Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis To Sign Bill Banning Social Media ‘Deplatforming’

[busybee01]

Expressing opinions you don't like = being an asshole?

Sometimes. You’ve expressed opinions as to how you’d love to see a lot of people dead and hope for that.

That’s you being an asshole by expressing an opinion.

Communists/Socialists/Marxists have murdered MILLIONS. Of course I want them dead. You should too.

Expressing Marxist views is being an asshole, in my opinion. According to you, that's good enough for a ban.

It will happen to you eventually.

Wow, you have a very warped opinion of your own deplorable behavior.

You yourself said you were an asshole, now you’re whitewashing it. This is why we can’t have nice things. Wishing the deaths of other people is behavior that will get you kicked off platforms for good reason. It ruins the experience for others.

Users were banned from Facebook and Twitter for posting opposing opinions, not overwhelmingly universal opinions, like murder is bad.

I know Democrats understand this, they just don’t care because it is currently to their benefit.

And this is the point.

Facebook and Twitter can ban whatever they want because it's their property. That principle should apply EVERYWHERE!!!!

They can ban people on the basis of their conduct They cannot ban people for being paret of a group.

 

[kaz]

You don't care, your response to companies shutting down competition because they don't follow their rules.

No one has been shut down. That's a conceit you're spinning because you want big daddy government to spank FB. Pathetic.

Taking a social media company off the largest mobile network isn't shutting them down. Just wow.

I don't know if you're stupid or a liar. Those aren't mutually exclusive.

You really don't care about free markets. What a win this is for you. You crow about libertarianism while serving leftists. Win, win, win all day long for you. There is no problem! They shut down Parlor because and you're thrilled! No worries, none at all for you!

I just don't buy your bullshit rationalizations. You're a partisan stooge. You have no principles or consistent values. You're just angry because your troll in chief got banned. Too. fucking. bad.

You keep high fiving and slapping backs with Democrats while getting along with no one else and calling ... me ... partisan.

No wonder Faun likes you so much, you're a Democrat tool

Users were banned from Facebook and Twitter for posting opposing opinions, not overwhelmingly universal opinions, like murder is bad.

It’s up to the platform to decide what opinions are bad enough to warrant removal.

Such as COVID misinformation.

Even if you believe these companies should be afforded the protections provided by Section 230, they are violating those by not acting in “good faith”, which is a requirement of the law. Legally, ”good faith” is a defined as a sincere belief to deal fairly with others. Being partisan, which they CLEARLY are, is, by definition, not acting in good faith. They do not apply the same standards across the political spectrum. If they are going to violate Section 230, the protection should be removed. That would be a death nail and they know it.

They are not partisan. Liberals think that social media companies are not aggressive enough to taking down posts. That shows they are not partisan.

Social media companies spent years giving Trump and conservatives a pass for breaking their rules.

Listen - I realize that you see all of this as "gang warfare", but I don't. I don't give a shit who happens to be agreeing, or disagreeing, with me on a given issue. Unlike you, I don't change my values based on what my "team" is doing. In this case, your "team" has gone off the rails. And you've gone with them.

 

[busybee01]

republicans strike again. Now they are taking first amendment rights from social media.

They are regulating the internet. And violating the first amendment to do it. They are also violating section 230 of the communications decency act.

What happened to their screaming that business owners have the right to decide who they serve or do business with? That was a lie too.

They are showing that their hate for regulations was all a lie. They love regulating business just not in a responsible way.

Their beliefs are of convenience not real beliefs.

Ban Trump? Not so fast. Florida is about to pass a law to stop Facebook and Twitter from censoring politicians

Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis is likely to sign into law a bill that would stop Facebook, Twitter and YouTube from censoring politicians such as Donald Trump.

www.usatoday.com

I'm thinking youre a little confused how the 1st A works,,,

Nope. You are.

and yet you failed to explain why I'm wrong,,

the 1st is meant for the people not companies,,

The first amendment applies to government. Government cannot do anything to limit free speech. It does not apply to comanies. You have no free speech rights in regards to companies.

never said it did,,

this isnt a 1st A issue,,

Yes it is a 1st Amendment issue. Twitter and Facebook have 1st Amendment rights as well. In addition this is a illegal seizure of property. This law violates the Constitution and should be overturned.

what speech of theirs was restricted??

Their right to take down a poster who violates their terms of agreement. Their right to warn other users of questionable posts. Several companies have withdrawn their advertising because they do not want to be associated with the garbage Trump users post.

so they werent restricted from saying anything,, got it,,

Their right to police their platform is free speech.

free speech and the 1st A are two different things,,

and its not their speech thats being restricted,,

Yes it is. They have a right to remove posts which violate their terms of agreement. That is the same as speech. There is also illegal taking of property.

If you don't see it as gang warfare, then why are you so firmly entrenched on one side? Faun is an extremist leftist who hates anyone who disagrees with him on anything. Democrats have no tolerance for anyone who isn't a mind zombie Democrat. You know that after all your years of posting on the site. Yet this group of mind zombies LOVE you. And you don't get along with anyone else.

That you keep bringing up partisanship with your ass completely entrenched with Democrats in the Democrat party is just classic

public square" - another catch phrase for socialists.

