Yep. This will be us in two years if people don't vote with their brain in the next election.

That's a far cry from what China is doing and has been doing for a while.

We are on the precipice of being there with the way we shut down the speeches of voices we don’t like.
UK and Canada are one step ahead of us, sadly for them. |

I don’t think it’s both sides are shutting down speeches. One is mainly college students protesting which if authority (school or law enforcement) wants, they can choose to protect the speaker to deliver his/her speech vs the other one in which the authority (the highest authority in the world) is asking to shut down media which he doesn’t like... different |

More conflation from finger.
People protesting voices they find objectionable is completely different than a government incarcerating people who speak out against it.
So save the "both sides" nonsense.

Agreed. Which is why I said we are on the precipice of it.
We dont have laws like UK and canada. Yet.
And we’ve seen people, in government, on both sides, airing sentiments of controlling speech which should we a concern for all.
No need to be defensive. |

| Out of 1.7 billion people in China how do they track this person down by posting something online. What if her account has been hacked or something and she was set up? |

If a voice is too uninformed and only there to cause divisiveness then it can politely (bleep) off.. like all the Republicans from the NRA.. like every trump cabinet member
WOMP WOMP was the response to immigrant children being abused in cages..
Does that (bleep) piece of (bleep) deserve balanced air time too... huh???
I just had to hear about some stupid (bleep) named Candace Owens .. Hitler also sought to make Germany Great...
should this (bleep) be given equal air time
If I owned a media outlet Trump would never be mentioned or covered. EVER unless Obituary.. He is the devil incarnate and deserves to be rebuked at every turn

So the question here is, on the bolded, what do you suggest ought to be done about it? If a particular subject doesn't deserve equal air time in your view, then someone, or some body, has to decide what subject deserves what amount of time, and then use threat of force to ensure it. So who would that person or body be?
And the whole Candace Owens/Ted Lieu thing is just comedy. Her quote was taken out of context by the same man who complained his comment was taken out of context not too long ago. That particular comment, was that he would love to regulate the content of speech but the first amendment prevents him from doing so. |

Devin Nunes is now suing people to stop their free speech
Anyone who gave a womp womp to suffering children no longer has a voice
They can free speech with Alex Jones and Rush Limbaugh
In an halfway normal world Trump would be on some 2am public air channel
Using his first amendment rights
But we have Conservative "News" channels spouting lies and propaganda all day for 15 plus years. That was protected speech that help bring the World GEOTUS
Constant gaslighting and lies. Why are liars and pigs on my television all day? |

Change the channel. That's the beauty of free speech. You can just CHOOSE what you want to watch or not watch. |

Unless you find out Sixty Million people voted for Trump
Then you realize those Womp Womp pieces of (bleep)
Are accepted
And
Their Running (bleep) homie
Jews changed the channel until millions? Were gassed and turned to ashes
You voted these people into office
Your support brings pain to America |

Once again -- what is your suggestion? Eliminate voting, choice, and freedom?
What do you propose we DO about the fact you don't like what we have? |

Change the legal system for Politicians. Activate it.
Start locking the up the actual criminals. Any politician who takes ill gotten gains needs removed and prosecuted.. ALL of them ASAP..
Change the schools from houses of indoctrination to places that fertilize and nourish children's brains to think logically
I don't see how America can ever recover from Trump
I left this open and will probably find something to add but the thought that just crossed my mind is
These people really are terrorists in my souls mind. I am unable to contemplate how to communicate with them. Honestly, this is like The Walking Dead tv show.. *I see most television as a waste of life.. and that show.. tuning in week after week to see what "Zombies" do next????? It is just like the Trump Admin 24x7 to me.. They are deeply infected and I cannot understand the others accepting their existence.. I mean that.. accepting their existence no less promoting and supporting them
It is a nightmare a Soulmare?? if such a word exists
I was beaten and abused as a child. Womp Womp .. what do I do..
Be like MLK Gandhi Jesus et al..
Send Love?
Cast thy pearls to swine?? what is that about..
You realize that accepting any Republican is supporting Trump.. right? anything that brands itself with an R.. is support for Trump
Just like in NAZI Germany.. he got them to do pogroms but did they know he was going to murder 6 million of them? |
