AOC better have a full detail of body guards for the next year. She is the most vulnerable government target.

Quick impeachment. Impressive. Very good. I was losing hope.

He's long ago slithered his way down into the swamps of Florida. Good luck getting the Floridians to reject him

Yeah... about that.... we gotta be strict on the rules to strike the fear of God into the trolls

No one here said that. I have repeatedly said that MAGA != all conservatives.

Even when the gov is controlled by Republicans, we still have regulations in place at the federal level against racism, hate speech, terrorist conspiracies, etc. Once the government's policies on policing online platforms are voted upon and set it place, they will be more strict than what we have now, where Twitter, Facebook, and YT are pretty lax with enforcement because they don't want to be labeled censors. Once online norms are established at the federal level, democratically, there will be much less squeamishness in enforcing them. The problem right now for these platforms is that they have no democratically established rules to rely on. So they must make up their own rules which don't have universal buy-in. This will change in the future.

Guys, might not be the best idea to get it in your dick.

@Preety_India Everyone is familiar with Nazis, yet that doesn't stop them from becoming Nazis.

Ain't no mob gonna even reach the building.

That's how Trump supports the troops. By giving them work to defend democracy from terrorists he created If Obama created ISIS, Trump created Ya'll Qaeda The circle is complete.

It's okay, take a vacation, they said. Weeks later, turns on internet: Viking hordes overthrowing democracy.

@Scholar Lucky for you we know both here But we are still chimps.

We have plenty of historical evidence of conspiracy theories and madness of crowds. Somehow that never stops future generations from going mad.

Obviously

Can't even take a vacation without the world imploding under the weight of its own ignorance. Sigh...

@abrakamowse You are a thirsty chimp

What you'll discover is that even on a mountaintop monastery you will get a bunch of gossip and politics and such. Because that's how communities work. Humans gonna hum Roll with it. In the end, the buddha returns to the marketplace and drinks beer and laughs with the idiots. What else is there to do? Sit on a pedestal like a pretentious enlightened douche?

We explained this long ago: https://www.actualized.org/articles/true-vs-false-skepticism Make the distinction between skepticism directed inwardly vs skepticism weaponized outwardly. Conspiracy theories are skepticism weaponized outwardly in order to avoid inward skepticism. See the trick? https://www.actualized.org/articles/distraction It's dead simple, but very sneaky until you're told the trick.

@Elevated Your biology classes forgot to inform you of the Microsoft microchips

Someone famous once said: Tis easier to fool a man than to convince him he has been fooled. So here we are.

And for the ladies, the covid vaccine will make losing wieght effortless. Eat whatever you want and lose weight!

Here's the problem for right-wingers. If Big Tech is regulated by government -- which I am all for -- Trump and his racist MAGA douches would still get banned. Even faster actually. Government has laws against racism. If Twitter was properly regulated by government, Trump would have been banned years ago. With government regulation, platform ToS will become more strict and will be more strictly enforced. Which is bad news for devils, of which the right-wing is full. When the right wing cries about free speech and censorship what they're really crying about is not being able to continue their devilry unobstructed. Nice try, but we see through your bullshit.

@Scholar You see, your expectations for this place are misguided. This is an online social space, not an academic journal. People come here to socialize. Chill out and don't take social spaces so seriously. They will never live up to your pedantic standards. This is so obvious I shouldn't even have to say it. But apparently some folks here need it said. And if you think this place is like Twitter, you haven't spent much time on Twitter.

Haha Good luck with that. That will only make them believe their conspiracy more.
