Everyone needs to read Coddling of the American mind

2018-12-16 10:01:46 UTC  

truth is what the popular people believe

2018-12-16 10:02:21 UTC  

Depends on what you mean by truth

2018-12-16 10:02:43 UTC  

peoples personal feel of reality

2018-12-16 10:02:48 UTC  

If you mean objective truth, then that's just wrong

2018-12-16 10:02:50 UTC  

Everyone needs to read the progressive era

If you mean Metaphorical "True Enough'", sure

2018-12-16 10:03:12 UTC  

summerize it for me

2018-12-16 10:04:44 UTC  

important take away: big tech wants to be regulated, and you shouldn't want them to be.

2018-12-16 10:05:20 UTC  

Why would they want to be regulated

2018-12-16 10:05:27 UTC  

cuz they can afford it

2018-12-16 10:05:54 UTC  

I can agree with that,

They'll just pay off/loophole the system, but its keeping new businesses out who can't compete with those regulations

2018-12-16 10:06:30 UTC  

summary: only government can create monopolies

2018-12-16 10:07:32 UTC  

The question is can you even regulate them constitutionally

2018-12-16 10:07:39 UTC  

ofc

2018-12-16 10:07:44 UTC  

you just change the constitution

2018-12-16 10:07:55 UTC  

It ain’t that simple

2018-12-16 10:08:04 UTC  

yeah it is 😉

2018-12-16 10:08:40 UTC  

People wouldn’t want to change the 1st amendment just to regulate big tech when there are free market solutions

2018-12-16 10:08:53 UTC  

1A has nothing to do with big tech

2018-12-16 10:08:55 UTC  

postmodernism fixed the constitution problem, there are no facts, only interpretations.

2018-12-16 10:09:03 UTC  

^

2018-12-16 10:09:12 UTC  

facts don't matter, only "personal truth"

2018-12-16 10:09:21 UTC  

I see things MY way, hence i'm correct

2018-12-16 10:10:03 UTC  

The whole reason they’re allowed to ban people indiscriminately is 1A protection

2018-12-16 10:10:57 UTC  

They aren’t a government entity so the government can’t tell them what content they must allow

2018-12-16 10:10:58 UTC  

1A applies only to the government, not non-government entities (such as companies/corporations/people)

2018-12-16 10:11:19 UTC  

They can ban people indiscriminately because their servers are their property, hippity hoppity.

2018-12-16 10:11:47 UTC  

social media isn't considered a public platform by law

2018-12-16 10:12:04 UTC  

Exactly my point

2018-12-16 10:12:26 UTC  

so how does that negatively impact companies?

2018-12-16 10:12:52 UTC  

I never said it did

2018-12-16 10:13:07 UTC  

Seize the means of discussion! Only communism can protect us from the commies! <:commie:463087263153258506>

2018-12-16 10:13:11 UTC  

so why would they wanna change the constitution?

2018-12-16 10:13:22 UTC  

they have it the way they want it

2018-12-16 10:14:07 UTC  

I never said they did, @halfthink did

2018-12-16 10:14:30 UTC  

not really

2018-12-16 10:14:34 UTC  

constitution is a spook

2018-12-16 10:14:42 UTC  

I think they’re perfectly fine with the way things are currently
