Let’s be honest: If Conservatives wanted absolute zero censorship, we would go to the dark web. But we have morals. We don’t want to see Cheese Pizza (if you know what I mean) or to see people offing their lives on camera for likes, or to see different amounts of illegal drugs on the Black Market. We hate that stuff and wish people would follow the law.

Freedom of speech is not black and white and people use this fact to justify unnecessary censorship on their behalf. They will accuse the other side of hate speech when they state an unpopular opinion. The thing with freedom of the press and other text speech is, tone can be difficult to decipher, because there is no non-verbals. Also, you have to take into account the philosophy behind the Constitution and each of its amendments. We already saw some limits to the 1A when it was decided you can’t yell fire in a movie theater.

With freedom comes responsibility. You have the freedom to do something, but you are not free from the consequences of your behavior.

I hate how the Left takes a law that is so well-spelled and twists it. Or they take a vaguely-written one and exploit loopholes. It irks me.

Oh not the fire in a theater thing, it is not illegal to yell fire in a theater. Nobody is prohibited from doing it. There could be consequences for doing so if it was malicious and untrue but there is no prior restraint.

My point is, you can’t cause public disturbance or hurt anyone. You can’t threaten the president, or harass anyone. That’s where I’m going.

And my point is, you can’t outlaw yelling fire in a theater.

That’s why telling fire in a theater isn’t illegal.

The illegal part is inciting panic, especially if the panic results in injury to persons because of a stampede.

Yelling fire in a theater that is actually on fire is perfectly legal.

No need to get snappy.

No need to get snappy.

Well, that’s probably why I didn’t

zantax:

Well,…

Once again. There’s no need to be rude and snap at me.

“Your favorite President”

His followers eat that up

PurpnGold · 2022-02-16T02:24:53.735Z

Oh and a literal direct copy of Twitter

So a place to cancel cancel culture will be cancelling people.

You seem confused, Donald Trump Jr explained this will be a safe place where everyone is given the opportunity to freely express their viewpoints….

Woke libs want to be the only ones talking.

All these other ones look like Twitter, actually. If you look at GETTR, looks pretty much like that too. I think maybe Parler as well, or close.

W_and_C · 2022-03-27T02:25:36.689Z

This is not going well.

margaretms2 · 2022-03-31T21:12:47.957Z

What’s the strategy here?

Washington Examiner – 30 Mar 22

Truth Social saw 93% decrease in sign-ups in first month: Report

The viability of former President Donald Trump's social network may be in doubt, according to new data.

FreeAndClear · 2022-03-31T21:25:30.870Z

It was a honeypot for libs!!!

PurpnGold · 2022-03-31T21:34:25.980Z

I guess people just can’t quit Twitter, now can they

margaretms2:

What’s the strategy here?

My guess is a combination of a money siphon and a huge “on paper” loss for tax purposes.

Retail investors will be left holding the empty bag while the architects of the SPAC walk away with the money.

Might be why the technology side is struggling. Capital siphoned to founders instead of utilized for a proper build out.

margaretms2 · 2022-03-31T21:46:51.860Z

Whoa. This explanation is so lucid and sane—what message board am I on?

DisturbedGuy · 2022-03-31T22:04:28.319Z

The TRUTH is it will be an epic failure like many of Trump’s businesses.

Trump steaks
Trump beverages
Trump casinos
Trump airline
Trump magazine
Trump university
Trump vodka

So much losing BIGLY!
