mydude,

House passes antisemetism bill so they can jail any one they don’t like by labeling them antisemites, instead of just name-calling them racist, far-right, misogynist, sexist…

Google Photos will soon more easily let you block someone's face from Memories (9to5google.com)

One of the best features of Google Photos is the app’s ability to show old photos as a “Memory,” but sometimes showing a specific person isn’t what you want. Now, Google Photos is preparing to make it easier to hide someone’s face from Memories.

mydude,

This reminds me about black mirror. Person blocking.

mydude,

Will the owner-class use these to kill desperate people on their property, or will the poor suddenly have capital to buy these for fun? What will our future be? Stay tuned.

mydude,

Next thing you know, he will send a strongly worded letter.

mydude,

He could legislate, that’s his job. Introduce actual legislation to reveal who supports genocide. That would be a good start.

mydude,

Ok then. Where in this article does it say that he even tried to legislate?

mydude,

Better not do anything then. Just strongly spoken words or strongly worded letters… That will probably get things done.

mydude,

How will you idea of not doing anything get anything done? Virtue signaling does nothing.

mydude,

Viking_hippie already answered that “As for revealing who supports genocide, at last vote it was everyone in the Senate except him and 3 others and everyone in the House except the Squad and about a dozen others IIRC.”. He could do it again. Hammer legislation so it constantly reveals who support genocide.

mydude,

Ok, so what’s your brilliant answer then?

mydude,

Also, do you have any links for you last paragraph? I can’t find relevant articles about it.

mydude,

Free speech used to be a left wing key-stone. Why? Because left wing is all policy that benefits the 99%. How can masses organize without free speech? You can’t, that’s why the 1% (owner class) has tried everything for decades to stifle it. They are gradually succeeding, because todays ‘left wing’ commentary aren’t for free speech. You are for free speech if you are willing to fight for all speech, even the speech you don’t like, and only then are you for free speech. It is that simple, and still so many don’t get it…

mydude,

“You can be a strong proponent of free speech and support stronger regulation and penalties for legitimately dangerous speech.” This is an oxymoron. If you support stronger regulation and penalties for legitimately dangerous speech, then my question to you would be; Dangerous to whom?

My guess is you will say minorities. Remember, the 1% is a minority too. They will use all these specially carved out protections for themselves, when time comes.

Also if you think misinformation, the biggest source for misinformation is the governments, number two is the legacy media. Far, far behind are posts on twitter, facebook, tiktok, youtube, rumble.

“I don’t see a lot of left wingers coming out against free speech”, well this is because it’s easy to say you are for free speech, it’s harder to defend it in a room full of people not agreeing with unpopular speech. If you only defend speech that is easy to defend then it’s not principled, it’s just a hobby.

“but I see a lot of right wingers dehumanizing others and directly calling for violence, then trying to pretend that’s free speech”, dehumanization of others is never a good look, but since they were allowed to express themselves, you know better where they stand, and not to support them. If they were censored, you wouldn’t know their stance. “directly calling for violence, then trying to pretend that’s free speech”, how did Bernie start all his speeches? “Are you ready for a revolution?”, that revolution never came because he was never ready for a violent revolution. He had the protection to say it, but he never did. He’s been in politics for too long, and knows the consequences for those words.

I will fight for the right of anyone to say those words, because a revolution might turn violent, and not being allowed to talk about it freely is nonsensical.

mydude,

Freedom of expression is just a bigger umbrella that also incorporates freedom of speech.

mydude, (edited )

“I’m fully ok with people I don’t agree with stating their opinions. It’s only when they want to spew hatred and actually do damage with their speech that I don’t like. Free speech is totally fine, but hate speech and slander are not. I don’t like when people that have the same opinion as me spew hate and lies either. Hate and lies have nothing to do with being free. At that point you are trying to restrict other people from being free.”, we also have hate speech restriction laws in Norway. I don’t agree with them, because they are specially carved out exemptions that was meant to protect vulnerable minorities, however they can also be applied to benefit the 1%, and they will. There are probably already examples of this.

“Hate and lies have nothing to do with being free.”, here you are putting hate and lies in the same boat. I have already expressed a pushback against hate. Lies are nothing new. Lies have been printed in newspapers as fact for many many years. Politicians has been lying ‘since the dawn of time’. The number one source for mis- and dis-information (unintentional and intentional lying) is the government, number two is the legacy media, and far far behind is twitter, facebook, tiktok, youtube, rumble and such.

Who do you think decides what are lies? The government and the cia (twitterfiles supplied the receipts for this) They censored everything they didn’t like under the guise of “malinformation”.

“I was the first person censored by the Biden administration. They had to invent a new word called ‘malinformation’… Malinformation is information that is true but is inconvenient to the government!” - RFK jr.

I’ll finish with a quote: “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” - William Casey, CIA Director 1981-1987

mydude,

‘security’ concerns, in quotes… Like they’re crazy. They’re not.

mydude,

Single word quotation is called scare quotes; grammarly.com/…/quotation-marks-around-a-single-w…

mydude,

stratistimes.com isn’t korean. The journalists used scare quotes, like the koreans are crazy, they’re not crazy. But I personally don’t trust samsung either, usa favours them too much. Something doesn’t smell right.

mydude,

When will people revolt? Protest at the homes of these asshole-politicians.
