Think of it like collusion and what Trump said about it. "No law against it, so who cares?"Censorship is censorship, regardless of who does it or if it is legal or not. Right there in the opening post.
"Censorship is the suppression of speech, public communication, or other information. This may be done on the basis that such material is considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or "inconvenient". Censorship can be conducted by governments, private institutions and other controlling bodies."
No. There are no pertinent quotes for what you are talking about.Are you referring to the Wikipedia quote?
It does not fit reality. I've raised 3 kids. They didn't get their way, just by whining, they thought something wasn't fair to them, that I would ignore what they said to get their way. So, you don't get to take over media companies to make them do your bidding. OK. Big deal. Go start your own and run them out of the advertising business, you think people would like your business model better.Are you able to see the CLEARLY defined pattern unfolding on this thread that I predicted in the opening post?
You brought up lefties.... I pointed out that your blob actually interfered with a reporter doing their job in the White House no less.Lol, it never takes long for lefties to bring Trump into a thread. TDS is here to stay.
I said that? Some people should be deplatformed if they are spreading mis-information. They can go on doing it, of course...but the platform has the right to limit who can use it. Twitter, FB, Gateway Pundit, this board....are all private entities that play by their own rules. Right? The White House...another story. That is the people's house.Can you say that you are against censorship?
Conservatives have a think skinEither act like social human beings or develop a thick skin.
Thank you for demonstrating how out touch you are with others. The overwhelming majority of Americans embrace freedom of speech while recognizing that there must be some limits such as libel, slander, child pornography, sedition, incitement to riot, classified information, copyright violation, and trade secrets. In other words our rights to free speech is not absolute.Thank you for demonstrating this part of my opening post:
" All we have to do is watch how this thread unfolds, and we will see one side of the aisle supporting and defending censorship, and the other condemning it."
It is the left that has fought against censorship and for more freedom of expression in movies, book, and music and lifting censorship of all forms of pornography and applauded and helped Snowden and others in the release of government secrets and censored documents. The ACLU has been fighting government censorship for over 80 years, with more than 500 challenges in court to censorship.As we can see, my opening post prediction that a pattern of replies would emerge was accurate. Lefties support and defend censorship. The naturally occurring pattern of lefties supporting censorship has clearly been established in this thread. Every lefty who has replied to this thread is supporting censorship.
You are building a case FOR censorship, no surprise here.Thank you for demonstrating how out touch you are with others. The overwhelming majority of Americans embrace freedom of speech while recognizing that there must be some limits such as libel, slander, child pornography, sedition, incitement to riot, classified information, copyright violation, and trade secrets. In other words our rights to free speech is not absolute.
However, what we see on USMB is an overwhelming imbalance where the far left and far right and far everything else are over represented. This is probably due to the fact that extremist posts tend to generate more responses than more moderate posts that are less inflammatory. So yes, on USMB, I would not be surprised to see a post or so advocating unlimited freedom of speech or severe limitation.
Are you denying the CLEAR pattern that has been established on this thread that the opening post predicted?It is the left that has fought against censorship and for more freedom of expression in movies, book, and music and lifting censorship of all forms of pornography and applauded and helped Snowden and others in the release of government secrets and censored documents.

I have read your posts on the this thread. You have defined censorship quite well or maybe I should say Wikipedia has. What you have not done is taking any stand on censorship. For example do you believe censorship is ever justified and under what conditions. Do this and we can have honesty discussion but that of course is not the purpose of the thread.Are you denying the CLEAR pattern that has been established on this thread that the opening post predicted?
Correct. This thread was meant specifically to demonstrate that lefties love censorship, and how they always support and defend it. If I simply state that lefties support and defend censorship, they will deny it. This thread however, demonstrates the predictable pattern described in the opening post. Lefties demonstrated here that I am correct, by supporting and defending censorship all the way through the thread. Lefties can lie and say they are against it, but this thread demonstrates the truth with the clear pattern that unfolded.What you have not done is taking any stand on censorship.
Why don't you just start a thread about what you want to talk about?For example do you believe censorship is ever justified and under what conditions. Do this and we can have honesty discussion but that of course is not the purpose of the thread.
The reasons why lefties want to discuss conditions where censorship is justified is the same reason young men jack off to titty magazines. You know you love censorship, and you like to envision as many scenarios as possible where you could justify using censorship, even though you are on a political board where the context of censorship automatically defaults to the political weapon variety.For example do you believe censorship is ever justified and under what conditions.
Or it could be, we just believe freedom of speech is not absolute as affirmed by the Supreme Court. Since you the lack the ability to express any opinion, only make unsupported claims we'll put you down as a lover of censorship.The reasons why lefties want to discuss conditions where censorship is justified is the same reason young men jack off to titty magazines. You know you love censorship, and you like to envision as many scenarios as possible where you could justify using censorship, even though you are on a political board where the context of censorship automatically defaults to the political weapon variety.
So you want to censor me on this thread. I knew it all along, your desire to censor is showing.Why don't you just start a thread about what you want to talk about?
