You guys joined within weeks of each other.You must be new. TERB is a hot mess on a good day
My point is what is directly stated the quote.
Which is that the majority of terrorism is from the right.
I’m not justifying the actions but providing one possible reason for this and this is censorship. The left don’t get censored. The right have been heavily censored on free speech. They’ve been told what the new normal is as dictated by the liberal media and their government. This is the whole reason people like your fellow countryman, (whom I know you don’t care much for) Jordan Peterson has become such a popular world figure.
“If you tell people they can’t speak, they scream. If you tell them they can’t scream, they tear things down. Free speech is a precondition for peace.”
I anticipate major race conflicts in the UK as a result of social media censorship laws. The government can’t tell people what to do and think based. Trump is doing the same against Trans and I anticipate bad events coming from this as well from Ts.
Free Speech:
You are confusing consequences with censorship.
If you racially abuse someone, harass a woman at work, or make anti-LGBTQ comments you are going to get fired from your job.
This is not an attack on your freedoms.
It is a consequence of your actions.
Social media censorship:
Has 2 sources.
1. The Republicans and Democrats have asked social media platforms to remove content they considered defamatory or as misinformation.
2. Social media platforms have their own rules as they are private and when people break those rules they get suspended. Again not an attack on free speech, but it is a consequence of your free speech.
Well, you can concealed carry in FL, IIRC. So at least you could fire back when the righties attack you.
I am not talking about workplace bullying, harassment, or racism. This has been consistent for several decades, although it is certainly being enforced more now than ever in mandatory workplace training.
I am talking about social media and in the public domain.. For example, many parents have had complaints on woke topics being forced into school curriculums only to be told to shut up. This is very unsettling for parents.
While social media platforms are private entities, significant government involvement in content moderation decisions can invoke First Amendment scrutiny, questioning whether these platforms act as proxies for state censorship. Facebook heavily censored people due to the government forcing them to. Zuck finally grew a pair and came to his senses.
These were major issues that the voting public had problems with that are already being walked back by the Trump administration.
The government involvement in moderation was on both sides.
Both the Republicans and the Democrats did it.
I dont think it is inherently wrong for a government to ask for misinformation to be moderated especially during times like COVID.
In schools what woke topics were being taught?
Parents should not have a political take on what is being taught in schools.
Schools should teach the right things independently and that also includes acceptance of diversity.
So are you really arguing that there is a similar amount of left-wing and right-wing terrorism in the US but right-wingers are just much more successful at it?
Or are you arguing that right-wingers are much worse at it and get caught and arrested more often?
I love enmos’s post about Elon’s “molesting the truth.” So true.
Yankistan is my
This is one of those massive differences between Canada and the US that you truly have to experience it first time to understand how incompatible we are as people. Asking perfect strangers questions about politics -- and especially religion -- is extremely taboo in Canada, but it seems to be common practice in the USA.
I remember being about 7 and visiting my grandparents in Arizona, where they spent winters. I was in the pool and a couple, probably in the 60s, started talking with me. They had met my parents the night before. They asked what church we attended and I said we didn't go to church, and they seemed shocked. Even at 7 I thought that question was fucking weird and inappropriate.
Not true, look at the media suppression and attacks on free speech for both Palestine protesters and climate change protesters. I was talking to a an american tenured prof the other day and they said you just can't say the word 'Palestine' there without massive censure. On the right people are being censured over waving nazi flags and claiming that's an attack on free speech. People have lost their jobs for protesting on the left way more than on the right.
Now you're going to add in people protesting LGBTQ, again, in the states.
Very much, do the righties on the board now think this is middle right?
Remember the story about the little boy that cried wolf?
When you call everyone that you disagree with a Nazi for a decade, people begin tuning you out.
That's why it's so dangerous when you abuse words for political and social capital.
totally avoided and missed my point.... Guy Caballero called... you're fired.
what planet are you on ?
you claimed
and i just repeated my point
the rest is covered as well
again
is this your big point?
yes its a given Trump triggers you, nothing new there
your grade 4 teacher called.... you failed reading comprehension.... once again
she was so disappointed, after all she did spend that extra year repeating the lessons for you
So are you saying then that Timothy McVeigh, or Dylann Roof for example had legitimate causes for their terrorism and if they were in power, their attack considered legitimate?
