Democrats Looking To Ramp Up The Fascism

[Spurtacular]

Oh, the tweet was all you read.

I decided not to read a Daily Beast article on a whim warrants that reaction for you?

You really are desperate these days, sociopath chump.

[Pavlov]

I decided not to read

Yep. I already said that.

[Spurtacular]

Yep. I already said that.

And this is an imaginary W for you, sociopath chump.

It's not about giving govt. control. But when outlets that are getting higher ratings than mainstream outlets are censored over multiple platforms in one fell swoop, then that's not acceptable given the people's public investment in these platforms. This is absolutely what fascism looks like.

what's your take on net neutrality?

there's no internet without DARPA ,i.e., without massive public (i.e., government) spending.

I'm less sure that's true for FB, Twitter and Youtube.

If it was 20 years ago we'd be talking about Yahoo, AOL and Netscape.

[Pavlov]

And this is an imaginary W for you, sociopath chump.

Man, you obsessed with keeping score.

[Spurtacular]

Man, you obsessed with keeping score.

It's your play, sociopath chump.

[Pavlov]

It's your play, sociopath chump.

You're the one who brings it up without fail, derp.

[Chris]

[Pavlov]

Actually you want the NFL players to be forced to perform an act of patriotism or be punished.

I don't.

[Spurtacular]

You're the one who brings it up without fail, derp.

Being vague.
Ignoring that it's his play.
Derpin' like his tranny man
Today's sociopath chump

[Spurtacular]

Lib s.

[Pavlov]

Being vague.

You are the one who incessantly brings up scores and Ls and Ws.

Do you understand now?

[Winehole23]

at least they're coming out and saying they want the government to prevent the free market from treating conservatives unfairly.

[Winehole23]

affirmative action for persecuted Republicans,edgy social media trolls and oppressed alt-right LARPers, tbh

That you think the media industry is "the free market"

[Chris]

Ban all the things.

[Winehole23]

fine, private business concerns.

I'll readily concede no free market exists, now or ever. There's always a legal, cultural and military context that enforces agreements/adjustments.

"Free market" is sort of a euphemism unless you need the phrase to gag an annoying ideologue.

[Winehole23]

like hate speech

[Chris]

"an intention to police harmful speech under a definition that is nebulous and likely to be applied selectively."

Exactly.

[Spurtacular]

Very easy for liberals to hide behind TOS, which can broadly define figurative language as bad or even state that certain terms are offensive, even though they're only going to selectively enforce the use of such terms.

Meanwhile, actual racism and "bullying" by liberal factions goes unchecked:

yeah, I think we both basically agree with the never-Trumper who posted this Reason article

The wheels were set in motion a week ago.

well, if the companies don't do it maybe Congress will.

recall that political majorities are evanescent...
