my english sucks anyway
It's been fine minus spelling decentralized. And really it was only the y in place of an i. Which is a pretty easy mistake to make
But yeah, I can see this possibly expanding Free Speech beyond it's limits, which could be interesting
Combined with supreme court rulings against limiting hate speech... yeah...
Although this also seems to establish a right to be heard, which is not part of the right to free speech.
All in all though, it'll be fun to watch a chaotic backfire at the expense of purveyors of chaos.
I don't know what I want more. For Trump (and all other politicians) to not be allowed to block people and trolls just spamming the crap out of the Democrats or for the ruling to be thrown out and Dems can't use Trumps Twitter as a springboard.
I mean, yeah. They've created a hillarious trap of high expectations for themselves.
The winning move was to not play.
They don't know how to win.
@Timcast this is also pretty interesting https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/may/24/irish-anti-abortion-campaigners-dodge-google-ad-ban
Putting those adds into mobile games is an ingenious move lol
"Kiloo, the Danish developer behind the popular Subway Surfers mobile game, said it was baffled by how Irish players were seeing anti-abortion adverts and insisted: “In no way do we want anything political like this in our game.”
Shows that even the game devs have no real influence what adds show in their games
Its all automated targeting done by add bots
It ends pretty ominously
"Anti-abortion groups claim Google’s decision to unilaterally ban all adverts relating to the Irish referendum shows “direct foreign interference in a referendum campaign” but Dwyer said the company had set a global precedent, which it would now come under pressure to replicate in future elections around the world. “It shouldn’t be these companies that are self-regulating, it should be our government that is setting the rules that they then have to follow.”
Bearing's YouTube channel has been terminated, it seems
🤣
Pathetic, really
She's bitching about getting blocked on Twatter
Though if Trump is an exemption to "muh free speech is being curbed" then all public servants are to follow suit
Or it's a double standard and singling one person out
It's basically setting a precedent that people can sue public servants for blocking over god damn social media. Because none of these morons can just log off and still see the tweet
I like Styxhexenhammer's argument that this decision can basically be interpreted as 'it's illegal for Twitter to shadowban or even at all ban people from using Twitter'
I'd like your opinions on a quora answer that claims conservatives are the reason so many people are socialist.
https://www.quora.com/Why-is-socialism-appealing-to-many-young-Americans/answer/Chris-Joosse
Or more specifically, right-wingers
Hmm...
This IS a good idea
I take my stances back on the topic of the public forum thing
His claim: "omg, look at all the shit that happened with the conservatives free market in the US! We should be more socialist like the nordic countries 'You’re not inhibited from looking around, from noticing that it’s not like this in other places (like, say, Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, etc)'"
....places with freer markets so their people can afford to pay for their safety nets.
apparently he didn't listen when those countries said "hey, stop calling use socialist. we are not"
It's stupid. Scandinavian countries are not Socialist
I fucking live here
he also didn't account for the fact that the US is paying for the military budget of Europe,
And that those "succesful" european countries have less than 1% of the US population
Which countries?
France? Germany? The UK?
Scandinavian countries
