@busillis Shouldn't I have a say in how much I put my own life at risk?

Uh, people seem to respond to that kind of crazy. He knows what he's doing.

At risk?

No. You're confused. Courts consistently provide remedy to the injured when they strike down laws.

Due to you giving me COVID.

> @busillis Shouldn't I have a say in how much I put my own life at risk?
@Vegas.James Not in others'.

According to a source the cat was already out of the bag on the covid in the US in early October 2019

@Zuluzeit That depends on your caste. We will let you know if you get a say or not. 😉

I knew in early December. I'm just some dude. They knew earlier.

@busillis No, on that point I disagree. All that will mean is a different group gets to control and manipulate the information. You'd be trading anti-christian liberal thought police who dont want you to say how you really feel about gender, for anti-paranormal materialist thought police who don't want you to say what your really want to do with someone of a given gender. Remember when it was Denis Leary and Prince who were getting moderate? The change is good, we just need to finish the job. Repeal Section 230, so that you choose to (a) moderate and be accountable for how you moderate, (b) not moderate and not be responsible. That's how it was back in the day. To stay out of being liable, platform providers stayed out of the conversation. They also need to go back to, you run your own message board. If someone else doesn't like it, they can start their own. It's LibtardTube haveing the monopoly on webhosted videos that is the problem. The sad part is, it doesn't have to be this way. Simple Machines Form can be set up in 5 minutes, need to post videos like YouTube, use Wedge (a fork of Simple Machines created following a developer dispute between SMF and Nao). If everyone was thier own YouTube, their own Twitter, their own Facebook ... it wouldn't matter what Suckerbuer, Jack Dumbsh!t, or anyone else wanted to sensor.

It's about principle because Trump lost. Trump wins and you might be someone who would still argue that it is unconstitutional, but most wouldn't that are currently saying it is.

If there is a risk it was already at risk... With no publicity.

@busillis Dolores Cahill was saying that months ago but she was outcast

Agreed

So you choose or do you like being told how to handle your safety?

@Autumn_Katrina isn’t that what this whole ‘streaming moment’ is?

You have to use those instances to enforce your principles though.

@Autumn_Katrina movement nor moment

@Autumn_Katrina But it's also a business decision. They cater to the customers they want. People don't like deranged, defective, disturbing diatribes. It's not about moral imperative or even free speech. It's about retaining customers.

Idk...

@Phil I'm about 11 minutes behind, this is in refernece to your message to @Corndog --- what exactly is Texas trying to argue is a remedy in the suit, because I think I have an idea where they do have standing....it may surprise you, but I need to know exactly what they filed if you know the details...

I need to go find something to eat before it's too late...

Too late?

Or they cater content to what their advertisers find to be acceptable. Why did YouTube get rid of Alex Jones?

Their advertisers are advertising to someone.

Or others... If you like your cookie thoughts go to another platform.

Yes, that's the idea.

Alex Jones had a fairly big following on YouTube. He was 86ed.

@Phil, you just advanced to level 8!

Point being for youtube it was more ideological, then business related.

My ideology is irrelevant to it. They know how their market works.

Oh, you editing bastard.

I would like to think that I would be consistent, too... I think it is up to PA to decide for themselves. The legislature passed a bi-partisan bill that they believed could stand up to scrutiny by the PA SC. PA voters cast their ballots in good faith using a method that was used in the Primary and nobody objected. I think it is fair to assume that were no excuse mail-in voting were not available, those same voters would have gone to the polls. It is not their fault that no one challenged Act 77 pre-election. As such, I think they should let the election stand and revisit the constitutionality post-election. This is how they handled voter suppression in the South.

I suppose but why not just shut down the advertising rather than completely banning him?

At the very least it sets a bad precedent.

Not sure. Must have had a reason.

@markmen I'm lagging severly (abotu 8 minutes), and the owener of thsi discord has disabled the ability to quote messages. I think we have confused each other. What was your reply in reference to?

@TaLoN132 The problem is we cannot assess accurately which elections are legitimate and which are not. We only know that we noticed this time.

I will say the guy likely broke youtube terms of service quite frequently...
