Freedom of speech and protest

[basilio]

It was always about the change and he indeed brought the most.

Indeed he has.. He has turned lying into an art form to the point that 10's of millions of people believe the most insane nonsense just because he says it. No evidence required. The latest most poisonous example is his insistence that he won the last election and it was stolen from him.

In any case the Fat Lady hasn't started to sing yet. Seems like the 6th of January stll into the Capitol was just the warm up to the real deal Moxjo. But given your close following of all the various sites that spread this stuff you'd be on top of it.

Well it seems 1984 came earlier than I thought it would.

I hope everyone has been earning their social credit points.

The new corporate authoritarian liberal-left monoculture is going to be absolutely ruthless -- and in 12 days it is merging with the state.
This only the beginning.

What a load of crap.
Suppose we need a fascist government to stop them. I am sick of these conspiracy theories when we see the reality happen in front of us and these sheep just obey.
Right wing thugs with vans fill of Molotov cocktails, policeman killed, politicians shot in the head, threatened.
Just shut up. Have enough of this extremists crap Hang around with your mates on some other website.

Ronald Reagan would be disgusted

I don't agree with you - quick shut me up. Typical of the left.

Just ignore him, it is easier, nuttiers are everywhere, including presidents.

Just ignore him

That would be nice.

The topic is "Freedom of Speech."
The President told his supporters to go to the Capitol building after months fomenting their anger with a cascade of lies.
This is not about moral outrage but, instead, is the culmination of a relentless attack on the bastions of democracy that ultimately led to the killing of a person who was trying to break into the barricaded House of Representatives.
Find a precedent if you can!

Well you could go back to the 1960's and the shooting of demonstrating students, just saying, it does fit in the free speech thread.

Freedom is never more than one generation from extinction. It must be fought for and defended by each generation. Ronald Reagan.

I am not going to stand by anymore.

When he is gone it will be over. Both sides will continue to hate one another though. I post videos from across Twitter of things that actually happen. You have been posting a bunch of sht mixed with truths for the last 4 years.
Continually....

 

[satanoperca]

That would be nice.

Our freedoms allow that.

 

[sptrawler]

Freedom is being allowed to hear the uncensored version of what someone has to say, then making your own mind up on what it means.
Freedom isn't parroting, what the media decides to tell you was said, that is being a Muppet.
Way too much of that happening on all fronts at the moment, but as Joh said, you have to feed the chooks.
Just my opinion

 

[sptrawler]

Like I said a while ago, Boris Johnson next, then Morrison will be in the cross hairs, it is so predictable IMO.

That really worked well in America.
One person's freedom led to other peoples deaths, all in the name of freedom.
Not my opinion.

You might want to make the effort to find out a little bit about a Oliver Wendall Holmes. He's a fella with an 'opinion' a lot more thought out and valid in the circumstances than yours...

Babbitt died, shot in the neck, a few days back with a firm belief that satan worshiping child rapists are about to be put in charge of Government of her country.
'the media told her so'....And was led to riot becuase of it (see below). And she drank deep at the font of Murdoch's Fox disinformation outlet.
And then there's 'muppets' like me who also get information from 'the media' and experts and books And then look for counter arguments, who for what ever reason arn't delusional 'bustard arse' pool cleaners.

"
"Shouting fire in a crowded theater" is a popular analogy for speech or actions made for the principal purpose of creating panic. The phrase is a paraphrasing of Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.'s opinion in the United States Supreme Court case Schenck v. United States in 1919, which held that the defendant's speech in opposition to the draft during World War I was not protected free speech under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. The case was later partially overturned by Brandenburg v. Ohio in 1969, which limited the scope of banned speech to that which would be directed to and likely to incite imminent lawless action (e.g. a riot).[1]

The paraphrasing differs from Holmes's original wording in that it typically does not include the word falsely, while also adding the word "crowded" to describe the theatre.[2] The original wording used in Holmes's opinion ("falsely shouting fire in a theatre and causing a panic") highlights that speech that is dangerous and false is not protected, as opposed to speech that is dangerous but also true."


just his Opinion?

 

[DB008]

Twitter has now banned Trump (his personal account) and a few others.

Facebook has also banned Trump

Apple and Google have both taken down Parler in the last 24 hours. Parler is also hosted on AWS, only a matter of time before Parler gets the boot.

Free speech, not in the USA.

Big tech is now telling you what to think.

More pictures of Hunter Biden have also been leaked - and it involves underage children. Disgusting. That pedofile should be locked up - but l'm sure big tech will try to sweep it all under the carpet.

 

[The Triangle]

USA never had 'free' speech. It has always been under control of the localized outrage mob where you have to talk and think like the mainstream or else you're labeled and treated like a leper - always has been always will be that way.

Good series of tweets by Navalny about the topic of trumps twitter and freedom of speech.
