Will ANYONE in the government be held accountable for violations of the first amendment via Twitter?

[Mac1958]

It sure seems like you seem to want to give the FBI and other agencies a pass for working with Twitter to censor stories that have since been proven to be true. Maybe we are all misinterpreting your position here.

If you're going to communicate with me, read what I actually write. If I don't say something, don't assume it. If you're not clear, ask.

I'm not an ideologue. My opinions do not fall obediently in line with those of either party. I have disagreements with both on virtually every issue.

That's all I'm asking.

I see the first two responses are from idiots who can't grasp the idea that the government is BANNED from interfering in the free speech of its citizens yet went out of its way to do that very thing by putting pressure on Twitter and most likely every other social media site

Trump's government you mean? Yeah, he should be impeached.

Let's not forget Facebook and Google all did exactly the same the last couple election cycles Has the DNC paid for this service?

Government is banned from establishing laws that prohibit free speech

They are welcome to assist private entities in determining misinformation and propaganda

Hysterical

Tell me you don’t know what the First Amendment is without saying you don’t know what the First Amendment is.

It is hysterical how little Conservatives know about the First Amendment and how outraged they get when their lies, misinformation and conspiracy theories are challenged

You repeat the lie until you convinced yourself

Tell me you don’t know what the First Amendment is without saying you don’t know what the First Amendment is.

You clearly don't. COLLUSION between GOVERNMENT and BUSINESS to stifle the rights of the CITIZEN is the definition of a FASCIST STATE

Once any degree of nuance or complexity enters an issue, they go right off the rails.

It's either this, or it's that. That's all.

It is either this or that. Nuance is just ******* spin.

 

[Moonglow]

Had the govt. shut down Twitter over what was posted it would be a different story.

And there ya go.

You folks can't say I'm not paying attention.

This thread isn't about you Mac. As usual you have your head up your own ass

Public schools are government institutions and the teachers are essentially government officials. It is not their job to teach sexual perversions to children.
You support grooming now do you?

And lol at the Disney reference. Taking tax exempt statuses is within the rights of DeSantis and his administration.

Stop ******* deflecting like a child and STAY ON TOPIC

IT IS ALL WITHIN THE LEGAL RIGHTS of an administration.

lol. It is ok to use the government to censor free speech when it comes to discussion of race or a PRIVATE company’s FREE SPEECH rights. You are certainly selective.

 

[Blaster]

To anyone but the most partisan it is clear that first amendment violations are abundant but will ANYONE be held to account for it?

If not our so called constitutional rights are nothing but a figment of our imagination IMO.

I'm convinced nothing will be done about these violations. Democrats seem immune from liability.

 

[Mac1958]

This thread isn't about you Mac. As usual you have your head up your own ass

And yet, you folks keep posting to and about me.

So, sorry, that's not me.

I don't know the answer to your question, yes, no, or indifference. Elon Musk will be publishing a lot of the misery of the infliction of false witness against innocent people in the near future, because after he reviewed the site, he decided to use his wealth in a way that would reduce the false witnesses, whoever and whereever they are.

But they do, with YOUR SUPPORT, when they punished Disney for it’s free speech.

Now that IS a case of using the government actively suppress free speech.

 

[SweetSue92]

Not when that suppresses free citizens' free speech

Their speech wasn't censored lol. Their tax exempt status was changed
