green lurchers 16,704 Posted November 27, 2020 Report Share Posted November 27, 2020 He’s back with his Marxist trained drivel “ Obama said Wednesday, "What's always interesting to me is the degree to which you've seen created in Republican politics the sense that White males are victims." Banging the same old racist theories as always clap clap Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't believe she actually worked for Trump and was never paid for anything she did. He's mentioned her and Lin in his press statement that you probably didn't watch.

Obama is a knob , him ridiculing trump at the gala is apparently a big part of why trump ran for office in the first place, watching that flint water doc Obama flies in tells all the community it's safe to drink whilst they're getting poisoned , then refuses to drink a glass during press conference, he's a massive sell out. It's the protection given to social media companies and ISPs etc from prosecution for the content on their services. Twitter and facebook now act like publishers (because they censor content) and so there has been a long running discussion as to whether they should keep this protection.

You're right mate. I haven't watched it, or her, but waiting for this staggering evidence that they're waiting for the eleventh hour to produce. It's an 11 on the noise scale at this point, but it might still turn into something credible. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think the doc you refer to was clear on the facts. But then that's not a surprise is it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I kinda hope this does amount to something just because it will be a welcome distraction from the covid stuff. 2 minutes ago, ChrisJones said: Yep.

I loved the internet of old but now its just a nightmare of censorship and worse a victim of authoritarian control by governments. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I loved the internet of old but now its just a nightmare of censorship and worse a victim of authoritarian control by governments. GT is this forum. General Talk. Dems want to ban hate speech which is why they want to repeal 230. Reps are complaining they're being censored by authoritarian control and want to hold companies responsible by repealing 230. The practical reality of that decision on a forum like this, or FB, or Twitter, etc etc is that every single post that is submitted will have to be moderated to ensure that it doesn't contravene whatever rules these people put into place. Private companies on the internet (like this one) can currently avoid state level censorship as both you and I are individuals that use this as a platform. The site itself is considered a platform and can't be held to the standard of publisher. When that changes, and the sites can be held responsible for what you and I may post they will have to restrict that to avoid legal consequences. The blissful irony here is that big Don wouldn't be allowed to post on Twitter under his own rules! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't forget you live in the US, the police and their freaks in the hate crime divisions probably don't bother monitoring forums anymore but they absolutely do monitor Facebook and Twitter and will pay you a visit for stuff even if it's not illegal. I have a story about that I may share one day Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have a story about that I may share one day I get ya, mate, but the reality is a law penned by the likes of our glorious republic wouldn't be specific to just Facebook and Twitter. We don't have hate crimes divisions and it's something I'd like to stay that way! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
