If we're to be the champions of free speech, you're fine with silencing your political opponents? Sounds a lot like what the libs do. Reflection required ahead.
The long running factual situation is that American conservatives get cancelled while leftists and terrorists get to say whatever they want with zero repercussions.
All thats ever been wanted is equal speech with the American left and keeping actual terrorists off the platform. You know this so quit being an obtuse dumbass.
Who gets to define "actual terrorists"? The corrupt and crooked government?
For all I know those people were the same victims of cancel culture as all the other conservatives. They just have a slightly different viewpoint from you, why shouldn't their opinion be voiced just as evenly?
Whether intentionally or not, you're significantly misrepresenting my point.

Advocating committing murder may just step slightly over a line. Advocating different political views doesn't.

One of the claims made in this thread are that "terrorists don't deserve free speech". Using the broad term of "terrorist" as an explanation of who deserves free speech and who doesn't simply paves the path for the government to use that broad description to silence their party's opposition.
Are terrorists only those who murder others? Does it include their neighbors? Family members? One poster said anyone who supports them - what does that support consist of? Who determines the severity of the contribution?
If you agree that advocating different political and religious views doesn't merit being silenced, then as long as the member hasn't partaken in any crimes themselves it should be perfectly fine to use Twitter for recruiting.

You're doing exactly what I said...reductio ad absurdum...
Committing or advocating crimes is NOT free speech that's allowed by the SCOTUS. Recruiting people to commit crimes is also not allowed as free speech. Ever heard of RICO laws?
Providing support to people committing crimes is also not allowed...it's a ****ing crime in and of itself.
There ARE limits to free speech...but they should be few and far between...and that is something the SCOTUS 100% agrees with.
This is NOT rocket surgery.
This is a foolish, juvenile viewpoint. I can tweet "everyone should speed, speed limits are pointless", which is advocating for breaking a law - the speed limit. Will the cops be breaking down my door shortly thereafter? No, because it is still considered free speech.Quote:

Take the classic "you can't shout fire in a movie theater" myth. Any idea what case that is derived from? Probably not, but I'll give you a hand.
It comes from Schenck v. United States and the conclusion is that advocating for draft dodging is equivalent to shouting fire in a theater. That case was overthrown by Brandenburg v. Ohio, which determined that imminent lawless action must be at risk of being incited. No imminent lawless action, you're well within the bounds of free speech.
I suggest doing a modicum of research before you claim such nonsense as fact. And maybe figure out what a RICO is, lol.

Really?
If we're to be the champions of free speech, you're fine with silencing your political opponents? Sounds a lot like what the libs do. Reflection required ahead.
The long running factual situation is that American conservatives get cancelled while leftists and terrorists get to say whatever they want with zero repercussions.
All thats ever been wanted is equal speech with the American left and keeping actual terrorists off the platform. You know this so quit being an obtuse dumbass.
Who gets to define "actual terrorists"? The corrupt and crooked government?
For all I know those people were the same victims of cancel culture as all the other conservatives. They just have a slightly different viewpoint from you, why shouldn't their opinion be voiced just as evenly?

Read through the thread and think the ad homs are definitely necessary. The "well you want to ban isis so you're a hypocrite" angle is some half baked "everything is relative there are no absolutes" post modern deflection bull***** You should feel intellectual embarrassment for positing that we have to take free speech to its absolute extreme to avoid hypocrisy. There's a sweet spot between 4 Chan sewer where illegal action is planned and the current leftist thought police model.

You support free speech so you support terrorists advocating killing people.
Advocating committing murder may just step slightly over a line. Advocating different political views doesn't.
HTH
One of the claims made in this thread are that "terrorists don't deserve free speech". Using the broad term of "terrorist" as an explanation of who deserves free speech and who doesn't simply paves the path for the government to use that broad description to silence their party's opposition.
Are terrorists only those who murder others? Does it include their neighbors? Family members? One poster said anyone who supports them - what does that support consist of? Who determines the severity of the contribution?
If you agree that advocating different political and religious views doesn't merit being silenced, then as long as the member hasn't partaken in any crimes themselves it should be perfectly fine to use Twitter for recruiting.

You're doing exactly what I said...reductio ad absurdum...
Committing or advocating crimes is NOT free speech that's allowed by the SCOTUS. Recruiting people to commit crimes is also not allowed as free speech. Ever heard of RICO laws?
Providing support to people committing crimes is also not allowed...it's a ****ing crime in and of itself.
There ARE limits to free speech...but they should be few and far between...and that is something the SCOTUS 100% agrees with.
This is NOT rocket surgery.This is a foolish, juvenile viewpoint. I can tweet "everyone should speed, speed limits are pointless", which is advocating for breaking a law - the speed limit. Will the cops be breaking down my door shortly thereafter? No, because it is still considered free speech.Quote:

Take the classic "you can't shout fire in a movie theater" myth. Any idea what case that is derived from? Probably not, but I'll give you a hand.
It comes from Schenck v. United States and the conclusion is that advocating for draft dodging is equivalent to shouting fire in a theater. That case was overthrown by Brandenburg v. Ohio, which determined that imminent lawless action must be at risk of being incited. No imminent lawless action, you're well within the bounds of free speech.
I suggest doing a modicum of research before you claim such nonsense as fact. And maybe figure out what a RICO is, lol.
And completely misrepresenting what I stated.
I give you 1 internet point for the inanity...
You claim that "providing support" to "people committing crimes" is illegal, which is (intentionally, I'm sure) vague and also doesn't represent the country we live in.
b) ISIS ****ing advocates beheading people. That's not exactly vague.
c) YOU started arguing that ISIS should be allowed back "Can't wait to see all the ISIS accounts reinstated, for freeze peach of course." Member that? Pepperidge Farms members...
d) Your entire argument started out as reductio ad absurdum...and you haven't backed off of it, but the goalposts ARE in a different stadium, now.
b) So as long as they don't explicitly advocate for breaking a law (which is still free speech, but let's pretend it isn't - you conveniently forgot to address that, but it's alright to feel embarrassed).
c) That isn't an argument, it's a question.
d) Yawn. Goalposts haven't moved. Initial pointing of the hypocrisy behind "Free speech for all only means free speech for those you agree with" - still hasn't been debated, only proven in this thread.
I've already come to terms with the fact that you won't be addressing most of what I just wrote, but figured I'd get it out there for clarity's sake![]()

It's alright, clearly the conclusion of this thread is what I've mentioned several times - you don't want less censorship, you just want censorship of ideas you disagree with, based on some arbitrary guidebook designed by people you agree with.
