We have had censorship discussions before and you always sided with whichever business or industry is involved.
And you have always had difficuly understanding the difference between a BUSINESS censoring its own content on its own platform vs the GOVERNMENT telling a business what can and cannot appear on its platform!
An illustrative point: recall the "de-platforming" of Parler (the Trumpite alternative to Twitter):
- Amazon (owner of AWS) told them they were in violation of their terms of service, which Parler ignored
- Amazon warned them they were in danger of being turned off (de-platformed), which Parler ignored
- Amazon turned off Parler - and they screamed like a poked pig! Then again, in about a month (delayed only because of their own focus on portraying themselves as victims) they were back up on another platform.
Those are the facts. YOU thought the Government should intervene and FORCE AWS to keep Parler.
I said AWS was within their rights to "cancel" the Parler account. It was a business decision - and one that angered many AWS "tenants" (and endeared others).
UMM, are you forgetting that the person you voted for has been open that he is working directly with big tech on who and what topics to ban? Both Biden and Jen Psaki has gleefully admitted to it.
I don't mind the President saying he'd like certain things taken down: Trump certainly did it! Facebook, Twitter, etc. can take advise from anyone they want - even YOUR Boss, Comrade Putin! I don't object to their "accepting" advise from any source!
I would object to the Government FORCING them to do the President's bidding! They are private businesses! Their "job" is to grow the business and make money for their investors.
Businesses are FREE to be as political or apolitical as they want (under most circumstances - Government Contractors cannot be overtly political). Being a Conservative, I'm generally used to being in the "good graces" of big business. Trump has arguably changed (or at least STARTED to change) that equation. Time will tell - but business will (and should) continue to do what's best for their shareholders and stakeholders - not any political party! (Not even MY political party!)
We shouldn't be surprised that you liberals are never, ever consistent in your dogma.
You, Comrade, are the one with dogma whiplash! Let there be NO Government interference when things are going your way, but when they DON'T, why THEN, the Government needs to intervene!
Instagram is NOT THE GOVERNMENT. Not Federal, not State, not local, not even Global or InterGalactic! Thus, you have no 1st Amendment rights there... the 1st Amendment protects you from GOVERNMENT infringement of free speech! Individuals (and businesses) are NOT also "controlled" by the 1st Amendment.
READ IT: "Congress shall make no law...*" It doesn't say "People shall not...." or "Businesses shall not..." - it only applies to the Government - even more specifically, the FEDERAL Government - it can apply to State & Local Governments only in so far as they also include free speech protections - but those are not the same as 1st Amendment protections, tho they are often conflated).
"BURN THE WITCH" for not following the science that you like and "BURN THE WITCH" for following the science you hate.
I mean, we aren't talking the bullshit non-science crap the homophobic NARTH put out in the 1980s - 2000s. NARTH's state goal was to uphold the ultra far-right's agenda on all topics and they would use science to do it. From memory, in 35ish years, they only had 1 successful peer-reviewed study and that said that kids of gay parents suffered because other people treated them like shit. They used that to prove why LGBs (especially gay men) should be banned from having kids.
SOCIAL SCIENCE is soft, pseudo-science (shit, NAMBLA had studies that showed the pedophilia was psychologically GOOD for the young boys who were abused! SICK!)
MEDICAL SCIENCE is not a LOT BETTER, but it's making headway. Some of Medical Science is "hard evidence" (like when you can measure levels of antibodies), but some of Medical Science is "soft" - like when they tell you what the "good" levels of cholesterol are - because they're purely "observational".
MATH (including STATISTICS) is mostly HARD SCIENCE - like the ability to count 81-million votes AGAINST Trump, and just 74-million FOR Trump in 2020! LOL (I couldn't resist!)
CHEMISTRY is mostly HARD SCIENCE (mix Chlorine and Ammonia and you get a DEADLY gas - every time, not just some of the time!)
POLITICAL SCIENCE is an oxymoron

AGAIN, you are a whore to the fake (like you) "human rights" of businesses, but you could not care less about the real human rights of people.
Your beloved child molesting Dear Father and his mouthpiece love to brag that they are working directly with "Big tech" on who and what to ban.
I can only imagine how gaping and sloppy your ass is with all the whoring you do for business's "human rights".

Comrade, your translator is stuck again. You're posting the same drivel in multiple threads.
Check your vocabulary, Comrade... I don't know the Russian word for it, but you are confusing the English words "right" (as-in: human rights) and "freedom". Look them up!
Your beloved child molesting Dear Father and his mouthpiece love to brag that they are working directly with "Big tech" on who and what to ban.
Again, Comrade... you're repeating yourself. YOU are the one who REVERES individuals: Czar Vladimir and Czarina Trump (the crown-bitch of Putin!)
I can only imagine how gaping and sloppy your ass is with all the whoring you do for business's "human rights".
Thankfully, my business (I own my own) has the freedom to choose it's customers, choose its offerings... and every once in a while, we get to do fun things: like FIRE CUSTOMERS! (I did this just last month... a customer who consistently pays late, lies about "the check is in the mail" and "oh, our records say we paid that"... They got 3-months behind so I gave them 30 days to get current or they'd be cutoff... well, 30 days came and went... and they're out! If they want us back, they can pre-pay from now on... AFTER they pay back invoices.
I know things like that don't happen in Mother Russia - you just report the non-payers, and the KGB handles it - though you ALSO lose the customer that way... our way is less bloody though...

YES, it is "drivel" so why do you keep doing it?
Why do you care so much about the "human rights" of business, but don't give a fuck about the human rights of actual humans?
LOL, says Pelosi's panty shield and the loser with a shrine to St Fauci.
It's funny, how you and Bejing Biden don't give a fuck about the legal and human rights of actual people.

Comrade, why do you continue to claim these FREEDOMS are somehow RIGHTS?
Is your English vocabulary really THAT LIMITED?

Well, you don't think actual humans have legal or human rights, so fuck off.

You haven't raised any questions about human rights! You've only talked about freedoms!
If you want to talk about human rights, tell me why you believe that basic healthcare should be reserved for the rich?
If being born (and not aborted) is a basic human right, why isn't eating? Or getting medical care?
If society insists we bring these people INTO the world, then society needs to step up and provide them with basic human rights!
(This is a subject I know - and admit - that my views on are somewhat liberal... and I'm not ashamed of that!)

You and I have repeatedly had and are currently having the discussion.
You are against actual people having rights, but you scream like a crack whore in church when one of your own passes some stupid law.

No - you are discussing FREEDOMS: the freedom you have to post shit on YouTube and to have them pay you for it, and the loss of that freedom because YouTube determined that managing so many small producers was too expensive and stopped.
You are discussing the FREEDOM people have to post pics on Instagram, and the loss of that freedom when the owner of Instagram doesn't like your content. (Did the parable about the wall not help you at all?)
You haven't described ANYONE'S rights being trampled... only Social Media companies exercising their freedom in ways you do not like!

You need to back away from Pelosi's vag, you are too drunk already.
