Should websites that pimp "Free Speech" be held to that, or shut down for lying?

There are limits to "free speech". Just as you can't go into a theater and yell "FIRE"...

Really? What if there's a "FIRE"!? You're insisting yelling "FIRE" is criminally prosecutable itself? Or, is it you're simply just another wannabe who doesn't understand it's not actually yelling "FIRE" that's the crime?

You want to really know why yelling "FIRE" has gotten such a bad rap? I mean, besides the bozos who yell it just for kicks? Because punks like you totally panic when you hear the word and stampede over others like a crazed baboon so you can save yourself, first and foremost...

...even though as a child "FIRE" was drilled into you over and over and over again - from kindergarten to graduation - so, on the oft chance you ever did grow up, you wouldn't act like a punk.

F-, dude.

...you can't go into a site and tell them they have to have topics that will get them shut down.

Perhaps you can link to where's that's actually ever happened at all on this site? I've been around going on 8 years and can never remember that happening. It's that wannabe in you coming out of your fabricating closet again, right?

So if you want to discuss "those" topics, go to a site that will permit it. Otherwise, FUCK OFF EYER!!!

Funny how this site permits some posters to discuss "those" topics much more blatantly than others who are banned for much less, eh? No? Would you like links to actual proof of that...

...or, are you quite comfortable continuing to chew on your very own bullshit?

Look: it's firmly established now that speech is entirely regulated here (literally meaning "Free Speech" doesn't exist in reality), and that some posters are allowed to post words others aren't, that some posters here are allowed to keep posting even after they vividly tell other posters what they'll do to family members, and some posters are allowed to violently and viciously tell others posters how they'd physically assault them (see neci's wannabe badass post to boynextdoor00 today).

So, you see, this thread is not about anything else but that total bullshit "Free Speech" up there in the right hand corner, a factual lie, used to pimp this place like lipstick on a pig.

Keep oinking that false advertising tune, lemming.
 
As usual, please wake me up if you ever post anything actually relevant.

Did you not understand the point, which would make you unbeliveably stupid, or did you not have a good answer and therefore pretends it didn't exist, which would make you a cunt? Choose one.

The point spelled out, if you were actually too dense to grasp it: Twitter, Facebook et al are private businesses of which you are not a paying customer. What you are is a carefully curated voluntary product programatically sold to advertisers and investors.

There is no trade between you and Twitter. So what would the Federal Trade Commission slap down?
 
the only wannabe seems to be you. you wannabe in the blurt bitch club and you just can't seem to get an invitation.

I would like the links. Let's see them.
 
Anarchists.

When Management disregards a female poster's concerns about being stalked incessantly, or that her stalker keeps spamming her threads with lewd pictures and posts.
And when other forum members had been validating or directly encouraging the stalking .

Yet the same Management instantly perma bans the stalked poster by claiming that she made repeated threats of "violence"
when that poster becomes exhausted and distressed by the incessant stalking and lashes out.

Yes, that poster was a nuisance and maybe deserved to be banned. The banning per se wasn't offensive.
But the means through which it was implemented makes one wonder about a lot of things.

The real hilarity over this incessant "banning butthurt" is that, practically speaking, it doesn't mean a goddamned thing other than having to generate a new Lit ID. Banned? Hell, they don't even have to sit in a corner for 10 minutes. And when they turn up once again like a very bad penny, is there the slightest doubt that Eyore, BusyBody, or LT has finished their bathroom break? Yet again?

Where's the fermented grape in this whine? :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

False advertising, squirrelnuts.
 
The real hilarity over this ...

... is that they keep doing the same things when they come back. They don't learn their lesson and change their behavior. They could come back, keep a low profile and no one would even know the difference.
 
Maybe you'd be happier if someone made a post about abortion in your thread.
That seems to never be off-topic for you.

2,500 totally innocent and completely defenseless live human lives intentionally and tortuously snuffed-out EVERY SINGLE DAY in America, simply for convenience...

I fully understand why it's never a topic you ever want to see held up before your very eyes, killa.
 
I think the government should have a light hand on the internet as far as regulation goes. That being said yeah if your gonna tout that your free speech then they should be made to practice what they preach. Free Speech is a high bar and if your going to claim that, you better dam well be doing it, otherwise you're just another partisan hack site trying to skate on fake credentials.

Actually, here in the US, free speech is a very low bar. As long as it does not involve physical harm, it should be permitted. That is a maxim from my past, "sticks and stones..."

Looks like I was right
Topic, folks: thread topic, thread topic, thread topic - let's all try to focus a bit better, eh?

So Eeyore is advocating that the government shuts down privately owned websites? Sounds a bit Stalinist to me.
