How does a guy who makes his living via the First Amendment think free speech is a bad idea? and who would he have decide what's a lie and what isn't? Ultimately, if this becomes an issue, the government will decide, and then his free speech is threatened.
Why Free Speech?
Because 95% of so called Journalists are self admitted Democrats, Liberals, Progressives and / or Socialists.
Of the remaining 5%, four out of five are Liars.
That’s why.
“If we succumb and simply react to outside pressure, rather than straightforward principles we enforce (and evolve) impartially regardless of political viewpoints, we become a service that’s constructed by our personal views that can swing in any direction,” Dorsey tweeted earlier this week. That’s not us.”
The criteria should be legal/illegal not some vague “offensive” or “hate”. Just about every word that comes out of the LEFT’s mouth is offensive to me. Should I be hitting the abuse button every chance I get? Not if I believe in free speech.
This is more evidence that our education system has deteriorated into a threat to the founding principles of our nation. Too many young people really believe in curtailing speech that hurts people’s feelings or is “offensive”. They are unable to think through what it would mean to hand over power to limit freedom of speech.
Freedom of the press is ‘dangerously naive idea’ that leads to ‘amplification of lies,’
Sounds better?
They admit it. They plan to eliminate free speech totally. Mostly gone already.
Laura Hudson’s solution: Police speech on the web. Really? Typical liberal solution: make it illegal. Liberals and Conservatives respond so differently:
Don’t like a TV program’s content:
Conservative: change the channel
Liberal: pass a law to ban the content
Don’t want to bake a cake for a certain couple:
Conservative: find a bakery that will or bake your own
Liberal: pass a law that forces every bakery to bake anything for everyone
Don’t think kids should drink a 32oz soda:
Conservative: don’t buy 32oz sodas
Liberal: pass a law that bans 32 oz sodas
At every turn, Liberals want to restrict your freedom of choice and most Americans go right along with it. Stupid.
Good God!
Does this writer realize how stupid this is? Naive doesn't even get close.
Think about the kind of people who have come out the last few years attacking truly open and free speech.
Would you trust ANY single one of them to decide what kind of things you can see, hear and read? Nobody has the moral authority to decide that for me, and even if anyone did, it certainly wouldn’t be any one of THEM.
Fascists really, really despise freedom, don’t they? This is the the kind of crap you’d expect to read if you asked a bunch of random students in Maoist China back during “the cultural revolution” to critique America’s Bill of Rights.
You can still read this kind of garbage today, any day, by the moundful, on Chinese internet boards. Democrazy, they call it. And it’s taken over America. You think Civil War II isn’t coming? Where can I get a pair of those rose colored glasses?
We will protect you, peasants, from the truth.
The prime priority and goal for the cancerous libtard progressive left.....not even go into legitimate Nazi comparisons.......
The press is full of delusional idiots. When communists take over the first group of people they usually kill are the loudmouth agitators because they never shut up and become a complication. By eliminating them with prejudice actually buys the revolutionaries some credibility with the citizens who hate them with a passion.
