can lose via a lawsuit
