Don’t know if this was posted but it’s a pretty good visual for what happens to people when they watch Tucker also I forgot just how ducking insane the things he said are until I heard the clips in this again

Gently overwarming the balls is a method of temporary contraception, that said, there's suggestions of a slightly bigger, long-term issue, so I'm willing to let Tucky boy and his fans provide a larger sample size.

This is old now, but Tucker did a great segment on Musk's acquisition of Twitter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGlP9pSfmzM His main rhetorical point is that free speech definitionally benefits the less powerful more than the powerful, because if you have the ability to abridge someone's speech you have more power than them. I think there's more nuance to it than that because people have different levels of power in different contexts, but Twitter is obviously part of the public square so if you control the limits of speech there you have a significant, possibly even unconstitutional amount of power. My favorite part is when he talks about how even though the outcome is good, it's bad that we have to rely on Musk to do this because our system is so dysfunctional. It's not oversimplifying the issue like Musk fanboys do.

Look everybody an idiot in the wild. To who does the first amendment apply? Private and public companies can sensor or restrict speech as much as they want. The conflation is a right wing talking point that basically everybody posting and reading this thread is aware of. Or have you not read the thread before this?

Just the last page to see if that video had been posted or people were talking about it. But the idea that certain social media platforms have become large enough that banning someone from them is a significant abridgement of their ability to speak in the public square is not conservative or right-wing. It just happens to be convenient for them, because they're the ones being banned right now. The ideology behind the idea is much more comfortably leftist (removing excessive power of private corporations for the public good) or liberal (preserving civil liberty). There also is some legal precedent for this, like as Pruneyard Shopping Center v. Robins.

Saying it’s unconstitutional to ban someone from twitter is a right-wing talking point. The constitution has nothing to do with it, but they want to control social media with laws and court rulings so that it serves them. The framing here serves that goal. Saying it’s correct to nationalize all social media should be the left-wing talking point.

Nationalizing Twitter is interesting in and of itself because it's an international platform. Like, the USA would be controlling conversations between Spanish people in Spain, and that's weird.

The absolute free speech argument is tedious at this point: free speech is the right to speak not the right to a platform. By and large when the right talk about free speech they mean freedom from consequences of speech. They care not for what effect that speech has on others, they only care that they should be allowed to say it. This is inherently itself anti free speech. Those with larger followings on platforms can use absolute free speech to direct suppression towards speech they disagree with.

I knew I remembered Dog King from somewhere.Dog King posted:It's impressive that all of the people Rittenhouse shot were white, and he supports BLM, but on social media there are still people saying he's a white supremacist. That's the power of narratives and ideology. Part of the problem with Tucker.... Is Dog King. He can just waltz into a space on the Internet and fish with a clip like this. Then comes the : Why I’m no fascist but the television fascist makes a good point. He then proceeded to attempt to attach the negative reaction to tucker to liberal and left wing. Now Dog is a little fish that I assume most of D&D sees through. He’s probably doing the same on Reddit or in other spaces where it works better. I’d wager some are sophisticated enough to be mining conversations here, we used to have one of those in the religion threads. Can’t remember the user name.

This fuckin' knob... Tucker Carlson took another shot at Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) on Friday night. Calling her “Sandy Cortez” as he always does when referring to the congresswoman, the Fox News host questioned whether she is a woman of color. “She’s a woman of color? Really? How?” Carlson asked, cackling. “She’s a woman who talks about herself incessantly. She’s a narcissist of color. That’s what she really is when she’s not shilling for her donors in the green energy business.” Ocasio-Cortez is of Puerto Rican descent on both sides. https://www.mediaite.com/tv/tucker-carlson-questions-whether-aoc-is-a-woman-of-color-really-how/

And this is apropos: The New York Times dropped a massive three-part investigative report into Tucker Carlson that declares his Fox News program “the most racist show in the history of cable news.” The deep-dive story by reporter Nick Confessore was published Saturday morning, and details — in the headline’s words — “How Tucker Carlson Stoked White Fear to Conquer Cable.” In one section, Confessore — a Times reporter and MSNBC contributor — describes a meeting with Rupert Murdoch after Carlson weathered controversy over his remark that undocumented immigrants are making America “poorer and dirtier and more divided.” https://www.mediaite.com/news/ny-ti...-of-cable-news/

How is, "law" a liberal thing versus a right wing thing? What laws would be violated if Tucker were purged instantly from all privately held platforms of all types for even the most absurd of reasons? Please tell me what laws you are worried this would run afoul of, in detail.

Clarste posted:Not to defend the troll, but I thought the implication was that the right doesn't even pretend to care about the rule of law. Correct, but the right is also loathe to admit it in so many words and instead couches it in vague and incoherent "free speech" garbage as though their dogshit opinions and paranoiac turtle mentality are a stand-in for morality. I just want to know exactly what case law and precedent has Dog King so worried about millionaire New York socialite and trust find to the Swanson fortune Tucker Swanson Carlson being unfairly silenced or why said silencing wouldn't be just or appropriate For example if Tucker Carlson created an account here I would immediately submit a ban for them, what argument would hold weight to prevent me from doing so?

Dog King posted:This is old now, but Tucker did a great segment on Musk's acquisition of Twitter: There is vastly more to it than that, and has been through time. Those with power, and especially wealth, can afford platforms on a scale that no average member of the populace can even really wrap their minds around. Musk is actually doing a great job of saying the quiet part loudly because he's new money and doesn't have the connections to apply pressure other than throwing cash at it, or the social skills to know when to shut his mouth (as the SEC has demonstrated). That said, Twitter is not the public square. Twitter is a private entity. The First Amendment doesn't require a private entity to give you a platform or refrain from censoring your speech on their platform. It requires that the government not censor your speech. Unless someone quietly nationalized Twitter in the last six hours, the First Amendment has nothing to do with them.
