Zone1 A question for my leftist brothers and sisters regarding FBI censorship

[billiebob]

The FBI purportedly deploys an army of HUNDREDS of agents to monitor and censor speech on Google, YouTube, Facebook, etc.

I routinely perform searches on Google on politically sensitive topics and often come away with nothing although I KNOW the information was out there previously. The government is scrubbing information that it doesn't want citizens to see. Do you support this practice?

Do you have anything beyond supposition and imagination to support your assertion?

 

[Godboy]

Do you think it’s the role of the FBI to censor what people say on social media?

No, of course not. I have big issues with the FBI doing that.

 

[Godboy]

Do you have anything beyond supposition and imagination to support your assertion?

Wait, are you trying to deny that the FBI has been contacting social media companies and requesting that they take down posts and accounts?

Proverbs 26:4-5​

​

English Standard Version​

​

​

4 Answer not a fool according to his folly,
lest you be like him yourself.
5 Answer a fool according to his folly,
lest he be wise in his own eyes.

Who is the fool here? You adopted a black and white stance to a complex issue (which you fail to grasp the complexity of) and didn’t think about the implications of that stance.

My friend, you have been foolish.

Do you have anything beyond supposition and imagination to support your assertion?

I suggest you watch congressional hearings on YouTube.

 

[Marener]

No, of course not. I have big issues with the FBI doing that.

Are there any circumstances you think they should?

Most people ignore the fact that YouTube had to stop deleting conservative posts after Congress riped their asses for doing so.

Oh Jesus fucking Christ. Please tell me you know who im talking about. You arent familiar with FBI agent Thibault?!!!!

 

[Godboy]

Are there any circumstances you think they should?

No, not one. Monitoring Twitter isnt the job of the FBI.

Do you have anything beyond supposition and imagination to support your assertion?

Go do your research. This is common knowledge.

 

[Marener]

No, not one. Monitoring Twitter isnt the job of the FBI.

So when ISIS was using social media to recruit terrorists, not their job?

Now youre talking about monitoring a person or group. That isnt the same as monitoring Twitter. They were scouring all of Twitter and making requests to take down regular peoples posts. They made 250,000 requests.

 

[BULLDOG]

Elon Musk demonstrated that this is a fact.

That's not really an answer to my question, is it?
So does that mean you will continue to believe all batshit crazy conspiracy theories from now on?

Distinction without a difference. It’s still monitoring social media and taking down certain content. Whether it’s monitoring social media for terrorist content, or illegal election interference.

How many of those takedown requests were actually Americans?

Elon Musk answered all your questions and your brain has already exploded.

Link? I don't remember asking Elon Musk if he was going to continue believing batshit crazy conspiracy theories from now on, but if you have a link to him answering me, I would love to see it.

He's got the data, schmuck.

He's got the data, schmuck.

Then when will he present it?
