No bro literally go on facebook call a woman a dog, report back how long the ban takes

2020-11-15 21:19:59 UTC  

Call her anything.

2020-11-15 21:20:10 UTC  

Then make a fake female profile

2020-11-15 21:20:12 UTC  

Facebook isn't the government, though.

2020-11-15 21:20:13 UTC  

Ah, free speech meets free market. I like that one.

2020-11-15 21:20:45 UTC  

Go say whatever you want. See what happens, its because of the social climate, the bend the knee, its all gonna be gone soon trust.

2020-11-15 21:20:56 UTC  

Pick which one you don't want us to have. Until then, businesses will do what they like.

2020-11-15 21:21:08 UTC  

The same goes for rules of one's hearth. You can't just call someone's wife egregious things and feel like your protected to remain on the property.

2020-11-15 21:22:01 UTC  

Now if you were talking about facebook being a public space to express political opinions, I'd be more indifferent.

2020-11-15 21:22:10 UTC  

It's a long shot from your example though.

2020-11-15 21:22:25 UTC  

Facebook is a small example, of the biggest problem.

2020-11-15 21:22:26 UTC  

I believe freedom of speech gives us freedom of venue to exercise it. I'm booked Thursday but will be giving a lecture on it in your living room on Friday.

2020-11-15 21:23:05 UTC  

I think political opinion and expression should be protected.

2020-11-15 21:23:15 UTC  

I don't think personal discourse should be protected.

2020-11-15 21:23:19 UTC  

That's really the line for me.

2020-11-15 21:23:20 UTC  

It is.

2020-11-15 21:23:39 UTC  

Do you think it will if they are allowed to have govt officals calling for lists to be made

2020-11-15 21:23:40 UTC  

It isn't on large platforms like Facebook, that's his point.

2020-11-15 21:24:46 UTC  

Your right to swing your arms ends at my nose. Those businesses can trespass anyone they like. They don't need a reason. Feel free to withdraw your patronage, imo.

2020-11-15 21:25:27 UTC  

Many have tried, but they're controlled by conglomerates and practically have a functioning monopoly.

2020-11-15 21:25:42 UTC  

Maybe a cohort of customers get the reality they deserve?

2020-11-15 21:25:50 UTC  

Easier said than done, I'm afraid.

2020-11-15 21:25:52 UTC  

If they feel it's bad for business, how they see it, it's their right.

2020-11-15 21:26:32 UTC  

Just wait until the opposition infiltrates Parler. We'll see how that position holds up.

2020-11-15 21:26:49 UTC  

And they will

2020-11-15 21:26:52 UTC  

Ehh, debatable. We live in the internet era where social media is so ridiculously important to everyday living that it's practically become the public space for many.

2020-11-15 21:27:28 UTC  

That's why I am willing to compromise with protecting political expression, but allowing personal discourse to be moderated.

2020-11-15 21:27:28 UTC  

consume terror, according to Pasolini

2020-11-15 21:28:23 UTC  

Facebook isn't running out of lawsuit money any time soon. If they think they will, the people who run it can just shut down and cry themselves to sleep on top of their mountain of personal gains.

2020-11-15 21:28:47 UTC  

Facebook isnt the only issue

2020-11-15 21:28:49 UTC  

It's a reason why they're being taken directly to the senate.

2020-11-15 21:29:00 UTC  

And no lawsuit will protect you from new legislation.

2020-11-15 21:29:06 UTC  

Or redacted legislation.

2020-11-15 21:29:13 UTC  

They're going above lawsuits, have for some time.

2020-11-15 21:29:31 UTC  

It cuts both ways. People will be baking more wedding cakes, at least.

2020-11-15 21:30:08 UTC  

I'm against that as well, as that's forcing someone else to do something, not just tolerate something.

2020-11-15 21:31:12 UTC  

Facebook is in a unique position where it's the new public discourse.

2020-11-15 21:31:26 UTC  

Which is the only real exception I have.

2020-11-15 21:31:43 UTC  

Special pleading.

2020-11-15 21:31:49 UTC  

Not really.

2020-11-15 21:32:29 UTC  

I can't see not foisting the logic elsewhere.
