newworldafro was crying over these nazis getting de-platformed
I Keep the Same Energy on Speech, Censorship, 1st Amendment, because the
principle of free speech outweighs any opposing rebuttals by miles
I'm going to repeat my stance on speech for the 50-11th time, which has not wavered.
Censorship of people you don't like leads to censorship of people you do like or are ok with.
What part of this don't you comprehend?
The other day Facebook/Twitter simultaneously removed 800 pages/accounts, they weren't just conservative pages they included liberal pages too like anti-police brutality pages/accounts.
There are a lot of Black Israelite and Louis Farrakhan supporters
or at the minimum listeners on the coli. Going down this continued road of censorship of
"harsh speech"....these specific Black/African American voices will be eliminated from Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc. After this Pittsburgh situation, it's obvious any critical speech of Khazreal or any related history lessons or perspectives are being considered for censorship on platforms. Gab, which is just a social media site, not an alt-right site is just on the Summer Jam Screen now, and being used as an example. Listening to "aggressive speech" does not equate to violence, unless you are literally threatening someone. Explaining truths that aren't in the mainstream media does not equate to someone committing violence. Yet, this is the justification being thrown around to continue to censor more voices, left, right, and independent. They are going to get to the point, where they are going to whip up Congress to
"act".........and that means literally filtering the web. If yall can't see these chess moves, it's because you want to be dense.
Senator Mark Warner already has a bill ready to go where he wants internet ID...that's right ..ID verification required to access the Internet.
Is that what you want?
In another thread, they were talking about Bolsanaro's win in Brazil as bad for the Amazon rainforest, because he apparently has a Trump mindset, where it's moneymaking and deregulation over science, environment, and sustainable development. It sounds like he would support cutting down every tree in the Amazon like a maniac.
Well guess what? This year, the Brazilian government approved an internet censorship law. Which means Bolsanoro has a new tool to control the flow of information, especially, for instance silencing voices that want to protect the Anazon rainforest and it's importance to indigenous people, plant/animal species, and the entire globe. So now Bolsanoro can censor voices he doesn't like, and the same type of stuff is happening in Europe, the U.S., China, and around the world.
This is bigger than the U.S., censorship of speech, content or substance be damned unless it's literal threats of violence, is harmful to all of us.
I can't explain my position on speech better than that
