Alternatives To State-run Social Media: >>>/prepare/20 | https:// archive.fo/53IjY https:// web.archive.org/web/20181219024824/https:// 8ch.net/prepare/res/20.html
Republican lawmaker Joe Gruters (R) has introduced a bill to protect free speech on social media and fine Big Tech a minimum of $75,000 if they delete or censor a user’s political speech.
The law would only apply to social media firms with “more than 75 million subscribers” which are “open to the public.”
Information Liberation reports: The bill also prohibits large social media sites from citing so-called “hate speech” as a justification for political and religious censorship and authorizes the Attorney General to “bring a civil cause of action … on behalf of a social media website user who resides in this state and whose religious speech or political speech has been censored…”
The bill makes clear it would allow social media sites to censor “calls for immediate acts of violence,” “obscene or pornographic” material, that which “entices criminal conduct” and that which “involves minors bullying minors.”
Don't think I don't know censorship when I see it! CLEAR AS FUCKING DAY NOW!!!!!!!!

anti-slidden!
Michael Barnes
Stop trying to censor the news!!!
Angel Ortiz
legit
Thomas Gray
At least someone is doing SOMETHING, or trying to.
Not that this has a chance passing because we all know most politicians don't give a SHIT about our free speech. (I actually get the feeling many on this board don't either).
Christian Anderson
Pretty fucking good, but my only concern is " it would allow social media sites to censor “calls for immediate acts of violence,” “obscene or pornographic” material, that which “entices criminal conduct” and that which “involves minors bullying minors.”" I mean, they're basically given free reign anyways, but it doesn't completely protect speech. It can just somewhat keep blue checkmarks from being blue checkmarks

Your salty tears are SO Delicious! I'l slurp them up later, at my leisure, with some fava beans and a nice chianti.
You are an asshole. I wouldn't have to bump my own threads if they were not DELIBERATELY sliden. Ask the BO, looks like he had to get rid of some of your spam threads that were being obnoxiously bumped to the top 24/7.
Don't think I don't know what you assholes are up to.
Josiah Ramirez
Bah, they already censor those and pretty much anything else they don't appreciate today. Holding them liable for one kind of censorship won't do anymore harm than they already have done.
Matthew Gray
Ahh, conservatards.
Matthew Nelson
That would be no more retarded than what we have to deal with already. And no one even mentioned banning breastfeeding anyway. You did, for what reason I don't even know.
Leo Ward
What a fucking good-for-nothing goon sliding this kind of news.
Imagine being a low life trying to censor a thread covering censorship.
Jayden Diaz
There's already a SCOTUS ruling that would apply to that. Too bad lower courts are juggling any relevant cases around preventing them from getting to the SC.
I'm willing to bet that Killcen has never snorted a big fat line of ketamine in a chill-room at a rave, gone into a K-Hole, and ended up liquid dancing with three hot as shit 16 year old lil' groover rave girls at 5 AM.
Jose Gutierrez
This place seems to attract them like bees to pollen.
Likely JTRIG types no doubt about it anymore.
Lucas Lee
I'm willing to bet you are a low life loser who has no ethics or morals and will die due to bad karma from something others warned about who you never paid attention to! So be it.
Hunter Thomas
Who's killcen? I don't see anyone using that id.

These people won't even let me have sex with farm animals. They want me to waste all my time working to have my own, but that will never happen because it's all going to waste. I can never get my time back no compensation can return my time. It's a scam. I don't care about anyone's free speech because freedom of speech isnt the only freedom covered under the first amendment. If I'm not allowed to have sex with farm animals then freedom if speech is worth nothing.
These people just want to allow their anti-animal sex buddies to call for the law to commit violence against me over social media for my attractions. Theyre using the law as a loophole around calling for immediate acts of violence, because nobody views "lawful acts" as a tool for violence. If the law is on their side then so is their ability to commit violence and I will have no choice but to call for and the commit violence on them
These people are trash, hypocrite, two faced and should be killed. They should seriously be killed and I don't have to cower behind the law to say it.
Cameron Diaz
Good! news bump Social media, as with the rest of the Internet, is not a safe space
Dominic Thompson
If course it is safe if you belong to an abusive majority. It is perfectly safe if you abuse people under the public's skewed beliefs of doing good. People can literally walk over, neglect, and call for violence against other people as long as their requests look lawful but the violence is a secret.
People won't let me have sex with farm animals. Why? Because abusive people with lies and law have more safety and a bigger voice online than I do.
Jordan Reyes
Nobody knows and nobody cares about how much harder I have to work for literally nothing.
