I Fear For Justice Thomas’ Life

15. Earlier, some moron attempted to shield the Fascists, with this:

“There’s thousands of places where people can speak on the internet, this place among them.

I dare you to find a sector where there’s more competition.”



Let’s check:

The venues at issue serve some 3 billion people; Google search engine owns some 90% of the market, and is beyond competition.

"Similar to utilities, today’s dominant digital platforms derive much of their value from network size," writes Thomas. "The Internet, of course, is a network. But these digital platforms are networks within that network. The Facebook suite of apps is valuable largely because 3 billion people use it. Google search—at 90% of the market share—is valuable relative to other search engines because more people use it, creating data that Google’s algorithm uses to refine and improve search results. These network effects entrench these companies. Ordinarily, the astronomical profit margins of these platforms—last year, Google brought in $182.5 billion total, $40.3 billion in net income—would induce new entrants into the market.

That these companies have no comparable competitors highlights that the industries may have substantial barriers to entry."

He says that gives companies with only a few principal players, Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, for example, and Larry Page and Sergey Brin at Google, for another--both examples Thomas cites--"enormous control over speech."



"if the aim is to ensure that speech is not smothered, then the more glaring concern must perforce be the dominant digital platforms themselves. As Twitter made clear, the right to cut off speech lies most powerfully in the hands of private digital platforms."



Big Tech begins to resemble what Lord Acton stated:
Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
 
The Left has been known to stop at nothing.


1.While the Supreme Court as a whole embarrassed itself in refusing to confront the theft of the election, the clear refusal by some swing states, Pennsylvania in particular, to observe the mandates of the US Constitution, the most courageous and conservative, the most brilliant of Justices, Clarence Thomas called out the injustice.
This week he did more, putting his life on the line in confronting the cash cows of the internet. Corrupt individuals will, I fear, not give up their $billions, their control of the dissemination of information without a fight. A bloody fight.



2. Justice Thomas is an originalist, a textualist, and a believer in our God-granted unalienable rights, the single most prominent one being free speech. Thomas called out the control by big tech, and the oligarchs allied with the Democrats/Progressives who have stolen our freedom.

“ On Monday, Justice Clarence Thomas announced that the Supreme Court soon will have to put an end to Big Tech tyranny. Amen. If the high court fails to act, it could mean the end of free speech in the 21st century and the shriveling of our constitutional rights to mere “paper rights” — still there on paper but functionally hollowed out.”
Justice Thomas shows how we can end Big Tech censorship for good



3. Just three unelected power mad Leftists….Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, and Jack Dorsey deserves dishonorable mention, control Facebook and Google…..and have the power to disappear every opposing voice in the United States. Even the Commander in Chief.

Justice Thomas correctly claims that the Supreme Court must do what the spineless Republicans didn’t do….reign in this unaccountable tyranny.



4. The totalitarians and their Libertarian go-alongs claim that these are private companies, and government should never impost restrictions on any privately owned endeavors. But there are clear examples that fly in the face of that excise.

“The Skyway was operated and maintained by the City of Chicago until January 2005 when Skyway Concession Company, LLC assumed its operations under a 99-year operating lease. The lease agreement between Skyway and the City of Chicago was the first privatization of an existing toll road in the United States.”
The Skyway – Chicago Skyway

Anyone willing to pay the toll gets to use the skyway.
Who would make the argument that you cannot use that skyway based on your political views?




5. The Big Tech companies are information highways. The aim of these companies should be to increase the amount of information, communication, speech, available…..not just the state version of speech.

Justice Thomas, taking them on, is akin to Mel Gibson’s character in ‘Braveheart,’ shouting FREEDOM!!
Like they got Scalia? He knew they were spying on him .
 
Xiden is put together his Court packing panel...they will give their report in 180 days.

What does google search have to do with social media and free speech?

Nothing.

Just a weak attempt to distract away from the point by bringing up an unrelated topic.
 
16. “Clarence Thomas blasts Section 230, wants “common-carrier” rules on Twitter
Thomas claims Twitter's "right to cut off speech" may be First Amendment problem.


"Much like with a communications utility, this concentration gives some digital platforms enormous control over speech," Thomas wrote. Google "can suppress content by deindexing or downlisting a search result or by steering users away from certain content by manually altering autocomplete results," while "Facebook and Twitter can greatly narrow a person's information flow through similar means."
Amazon, "as the distributor of the clear majority of e-books and about half of all physical books... can impose cataclysmic consequences on authors by, among other things, blocking a listing," he wrote.



Arguing that lawmakers could impose common-carrier rules on digital platforms, Thomas wrote, "The similarities between some digital platforms and common carriers or places of public accommodation may give legislators strong arguments for similarly regulating digital platforms."


"That is especially true because the space constraints on digital platforms are practically nonexistent (unlike on cable companies), so a regulation restricting a digital platform's right to exclude might not appreciably impede the platform from speaking," Thomas added. Thomas also wrote that his common-carrier analysis does not mean "that the First Amendment is irrelevant until a legislature imposes common-carrier or public-accommodation restrictions—only that the principal means for regulating digital platforms is through those methods."

1. The Supreme Court did the right thing in respecting the will of the people. There were no constitutional issues for them to rule on. Clarence Thomaswanted to interfere in the elections. Obviously his Nazi wife has been brainwashing him.

2. No one has stolen our freedoms. There is no Big Tech. It is just more right wing conspiracy theories.

3. More crazy looney tune stuff by you. No one has lost any freedom. They do not have the power to silence anyone.

4. These are private companies and they have every right to prevent their platforms from being used to spread false information.

5. What you want to do is socialist. You want to take over private companies. No one is imposing anything.

The will of the people did not ask for an extension of the Election Day through legislative law. So factually you are wrong
 
I fear for CT's life because he is Black and over-weight. Not a good combination.

He has been a GREAT justice, and I have nothing but contempt for the Lefties who continually attack him for - they would never admit it - being a Black Conservative.

In short, Long Live Clarence Thomas!


He is noty a black conservative. He is a black Nazi. He has been struck down by TDS.

The DemNazis were so sure Hillary Rotten Clinton had it rigged that they offed Scalia imo, because they wanted to flip the courts. Also why Obama Bin Spying left 400 plus bench seats unfilled.



It certainly was strange, and unexpected.


But the recent inaction by the Supreme Court per the stolen election seems to indicate that the Wehrmacht....er, Democrats had nothing to worry about.


Best hopes for Thomas, the bravest of the Justices.

There was no stolen election. That is what you wanted the Supreme Court to do.

Clarence Thomas is the craziest of the justices.
 
6. Justice Thomas a Judge…but even more so, a scholar.

We can only hope that every law professional of good intent takes the message of Justice Thomas to heart. We have several ‘lawyers’ here on the board who are nothing more than apologists for the Democrat powers, neither knowledgeable, nor honorable. The understand nothing of our American heritage.

If all lawyers, judges, are of this sort, nothing will change, and American will continue, and increase in velocity, circling the drain.



7. Even the drones who simply parrot the Bolsheviks in power, speak of caselaw. And from the start of this nation, that was based on natural God-given rights. ‘That means that the most important function of government is to maintain pre-existing rights, not to create them, nor to dispense them. They are known and self-evident prior to the founding of our nation, are inalienable, whether one chooses to use them or not. They are that men are created equal, and enjoy the rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. They come from our Creator by virtue of our simply being human beings.’ George Will

The prime mission of Militant Secularism is to reverse, to 'undo,' this foundational view of America.

It is not beyond them to try to use ‘capitalism’ to disguise their evil intents.
Thomas is an Anti Prog. We do not have that many of them. We need all we can get.
