Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't aggressive internet cenorship been happening while was Trump president? Why is Congress trying to rush through a law that limits free speech before Trump gets evicted on January 20th?

Trump is disposable so they can use him to pass laws they want without losing any of their own political capital.
If it gets revoked under Trump its unlikely that it will be put back into effect or replaced with a suitable alternative.

How possible would it be that Kiwi Farms clones will pop up in the near future if REPEAL 230 happens? If I recall, voat was created because of Reddit and Bitchute was created because of YouTube.

If an alternate forum exists that takes free speech seriously and caters more to it's users than corporations or SJWs I will gladly 100% support it like I currently do with Bitchute.

Like I've stated more than once, KF is/was the last bastion of free speech, so the market for that kind of stuff is immensely needed. Image Boards are no longer a valid option for a long term solution since 1. they cater to a niche audience and 2. the """big""" one (4chan) is so normie infested its basically Reddit 2: Electric Boogaloo.

I can't remember having as much fun in the past places i've been over the years like I've had in KF for the short amount of time I've been here (almost a year in January), and that includes every DDR/StepMania and other video game forums I've participated in.

The thing is, Trump's probably not accounting for anything that isn't Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. In the mind of a baby boomer; social media IS the internet. That along with smartphones, and wireless internet is pretty much the only reason why your parents and all your aunts and uncles touch the damn thing outside of their emails for funny cat pictures and doctor appointments. I'm sure Trump will get many people on his ass saying "hey...wait a minute"

I won't see you end as redditors.
You're all diamonds....

Jk, in all seriousness, this most likely is a bluff considering how Trump has been a smoking hot mess since the election and Biden is dementia personified.
 
I don't think this specific attempt will go down the way Trump and you expect it to, the moment this is taken to any court or justice body it will be ruled that Section 230 has jack to do with the military and the veto will be overruled.

Calm down Josh, you're starting to sound like Tim Pool.

This is turning out to be a very illuminating thread.

Indeed! Who knew there were still people on the net neutrality bandwagon after all their claims turned out false?

Some people will never learn. In a couple months null will be freaking out over Trump's next bluff. And the same dickriders will be dickriding and screaming about the sky falling.
