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 someone without one. 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.
