or calling you racist or some other cist to scare you into snapping in line
Deplatforming will definitely lead to violence
i think it will depend on how bad it gets before it calms down
Intersectionality is destroying the left gradually though, tons of white female SJWs I know are starting to revolt slightly
while i dont agree with what happened to Jones
i dont reeally want to go punch anyone over it
they've already destroyed many comedians or otherwise forced them into hiding.
some comedians were smart enough to see what was coming and just stopped working.
so tell me this, which person being deplatformed would push you into the breach locked and loaded
i am not so sure i have anyone i give that much of a shit about to be honest lol
Same
I gave up on musicians speaking out about issues
The left seems to be following the science of cult influence/compliance to a T.
Everyone's either a pussy or a radical left idiot themselves
well sure, they wrote the book dev
so they know whats on every page already
Like, when I immediately think of rock bands who speak out about stuff, I think of the Sex Pistols, Flobots and Rage Against The Machine
the problem with deplatforming of the right, is no one really gives enough about whats happening over there to really do anything about it. i cant say i really agree with the craziest of stuff, so do i want to go fight over it,... not really... which in the end is already a loss
Whelp, it's official, people are getting fired for ok signs.
the deplatforming wave is going to presage legislation regulating speech content. that's definitely a red line for me.
I'm willing to give up a platform when it crosses a line for me. I think I told Tim in here that I quit Patreon completely after it banned Faith Goldy.
Sex Pistols are relics and Johnny Rotten has become tame and out-of-touch, Flobots are relatively chill but have no real audience, and Rage are socialists who helped fund a south american revolutionary group or something
the biggest problem with an "internet bill of rights"
is that it will be called that
but thats not what will likely be in the bill
and everyone will just read the title and be like... sure why not
Yeah Zach De La Rocha made donations to the Zapatista Army of National Liberation, who are a socialist revolt in the south of Mexico
but in there will be the real censorship they have been trying to enact all along
and everyone will have just fell for it
every potential legislative fix can easily go completely wrong.
but the status quo is also pretty fucking awful.
As long as we can create alternative platforms with no SJW influence we have an out that'll head off violence.
i don't think it's only about having echo chamber nobody cares about :^)
man i just got a picture in my heads of the DSA siexing Twitter and claiming they were siezing the means of production in the process lol
lol
It's about not having an echo chamber at all.
maybe the 'blue wave' doesn't happen, the SJWs tucker themselves out, and everything returns to some semblance of normalcy.
but maybe the democrats take congress, impeach drumpf, and go completely balls-to-the-wall on corporate censorship.
everything is a gamble.
It's ultimately the platform rules that make it an echo chamber or not.
to a degree, but the voices on the platform also do the esecho themselv
echo themselves
