https://twitter.com/burgessev/status/1343968444916629510?s=21 Oh Mitch you really don’t want to win in Georgia do you. Honestly Dems should just vote for all of them to gently caress with him. That commission will accomplish nothing (remember the vote fraud one before) and the money wasted is fine if it gets so much aid out to people in need. Also it’s hard for me to give a crap about Facebook, Google, etc...and social media companies. And I say this as someone whose done work with them...besides if I’m not mistake a bunch of Dems want it gone for different reasons. You can also reinstate it later on next year with revisions. That said it may not even be an issue. https://twitter.com/nielslesniewski/status/1343970051758710784?s=21 Marshal Prolapse fucked around with this message at 18:21 on Dec 29, 2020 |

P sure its the provision that says if I run a hosting service and you upload a bunch of pirated poo poo to the ftp server you rent from me, I am not liable even tho the content lives on my servers. The implications of that are HUGE.

And I say this as someone whose done work with them...besides if I’m not mistake a bunch of Dems want it gone for different reasons. You can also reinstate it later on next year with revisions. Biden essentially wants section 230 modified/gone because it's a "not our fault!!!" shield to the tech companies' moderation policies. Basically, he thinks that the tech companies aren't moderating the content anywhere near enough, so pulling their "publisher" shield would force the companies to seriously moderate. On top of that, conglomerates like Facebook/Google aren't really just publishers anymore, so the shield doesn't make as much conceptual sense as it did before. Donnie wants 230 gone because he doesn't get as many Twitter likes as he used to. But anyways, always be wary about "being able to revise the law in the future". Laws get notoriously sticky once they're fully passed. Lobbyists make a shitton of money keeping those laws as-is for those they benefit. Hell, it was a slog just doing minor tinkering to the Patriot Act.

I'm not convinced that attacking the thing that keeps smaller companies from taking on untenable amounts of risk is the right thing to be attacking. Imo the problem is the tech giants, and the anti-monoply laws that are in drastic need of updating. Maybe if a tech platform hits the level someone might call it a monopoly it automatically becomes a public utility?

pantslesswithwolves posted:The Hotel Harrington, an iconic low-cost tourist hotel in downtown DC a few blocks from the White House, and the adjacent Harry’s Bar, a bar popular with chuds (and unpopular with their black and brown staff who had to wait on them) which served as the Proud Boy’s Secret Clubhouse will be closed for Trump’s last stand and now the chuds are PISSED. As a local, good. gently caress 'em. And Harry's has always been a trash/divey spot, but my friend used to end up there all the time and it wasn't the worst bar considering DC has a ton of over priced bars. Especially in Penn Quarter. It was a okay place before Chuds started showing up (not that I've even been to a bar in the last year). RIP Iron Horse though...gently caress I miss that place.

As a current GA resident, I better be seeing my phone get blown up with GOTV involving mcconnell stopping the 2000$ stimulus. Otherwise whoever runs GOTV for the democrats is a fuckin' waste of time, and should stop loving texting me. Republicans have been slamming my parents phone with "BACK THE BLUE!!!!" and "A NUCLEAR IRAN IS THE WORST THING!" tripe, and all I've gotten is basically the text version of that political cartoon where it shows democrats going "golly gee wouldn't it be wonderful if you voted for us?"

This is hilarious both because Donnie has completed his heel turn against the Republicans and also because we're at the point where any reason is a good reason to put out something in which he can continue to assert the election was stolen.

 I can’t tell if he’s putting the fire to Mitch or helping set up the excuse. I don’t think he knows himself. That said one could interpret it as he wants the votes separately. Look I just want my extra money and I’ll rationalize some dumb poo poo to make me thing I’ll get it.

CRUSTY MINGE posted:So does Bernie filibuster the NDAA now or what? Sorta. Bernie and others are blocking an expedited vote on the NDAA override, denying the unanimous consent to schedule an immediate vote. A veto override vote can't be filibustered like other bills, so the longest Bernie can delay the NDAA override vote is to January 1st. The $600->$2K bill can be filibustered indefinitely under the normal rules, since that bill hasn't technically "passed". Mitch originally said the final NDAA vote would be tomorrow (Wednesday), but looks like Bernie is going to delay it as long as possible until they cut a deal on the $2K vote. My personal guess is that the Republican Senate want that $2K thing killed badly, but are desperate to chuck blame somewhere, so they will tie it to 230/voter fraud bullshit and make Democrats vote that down. That would work in a normal environment, but everyone's already paying attention and won't fall for the "DEMOCRATS BLOCKED $2K" spin that Mitch is attempting.

Also that Trump just asked if they had a Death Wish isn’t going to help too. Mitch is probably terrified that Don will tweet just vote on it separately to get the extra money out.

They're revving up the DEMOCRATS AREN'T LETTING US HELP THE AMERICAN PEOPLE machine with Loeffler and Perdue in GA. We'll see how well it works out for them because my dad says that people who he knows don't normally pay attention to politics and just pulled the handle for (R) are pretty plugged in now and think that the republicans are full of poo poo. Who knows if that translates into votes for a democrat but  If a republican voter is disgusted enough by the republican party to not vote for them, but can't bring themselves to vote for a democrat, that's fine with me. I'd like to have everyone vote but at the same time gently caress Loeffler and Perdue. orange juche fucked around with this message at 21:42 on Dec 29, 2020 |

Problem is right now that Faux News is still tied into trump, and he's screaming about Senate Republicans saying no to 2k, so every second he's doing that makes it harder for the republicans to make the case that "actually dems bad". The right wing media machine is working against them in this, because it is extremely effective if trump wants to use it to drag senate republicans.
