if you owned and operated a private internet chatroom and someone in there was threatening other users and spouting conspiracy theories, would you invoke the first amendment the way you do now
The setting here is important
We are talking about a chatroom vs the right to speak freely on the largest social media platforms.
who was he harassing
the parents of sandy hook victims
That is like saying: can I use the firat amendment to be a jerk at a starbucks vs can I be perceived as a jerk in public?
The social media giants are essentially publiv territory with how they present themsevles and also becaude they essentially have a monopoly on social media.
I like to think of places like fb and twitter to be part of the public space. And I dont think they should make restrictions on free speech.
but when you force private platforms to accommodate people that they don’t want to accommodate, you’re restricting their freedom of speech. there’s a boundary here that is eluding you. like, why shouldn’t the chat room be able to ban problem users? should the government have intervened and forced the new yorker to host bannon after it decided to drop him?
I think it's time to stop clinging to such ridiculous groupings. Private, public. It's irrelevant in present day society in the tech industry.
did you see the Speer and Kershaw extracts
@Fred the Fish just declare major social media outlets public utilities
nationalize them
bing bang boom, problem solved
unless you're some kind of libertarian faggot
either that or public option
so like what china and russia do
it would be better for the government to provide a public social media platform than nationalizing all the competition
@Fred the Fish china and russia don't go far enough
I like what russia does with journalists but they could be doing more
Yes they will
this isn't going to end their business if that's what you mean
Most people who buy Nike's are black, and the people who are buying and burning the shoes... Are actually giving money to Nike
Most people in the "shoe game" are minorities
@agag not suggesting that
I'm sure the stock will bounce back and I don't think their sales will be negatively effected
more like wondering if they will feel compelled to end that contract with him (bc the backlash as pepsi did with some kardashian ad) or they will get away with it.
nike's reaction to people burning nike merchandise they already bought
I think it is stupid to burn already-owned merchandise. It makes more sense to just let it naturally wear and no longer purchase from them.
Yo, did I miss this happening? https://archive.fo/AfVxc
@agag I did read your extracts. They just seemed to identify '39 as the year support started waning which I wouldnt have drawn contention with. It was 36 that I did. I even stated as the war started gearing up it started plummeting
Interesting little blurb regardless
my bad
@agag hey man, what is your best argument against the argument from evil?
There is no Evil, change my mind.
There is
It's called Judaism
And the things it has created, such as cultural-marxism etc.
