Free speech was a close to universally held belief across both parties. Only the fringe among regular folk supported it until very recently (people in power very often love censorship regardless of the party for example the Pentagon Papers showing censorship of information during the Vietnam war that's an example of Right Wing censorship). Now censorship has is more widely accepted in the US by regular people than ever before and unfortunately, that’s just a fact.
That’s NOT censorship. They aren’t deleting tweets based on content (which they were pre-Elon). They are limiting the overall number of tweets an individual account can read to prevent data scraping that was being used to create ultra complex language models for automated AI censorship which Davos openly states they want to roll out. What you said is like saying the public library having a limit on how many books you can check out is censorship.
I think you have a different definition of censorship than I do and I think it's different from the definition in the dictionary. Massive responses to discredit an idea are not censorship (so "cancel culture" isn't censorship). Censorship is the suppression or prohibition of any parts of books, films, news, etc. that are considered obscene, politically unacceptable, or a threat to security.
Language modeling. If you google data scraping and completion of censorship deathstar around AI you will find the answers. They are looking for trending patterns in language and creating models to then censor with AI. Again, Davos/WEF is very open about this. I think most people simply aren't informed about what the wealthiest people are openly stating they are planning for the rest of us. These are the very same entities I was and continue to be adamantly opposed to. Via some very clever sleight of hand, the wealthiest people on Earth have highjacked causes I supported my whole life and use them as Trojan Horses to push their pro-centralization of wealth and power agenda.
No, I'm talking about censorship where government asks big tech to censor articles and then big tech does. Cancel culture and deplatforming are faked grassroots efforts to deplatform people, but that's not what I'm talking about here. I mean we see that going both ways Bud Light and Milo Yiannopolous both got Cancel Cultured by opposing forces.
The biggest issue/concern is when the government 'requests' that the social media company remove or limit certain people or content.
Ah OK well if you trust the richest people on Earth, despite being an avowed Communist I'm not sure what to tell you. Sure, everyone you disagree with are Nazis because the billionaire owned media tells you that. Don't you find it odd that suddenly your ideology is being spewed from the same forces that crushed the left for almost a century, namely the ultra wealthy? I guess not.
Yep that's a great example of the Right being pro-censorship. Turns out the left can do it to, but I get people who disagree with that are crackpot conspiracy theorists according to Barfo. Anyways all of these responses are predictable and sad. What I'm saying will come to a head quite soon and hopefully ya'll won't be cheering if your political enemies are treated like Unionists in Germany in the 1930's, because the framing of vaslty centralized power ironically calls everyone they disagree with Nazis while behaving like...well Germans in the late 1930's. Some see it and many, many don't and a sports forum isn't really the place for elevated political discussions so I will bow out. I thought perhaps pointing a few things out would open eyes. Pretty foolish on my part arrivederci and this time I am truly done with this thread.
Weirdly specific. Almost as if you speak from experience...
If you tweet “women don’t have dicks” and you are banned that’s two acts of free speech happening in chronological order by two private entities. You are not being censored. Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences.
