You know… when rating a plus sized jeans and it turns into how the gays shouldn’t be allowed to marry.
A privileged white guy…
Twitter doesn’t manufacture speech, remember?
Should Twitter be forced to allow Facebook posts?
I am a baker. I don’t make homosexual wedding cakes. You are forcing me to, like forcing Apple to sell Dell computers. That’s you, not me.
What is a homosexual wedding cake? Does that use different frosting? Cake mix? Do they go into a different fridge.
Nah it isn’t important
I don’t think the Baker should be forced to artistically create a homosexual cake. If they denied selling them ANY cake based on the fact that they are homosexual…
I would be against that.
No it doesn’t.
Yes it does, is Twitter exempt?
WuWei:
Jezcoe:
Simple yes or no.
Should Private platforms should be forced to carry content that they do not want to?
Simple yes or no.
Should private businesses be forced to provide services they don’t want to?
No.
But I am a straight white guy so it is likely not going to affect me.
Motte.
There was no need for the caveat. You can’t shame me.
WuWei:
No it doesn’t.

Yes it does what? Are you talking about the specifics of the classes?
A privileged white guy…
Hey. I answered a yes or no question honestly.
You?

It bugs me that people hide behind religion to be terrible to other people… but that is the world that we live in.

The public accommodation laws were brought up as a red herring.
Just as the “taxpayer-subsidized right of ways” were a red herring.
If no such laws exist, conservatives who believe it would still complain their “free speech” was being curtailed on social media.
In other words, they want the baker to have the right to refuse the cake AND force Twitter to allow every single tweet they post. Which of course is contradictory.
And for SURE they don’t believe the “you didn’t build that” defense.
So even if all Libs are hypocrites, so are the conservatives that are making the arguments espoused in this thread.
Yes it does what? Are you talking about the specifics of the classes?
Twitter is required to adhere to public accommodation laws, yes or no?
It bugs me the libs hide behind censorship so they can’t be challenged.

I think the onion is being peeled back a little.
The public accommodation laws were brought up as a red herring.
Just as the “taxpayer-subsidized right of ways” were a red herring.
So libs think they should be censored.
The public accommodation laws were brought up as a red herring.
No they weren’t. None of that is true. The same basis and rationalization in both cases. You can’t begin to make the claim that social media is less of a public accommodation than a bakery.
It bugs me the libs hide behind censorship so they can’t be challenged.
A private platform can host the content that it wants and bar the content that it doesn’t want.
Agree?
If only baker has those same rights.
I think the onion is being peeled back a little.
No you don’t. You think you find a life preserver is a sea of chickens coming home to roost.

Here’s the deal.
You have an actual back and forth conservation one time, and I’ll gladly engage.
You continue this habit you have of forcing accusatory points, and I won’t.
A conservation isn’t a conservation if one person participating in it constructs edifices that defend against having his viewpoints challenged.

Agree?
A private baker can bake the wedding cakes he wants to and not the ones he doesn’t want to.
Agree?
