Twitter Hides POTUS Tweet

I think you guys are missing the part where even if they repealed that bill, someone else could just reinstate it at the end of the year. I know it's easy to be all doom and gloom, but people are always going to find a way to have freedom to express themselves, legally or not. Maybe a worldwide ban on simple conversation is what we need for a censor free technology to erupt from its corpse. An internet made purely wireless with no physical hosts or accountability. Or you know, you can just wait a few months for them to put their law back if they lose it in the first place.
I'm not sure anyone missed that, or even thought of it. There is a lot of retard rage going on right now though, which is funny.
 
If I got my wish, it would come down to an agreement that Twitter can still flag Trump's tweets but they also have to flag all "Kill all cis white men" and "Vaccines cause autism" tweets as well.

Oh absolutely, could you imagine the absolute chaos if Twitter were to factcheck, say, any tweet from China shills?

Or, say, the WHO's one tweet way back when they said they didn't know of any human to human transmission?
 
Then the point is stupid and I'm done. If this happens I am done with the United States. I will drop everything and expatriate officially in someplace with honey bees and snow and nobody will ever know where I went.
I absolutely wish you the best and wouldn't really blame you.

Considering your primary mode of interaction is through the Web and could be originating anywhere on Earth - what would be lost? Aren't you technically gaining by relocating?

I can think of places with good internet where the cost of living is a tenth of what it is in the states. You could get a beachfront mansion in El Salvador for about $400 a month and have food delivered to you daily by private security.

While we've had our differences here today, I like your post-nationalist thinking. Citizen of the World.

Sounds pretty comfy, is that your old age plan anyway though? Why suffer in the present?
 
It's funny how the same people who were talking about how the government wants to have lockdown to take away our freedoms and it's bad to set precedence are all okay with this shit.

And the thread has become political spergery. I'll see myself out.

To be fair, this is a pretty political topic.
 
You want platforms like Twitter not to be able to censor political opinions? Give anything with a market cap of $X Billion even broader immunity than Section 230 and treat them as a common carrier but they can't remove shit, ever, other than CP and spam to keep the network functioning, and can't ever kick anyone off, even convicted criminals.

The EO is going to put the fear of god (emperah) into soy valley social media. You are going to see them at least play at being good bois. Maybe that's all Trump is going for, getting them to quake in their onsies so hard they spill their soylent, and don't pull public opinion fuckfuck games.

If you actually want to fix the problem, @AnOminous lays out a pretty solid high-level over view of how.

But Trump calling for the repeal of 230 - and making twitter pay for it - is just bluster and scare mongering to make the soy boys bend the knee. For the person in the know, very scary.For the average normie you might as well be saying "Repeal the Fluxbustlers Act!"

You honestly think Biden would reinstate it? As it is? Let alone win? lmao


Trump needs to target the specific section that is giving platforms the ability to abuse censorship, and he is 100% right to put pressure on these platforms. Problem is he is doing it like a boomer who doesn't understand the internet because like most politicians he is.

poor wording on my part then, but I figured I'd point it out anyway. People love drama and hyperbole, and after getting excited for the collapse of society over and over, or some kind of change all these years, I feel like it's good to remind people that I've been disappointed over and over, and they probably will too.

We have to get the frog out of the pot somehow, or kill the damn thing and be over with it.

If canada werent buddy buddy with the states, I'd say come to quebec. Fucking nobody would notice another rude asshole amongst the sea of assholes. Dont even need to speak frog, everyone here will suddenly understand it after you spend enough time bitching at them in English.
 
yet again the plebs fail to comprehend the delicate 85D Connect Four afoot :smug:
You heard about the autopsy of George Floyd, right? Died of a heart attack, wasn't murdered.

Certain kinds of people burn down their city over an ex-con cokehead who died of natural causes in police custody.

These kinds of people see Trump as a monster, riots as peaceful protests, China as our friends, penises as poison, etc.

They are going to be out in force screaming about Section 230 and they'd really, really like it if you joined them.

yeah Biden def wouldn't reinstate it, just today he restated he wants it gone too. He just wants it gone so it can be replaced with a law that holds websites accountable for platforming falsehoods, lol. Presumably the truth will upheld by a legion of impartial robots and not a bunch of DNC interns whose truth always happens to align with the administration :(

I'm worried about him. I feel like he's losing it more and more these passing weeks. First the big Dick Show Simp fiasco, now this.

I dunno what he's gonna do next, but I hope it doesn't result in something goofy.
He always sounds like this on fucking Twitter, even before he became president. None of this shit is new or exciting. He's an attention whore and he knows how to get attention and by God, he does it well. He did this exact same song and dance with the bumpstock ban not two years ago with the 2A crowd after the Las Vegas shooting and hasn't really done anything 2A related (at least anything major) since.

I think if it gives them free votes or a guaranteed victory, anyone would do it. Whether they find a reason not to in the process is another thing. The internet's been fucked for a very long time. Social media is like pandora's box, and although there is some good in it, I think the world would be a better place without twitter, facebook and its ilk. But since the idea exists, and has thrived this many years, there is no real getting rid of it outside of a new technology replacing it. I've thought of a few things that could at least help though. Something that can mass crawl twitter profiles and determine where each cluster of users is coming from, or why they're lashing out against one thing or another. A means of detecting mass botted upvotes, people who are paid influencers etc. There needs to be clarity that even the most simple minded people can understand, because a lot of those users aren't even real, a lot of those ideas are peddled by one source or another, and the hundreds of thousands who are rallied behind that cause might only be about 10,000 who were duped into it.
