They are not intrested in stopping terrorisim at all. Just keep enough of a lid on it so the the natives don't revolt. Look at now much power they have managed to grab, how many freedoms we have given up in the name of safety.

Im not disagreeing, I just find the honeypot excuse just... full of holes

I mean back then when you never heard of conservatives being censored on twitter or FB.

Or wernt aware of it.

And id say, because they never felt the need to

Well depending on the target the honeypot argument could still hold. You have to gather data before you use it. Never forget the Great Candid Shilling

Yeah.... It was alot more believable then

Honeypots are meant to ***catch*** people, and nobody is getting caught. They're still operating unimpeded.

But if it were a honeypot, then why leave those up? Theres also neo nazi groups still active on FB

Plenty of raping, stabbing, shooting, killing, etc.

Algorithms are honestly still shitter tier

Is the main problem

I think these companies are actually way less competent than people seem to want to imply

Well it dosent help that they have a very.... one sided view of whats acceptable

Like who watches the watchman

I had this argument with someone, he said that have an AI in charge of everything

But who codes the thing?

Well and they seem primarily concerned with people who have large viewerships

How do we know the AI isnt just the guy's will made manifest?

To the point where a lot of smalltime users are not punished for abusive behavior

Which may also be why extremist groups fly under the radar

So the implication being that the threshold of whats considered acceptable is higher the smaller your community is?

Which if you are free speech absolutist, you either punish everyone, or no one

Also,m they could rely on user reports like they do..

But theres also the bias there. People get banned for reposting anti white comments with white replaces.

They aren't absolutists though. This should be clear by now

There should be no doubt that the people in control of public discourse are anything but that

I mean the reason why people belive in anonymity is because theres nothing to gurantee that what happens online wont carry over to real life.

For all the Canadians: Mad Max just announced the Canadian version of the Libertarian party http://www.peoplespartyofcanada.ca

You mean, as opposed to the Canadian Libertarian Party?

Seems like more of an actual right-wing party instead of the four or five flavors of socialism the Canadians usually have to choose from

Social democracy*

And yeah, dude wants to add private medical coverage and help deregulate the failing govt funded system

No mention of self defense laws that I could find though, which is a huge issue legally

I'm not a fan of the name because it sounds communist

But I agree with his platform

I think he could do well in the prairies and QC

Canada has "No right of self defense" as it's default legal foundation doesn't it?

Basically

It's actually the worst part

I didn't know Canada actually had a libertarian party lmao
