The highlighted part covers it. Glad you’re on board!
I wasn’t actually asking for advice. But I do think the Swedish idea is brilliant. It offers protection from your cancel culture tyrants. But I am fine with your disagreement. I expected it. Anything else?
[quote] Last week, the Expressen newspaper revealed that a local SD politician had written about “the Jewish plague” on a closed Facebook group, and argued that “Hitler was not wrong about the Jews.”
David Baas, the story’s author, says it is normal for SD activists to post such racist comments in closed forums and on the Russian social media site VK.
“They’ve got two faces: On their public Facebook profiles they don’t write these things, but on VK they write something very different,” he told DW.

Not the best horse to back.
Do you agree with my stipulation? We would also need to allow my “non illegal” speech in a Walmart in any way I want. I should be able to take a bullhorn or jump on the PA system to say whatever I want… as long as it isn’t illegal.
You good with that?
Nope. You are not entitled to use the property of a private business for your own amusement. They paid for it. They own it. If you ask them if you can sing a little Bob Marley over the P.A. and they say yes. Then enjoy!
Do you back this horse? What in this statement do you find to be offensive?
“Only illegal content should be deleted from social media. Illegal threats, for example, are just as illegal if they occur on the internet or on the street. Suspensions or removal of content with reference to crime should be subject to review by a Swedish court,”
Yeah… it is being proposed by Neo NAZIs who want to force private platforms to carry their ideas for free.
Make your own damn platform and they can say whatever they want and exclude whatever they want.
It really is that simple.

Is Twitter not a private business?
Okay. We disagree. I love the idea, you hate it. I’m fine with that.
It’s really that simple.
My opinion protects private property rights… you?
Should this board be forced to accept posts extolling the virtues of white supremacy? Or posts denigrating Hannity?
Oh. I see where you’re going with this. Well played!
Private business are not allowed to discriminate against, race, religion, age, sexual orientation and many other reasons. They should not be allowed to be the thought police either. Free thought is the next civil rights issue.

Flag it. Definitely flag it!
Political opinions are not a protected class.
So we should also be allowed to carry a bullhorn into Walmart and say non illegal speech? Or use the PA system?
Ok. So you believe this board, a private entity, can and should remove posts it deems offensive. Do I have that correct?
Too me it’s a civil rights issue. You have zero chance of convincing me to accept your point of view. And I have zero chance of changing your mind. So where are we going from here?
It isn’t a civil rights issue.
You have the right to free speech.
You don’t have the right to insist that someone carry your speech on their private platform. It’s even a dumber insistence when they do it for free.
I would be fine with this board using the following standard.
“Only illegal content should be deleted from social media. Illegal threats, for example, are just as illegal if they occur on the internet or on the street. Suspensions or removal of content with reference to crime should be subject to review by a Swedish court,”
