The Senate Republicans absolutely will have to pass tomorrow’s stimulus bill if they want to win the runoffs in Georgia.

:unimpressed:
Trump is holding rallies in Georgia in support of Perdue and Loeffler(she's toast though), they aren't going to lose the MAGA vote. The best chance there is for the Repubs to lose the Senate is to retain that same level of voter turn out from the presidential election but it's insane how uninformed the average american citizen is on non-presidential elections.

Early black turnout is higher than it was for the election. Y’all need to stop being constant pessimists. It’s ok to be optimistic.

I don't think I said anything pessimistic, just realistic
In the face of evidence that early voting favors dems, it is pessimistic. It’s ok to acknowledge the likelihood of a strong turnout by Republican voters without ignoring metrics that are presently favoring Democrats. The doom posting is annoying. That’s all I’m saying.

Why do you want section 230 around?

Biden even wants it gone.

Section 230 was made to increase moderation not reduce it.

"Indeed, this is one key reason why Section 230 was written in the first place. It was done in response to a ruling in the Stratton Oakmont v. Prodigy lawsuit, in which Prodigy, in an effort to provide a "family friendly" environment, did some moderation of its message boards. The judge in that case rules that since Prodigy did moderate the boards, that meant it would be liable for anything it left up."

After the ruling, moderation would make sites liable for user post so site refused to moderate.


Repealing section 230 would not get rid all internet hate speech because there is hate speech that is protected by the 1st amendment. Hate groups would still exist and would sue sites like thecoli for defamation.

Your argument is going to be let me guess social media is bad yadada. You can fix the social media issues surrounding 230 with revisions not repealing the entire section
