Regarding the apparent and imminent repeal of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act and the future of this website.

This might be a stupid question, but if NDAAs only started being used in 1967, how was the military funded before then?

Normal appropriation bills as well as those for the Department of War/Defense.

 

[HumptyDumpty]

Not being American isn't an excuse to not know what a veto is. People are just retarded, unfortunately.

William Roper: “So, now you give the Devil the benefit of law!”

Sir Thomas More: “Yes! What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get after the Devil?”

William Roper: “Yes, I'd cut down every law in England to do that!”

Sir Thomas More: “Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned 'round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted thick with laws, from coast to coast, Man's laws, not God's! And if you cut them down, and you're just the man to do it, do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes, I'd give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety's sake!”

Threatening to eliminate 230 was stupid. I understand Trump's anger and frustration -- Fecesbook, Twatter, and the e-thugs at Google have been part of the Democrat media machine for a while. But this was the wrong way to go about things.

Then again, considering the federal government is littered with time-serving hacks uninterested in law (except what they can make up on the fly), maybe he just couldn't get any traction through more traditional measures. Personally I'd have given Twitter the Steve Jackson Games treatment, but then, that's why I'm not president.

SCOTUS rejecting the Texas lawsuit is unfortunate. It was a long shot anyways -- I'm a bit surprised they just rejected it out of hand without hearing it. Guess even SCOTUS wants to sweep this shitstorm of a year under the rug. Hope it was worth it for Kavanaugh, though, considering the thuggery thrown at him by the left.

Glad I was right about 230 (I had a smidge of worry because many of those assholes in DC are complete fucking morons). Between that and SCOTUS and other courts bitchslapping the fucking lunatic orange toddler in the White House, it's been a good week.

Does this mean the OnionFarms will be less of a priority now?

And i just got finished making an account and posting on there.

Oh well, now i have 2 homes on the internet. No harm, no foul.

Veto-proof majorities (more than 2/3rds) of both the House and Senate have passed the NDAA. If Trump chooses to veto anyways and is rebuked by these same numbers, it will be the first veto override of his presidency. Getting overriden by congress during the lame duck would be perhaps the most humiliating way possible to end his presidency.

There's a lot of "ifs".
He could try to introduce new legislation and have it forced through before the 20th, but that'd be unlikely.
He could also veto and then congressmen who voted to pass the bill could decide not to override. This would restart negotiations on defense spending.

i.e. not over yet, but if I gave this a 70% chance of working when I wrote OP, I'd give it a 30% chance now. The GOP is peeling away from him more strongly than I expected.

One of the few times I'm happy Trump doesn't get his way.

The USA hosts most of the places I like. Probably because it traditionally has a less nosy government, although that seems to be changing.

Erm... ixnay on the esslay osynay overnmentgay

Have you heard about the Five Eyes? Its the thing America is part of and privacy is not a word that's in their dictionary.

The Fourteen Eyes are the better choices if you're going for something that doesn't collect a fuck-ton of info.

Fact: slandering people nonstop gets you nowhere.

It's funny though.

Who dis? I’m out of the loop here.

 

[AnOminous]

I may be a retard but doesn't this include the annual 40 billion we give to Israel?

No. Except maybe direct military aid. A bunch of other committees are responsible for foreign aid which mostly goes through the State Department, not the military.

Another year of living, another year of internet tards seething. Here's to 2021

Who dis? I’m out of the loop here.

This is (highly suspected to be) Onision’s sock account DMing one of the KF users he hates the most, a Canadian moose bitch by the name of @heatboss , soon after Null announced the possibility of Section 230 being repealed. He has a thread in the beauty parlor, you should check it out if you want to burn your eyes out of your skull.

HAHAHAHA I was skimming over that, then saw the end with heatboss and knew exactly what it was. Stay mad Onision.

Well fuck me sideways, if this shit doesn't pass, maybe it's a sign from the heavens that I should become a true and honest fan.

 

[SPhobos]

Ozma fat.

 

[Vince McMahon]

Gay shit. The warmongers are protecting their media whores.

Revoke 230 now.

Assimilate or fuck off, telling you as a newfag myself.

 

[Lame Entropy]

We live to shit post another day.

 

[Liber Pater]

So we get to keep 230 (for now), but this bill passing also means that our faggot (((GOP))) senators also voted overwhelmingly to placate niggers and commies by renaming military installations. Right after voting to flood the country with 100k+ pajeets with a green card giveaway.

Even "good" things are always double-edged sword with this bunch.

 

[Long Tongue Silver]

Glad to know my right to call someone a nigger on the Interwebs remains untrampled.