The public square is real and dates back to greece and rome

 

[dblack]

If you don't see it as gang warfare, then why are you so firmly entrenched on one side?

I'm not. That's all in your mind. You seem to think that everyone who disagrees with you is collaborating, but that's not the case. You're paranoid and delusional. I can't help you with that.

 

[busybee01]

Always the excuse when government wants a cut.

No monopoly such as FascisTwat can exist without government collusion.

When the Monopoly acted in restraint of trade to crush Parler which harmed monopoly node Twitter, the federal goons refused to act, because the tech fascists operate as a defacto arm of government.

Everybody is conspiring against Trump. That is a broken record. Parler violated their terms of agreement. Parler should have followed Twitter and Facebook's example and set up their own network independent of Amazon. Amazon is not a monopoly. They are the largest seller due to the fact they have invested in making their website better. I buy a lot of movies online but there are several companies that Ilook at before I buy. If they were a monopoly, I would not be able to do that.

It's also a popular excuse for socialists, when they want government to encroach on business.

Democrats response constantly supporting you isn't in my mind, liar. It's in theirs. They clearly hear what I do. And what every other libertarian and most of the conservatives do.

This shit that you don' think we can see each other having the same argument with you is the dumbest think of all the stupid shit you try to peddle. That and that you think we can't see leftist extremists like Faun high fiving you and you slapping each other on the back.

It's just you, kaz! What a fucking liar

 

[Faun]

Stunning support for censorship
Only weak knee, weak willed insecure people need differing views removed and people banished. It’s endorsing discrimination. Extreme libbie pretzel twisting to justify amounts to shrieking children.

LOL - keep chirping.

It's not support for censorship. It's a rejection of state regulated media. The government has no business dictating to social media companies. Private companies have no obligation to host your political propaganda.

A real libertarian would actually sit back and ponder why Internet social media companies are able to silence Trump and shut down their competitor Parlor. Obviously free markets are not working.

Here's the thing you don't understand about libertarians while you pretend to be one. We actually believe in actually free markets. Not just the theory of them. If it's not working, that's a problem. I mean for us, not you since you're a fake libertarian. This is working for you since you get to claim to be libertarian while actually helping the left who you don't grasp is completely not libertarian.

Keep telling yourself that, as you follow your dear leader off a statist cliff.

LOL, a Democrat calling me a statist. That's classic

I call 'em as I see.

Like most Trumpsters, you're in denial. You've been sold a bill of goods and just can't bring yourself to admit it.

Fortunately you have the Democrat Party to show you the enlightened path, fascist. Like leftist companies policing the internet and shutting down anyone who defies them, like Parlor.

If Google hadn't shut down Parlor, you'd have an argument. And I was fine with Twitter booting Trump and Parlor picking him up for all the reasons you claim you support.

But when Google said I got this, Twitter, and shut down Parlor, it was clear it was NOT a free market. And you didn't care because you're a racist and a socialist who talks about free markets with a glass of sherry and some Weiner appetizers

LOL

How do you get so much wrong in a single post??

Google didn't shut down Parler, Amazon did.

Parler never picked up Trump as a member of their service.

It's Parler, not Parlor.

And you still haven't shown Amazon is "leftist."

You really have no consistent principles at all. If the political situation were different, if the tables were turned and liberals were trying to use the same justifications for state intervention that you are, you'd be howling. Rank, wretched hypocrisy.

I have never wavered from the ideals of Roth, Rand, Browne, et al.

You have embraced full fascism.

Bake the cake!

Seig Heil, Herr Black

You are the Nazi and you are the one who has a Fuerher.

It's standard politics - they proactively accuse someone else of doing exactly what they ARE doing. These are people who used to pretend they favored a free market.

dblack high fiving and slapping backs with another extremist leftist and thinking no one sees that, LOL.

You kiss ass with the who's who of the hate filled left

And you know what happens when you yell at your wife

But here, you can be the man of the house, and insult others to your hearts content

How sad for you

 

[progressive hunter]

Your tangent about “I want state control” has been defeated and is something you made up

This is a lie.

The Florida measure seeking to do exactly that is proof this is a lie.

I do not advocate state control and never so stated. Like all defeated Libs You assigned your characterization on me and presented it as an admission that I made. Fake.
What I am an advocate for is the freedom of each reader to read the presentations and decide for themselves as to the validity. You advocate and endorse Facebook making that decision in advance and censoring even the mere presentation of the printed or spoken word
Why do you all fear other opinions and experiences So Much that you can’t allow them to even see the light of day? Diversity-remember?
Also, try to justify arbitrary political expression as “lies” is just as worn out as cries of “racism” every time things are not going like you feel they should

Facebook and Twitter have a right to control what is said on their property. They are not censoring anyone because they are not a government entity. You talk freedom but you have no clue what it is. Twitter and Facebook have rights as well. If readers don't like what they are doing then readerstop using these platforms.s wil l

supporting free speech is about speech you disagree with,,

They are not government entities so free speech is not a issue. They have a right to police their own forum.

free speech and the 1st A are two different things,, which explains your confusion,,
