Constitutional Rights and freedoms lost or diluted

[Thevolunteerwino]

Freedom of the press. - In todays world the press is monopolized by only a few entities.

Any person on Earth can start an online publication and immediately have distribution to nearly every other person on The Planet.

We have more press options today than at any other time in human history.

It's true that it's mostly used for porn. But, that's Press Freedom too.

Well, unless Google decides that they don't like what you're saying, and prevents anyone from finding your publication or knowing about it. And unless all of the places you would advertise your online publication to let people know about it ban it from sight.

Isnt the government at that point by its inaction alone a failure to protect my right and in essence as you stated not respecting my right to free speech?

No, not at all. The government doesn't have to support or facilitate your right to free speech. They merely have to refrain from actively preventing your speech.

Support and facilitate? No. Protect? Yes. You act like the government has no more legal obligations than to just stand back and do nothing.

Free speech. - Industrial Corporate Monoplies have decided on a grand scale what can and cant be said in a public domain. You no longer have free speech

Right to bear arms. - This was originally written so the American people would always have a military means to take back their govt. If it got out of hand Now your govt tells you what type of guns you can have. Your right to bear arms is being diluted every day

Freedom of the press. - In todays world the press is monopolized by only a few entities. Suprisingly all with monetary ties to govt. and any new press that goes against the grain is labled fake and removed. You do not have freedom of the press.

Right to home privacy against illegal search. Nowdays they can use spy technology inside your home without securing a warrent based upon court approved probable cause. NSA post 911. You do not have a right to privacy from home invasion. Not to mention what will happen if the military gets involved with contact tracing and vaccines

Freedom of religion. This is an easy one in so many areas. If you look at it legally the govt has mandated it has to be a religion that was well established before a certain date or it is invalid as a religion. (Cant remember the date) And even then its iffy. Like. can i gather a congregation together during lockdowns even of we believe we can and can i refuse vaccinating myself upon my religous belief. Also as a religion. You must file your religion with an IRS form under the govt. Your freedom of religion is mandated. Not eber really seperated from the state as it answers to the greater power the IRS. And its individual freedoms are subject to the current govt approval.

Would anyone like to add to this list? Im sure we have lost the entire constitution line by line in various ways especially in the last 20 years since 911 and homeland security which mandated a removal of our rights based on the fear of constant terrorist attacks on American soil which never manifested themselves yet the freedoms remain forever lost.
Anyone add to this list of constitutional rights and freedoms lost?

Nonsense. You have every right to say what you wish via your own forum.

Its analogous to say, the free press. Someone with a printing press can disseminate their views more rapidly than you can. Someone with a printing press and a wide, self sustaining distribution network (like a major paper) has an even greater capacity to disseminate their views.

However, neither scenario infringes on YOUR right to free speech. You can say what you wish, print your own paper, pass out pamphets, whatever you like. Your rights aren't defined by the capabilities of someone else. But instead, by what you can do.

Similarly, Facebook has has built a larger distribution network than you have. That doesn't infringe your right to free speech in the slightest. You can still create your own website and say whatever you wish.

Your 1st amendment rights have nothing to do with Facebook. If you want to know who the 1st amendment limits, look no farther than the 1st word in the 1st amendment.

I can not create my own website and say whatever i want. I would be put in the deep web. Or worse. Removed entirely from the web. And my rights do have to do with facebook. Youtube etc. Those platforms that obtain favor from the higher ups can be seen publicly amongst the masses while others and their platforms are suppressed. These are not chosen by the masses but by the powerful monopolistic controlers of the internet. It happens. On a globalized scale. There is mass inequality among the voice of the public and the press. If you cant see it. You are most likely just a follower of mass media. But thats ok. You just cant see the oppression of public opinion happening on a grand scale

Why would your website be removed? And who would remove it?

And your 'monopolistic internet' argument doesn't work. You can go to literally millions of websites. As can anyone else who jumps online in this country. Millions of choices is not a 'monopoly'.

And there has always been inequality in the volume of the voice between someone with a distribution network that they have built and someone without. It still has nothing to do with your rights. Your rights....are freedom from government interference.

Again, read the bill of rights. Facebook isn't mentioned. Congress is.

I do so enjoy listening to "Government should dictate EVERYTHING!" leftists suddenly start spouting off about limited government when it suddenly suits their narrative (read: bullshit lies).
