Freedom of speech is gone

Hard right means the Italian conservatives who embraced Mussolini and Fascism.

Francisco Franco - Conservapedia

While often said to be a fascist, and despite adopting certain elements of fascism during his rule, his ideology differed from fascism in several ways. Fascism has the revolutionary aim to transform a society, while Franco's rule was rather conservative and traditional. The main elements of his rule are said to be national conservatism, authoritarianism, anti-freemasonry, anti-Communism, a strong promotion of Roman Catholicism and support of the family. Some of his early supporters in the Falange were fascist, …

No, I asked you to explain what 'the right' means. Then I asked you to expand on it by also explaining to the group what 'the left' means.

From there I'll flatter your thoughts on conservatism and other isms.

Thanks!
 
Liberal censoring is wrong because, despite their false claim, what they are removing is mostly opinion while they claim to be going after “lies”
It’s a fact to state CDC revised its death count from Covid Solely.
It’s an opinion to comment ob the good nature of doing that revision yet both are often deleted.
It’s a fact to say the sky is dark at night. It’s a feeling or opinion to state that’s the most pleasant time of day. Libs muddy those two distinctions constantly

Nobody owes you platform for your speech. Maybe you should rent a hall or start a newspaper.
 
Trump wanted to do the same thing but he wasn't able to but his cheerleaders still cheered him on saying it needed done.
when did trumppush social media to ban people with dissenting opinions?

Sure they do because they are dependent upon public participation and invite us in to communicate. You fragile snowflakes want the communication to be solely what you want and there is the problem
One way streets of communication are going away even with your bitter clinging

They invite you in but they do require every user to agree to their terms before participation.

If you want to speak, go out on a street corner. There’s no terms of service there.

There is no term of service statement which states “we will peruse your statements to review if we like them or agree with them and if we don’t you and the post will be removed “
 
As an 84-year-old (and a twice Trump voter), I actually think that there is more freedom of the press than ever.

True, Big Tech is banning many people.

True, it has even banned a former President of the United States of America, while allowing the Taliban to spread its poison.

But until the Internet took off early in this century, there was no way for nobodies like me to blow off steam. (Print) newspapers published very few letters because of space and political bias.

Talk radio, too, only gave a few listeners a few minutes to vent and often cut off unpopular views.

But now there are various websites where one may vent, subject to moderators who act as editors.

And if one wants to, s/he is still free to hawk one's own print publication if one has the money and the time to do so.

Of course, I do not know how much longer this freedom will continue.

You can be banned from this site.
 
when did trumppush social media to ban people with dissenting opinions?

"Republicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservatives voices," Trump tweeted Wednesday morning. "We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen. We saw what they attempted to do, and failed, in 2016. We can't let a more sophisticated version of that.... happen again."

sounds like he’s doing the opposite…looking to potentially shit then down for censoring dissenting opinions. Not threatening to shut them down if they don’t
 

Democrats now control social media. Joe Biden has personally deputized social media to quell misinformation that he feels might lead to people dying.

However, consider this,
It was not that long ago when some social media platforms actively suppressed claims that COVID-19 originated in a Wuhan laboratory and spread after an accidental leak. It was not that long ago when government officials encouraged people not to buy masks to protect themselves from COVID-19. It was not that long ago experts said COVID-19 spread through physical surfaces or that we had to be a full 6 feet away from each other to socially distance.

In each of these cases, the Biden White House would have preferred to quash any debate about the truth of the virus. They want only one voice of expert opinion reaching people, and they want to ban anyone voicing a dissenting opinion from all platforms.

From a conservative point of view, God forbid, if a republican ever wins the White House again, should they be able to do the same? Should they say that any information on social media about abortion should be banned? Should they quell any attempt to defund the police on social media since after doing so crime has spiked and the death rates have dramatically increased?

All I can say is, America has been taken over by the fascism of the Left, and there are no checks and balances to stop them. In fact, without a free press anymore democracy is dead.
Oh, give it a freaking rest... bore, bore, bore... :banghead:

Sure there is. It says that they can remove your postings at any time for any reason or no reason whatsoever.

Don’t like it? Street corner.

This is one of the places where people come, and say whatever. They are few and far between,

Now you know how Democrats and independents feel the whole time Trump was in office we felt hopeless like our voice didn't matter at all. Trump was the most tyrannical President we ever had. And he attempted to exert his powers in every way he could, even attempting illegal measures.

President Biden did appeal two internet companies to take down conspiracy theories and lies off the internet. That is their right, you didn't order you just said it will be nice to clean it up. I thought it was way overdue. We are millions of people in this country who believe lies are the truth. That's disturbing we supposed to be a civilized educated nation. Reason and Truth should rule the day.
