I will be sure not to vote for any Democrat from the 1800’s
Modern day Swedish Democrats…
Should fascist speech and philosophy be repressed in a liberal society?
Nah- it should be identified for what it is.
When it’s repressed, it just goes underground and bursts back in spectacular and unpredictable ways.
Twitter can carry any speech that it wants.
It can even apply it’s standards unevenly.
Their playground… their rules.
People don’t like it… make their own playground.
Public accommodation has been conditioned.
Should fascist speech and philosophy be repressed in a liberal society?
Especially if it is not illegal? And if it is not illegal, should it be made so?
They are free to publish their own stuff on their own platforms.
JayJay:
I’m pretty sure my ability to research matters exceeds yours.
It’s been proved many times on these boards.
But thanks for your concern.

Competition? No- I was simply telling you whose researching capabilities I turst.
Hint- you stopped at Wikipedia and went no further. Wikipedia is a starting point for research. It’s not a good ending point.
My friendly tip for the day. ![]()

JayJay:
No question that happens.
But many in the Swden Democrats actually ARE Neo-Nazis…the party was founded by them.
And the Democrat Party here was founded by racists. So what?
I will be sure not to vote for any Democrat from the 1800’s
Modern day Swedish Democrats…
Byrd didn’t hold office in the 1800s. Jbiden is a racist and you voted for him for President.
Not a nice try.

Nope. There is no public accommodation in when it comes to publishing speech.
Never has been.
This whole idea that “someone else has to publish my ideas for free” nonsense is really really new.
Imagine making this argument 15 years ago.
Should a private platform be forced to carry their speech if they don’t want to?
If they’re talking any federal subsidies or federal contracts.

Never voted for Byrd.
I don’t know who Jbiden is.

Is this the time someone mentions Pruneyard again?

The world is upside down.
Exactly!!! Now you’re starting to catch on. In today’s world, cancelling free speech is called “freedom.” And promoting free speech it is called “fascism.”
You nailed it. Upside down.

Viktor Orban complaining about suppression of “free speech”
Yeah… it’s that stupid.
Funny…can’t excape neo-Nazi tag.
That’s precisely what left-wing fascist are doing…tagging their opponents as Nazi to push their on fascist agenda.
WuWei:

Yet repression is what is being defended here. I agree with you. I wouldn’t repress critical theory or anthropogenic global warming either, despite the intent behind both.
In a liberal society, “bad” ideas are addressed out in the open. Deplatforming, unpersoning, canceling of culture is anathema to liberalism. It quickly becomes fascism itself.
Win the debate.
Viktor Orban complaining about suppression of “free speech”
Yeah… it’s that stupid.
Why?

It’s not upside down, it’s Marcuse.
Win the debate.
When you label your opponents as Fascists, racists, sexists, and homophobes, it renders your opponent as unworthy of debate. Only worthy of cancellation.
It’s all they have…while carrying out their own fascist policies.
As they currently are, they don’t cover political speech. A public option can meet this need.
