Fair point.  I wouldn't pin my hopes for freedom on Starlink Man though.

cc

He has done amazing things .. .the quick rocket thing that is already delivering on a regular basis is especially amazing



I guess I'm giving him credit that for him yhat "failure is not an option" on this one, so he will do whatever he has to



Mind you, self-serving Govt' censorship will be the only but a real obstacle that wants only controlled and / or Govt.-Favorable group-think
I really tried to warn y\'all in 49  .. G. Orwell

We thought religious freedom including the freedom to criticize was guaranteed in the Charter. Bill C-10 could challenge that.

And don't forget M-103. Justine and Jagmeet will make that anti blasphemy motion law.

And most important, is ultimately successful stopping progtards from shutting down free speech


Private social media companies are not about 'free speech'.

Technically that is correct.



Point of all this is to alter a platform that does not allow free speech currently to allow all views  ... As it is now there are none short of the conspiracy sites and even they generally do not allow certain mainstream views so are not free either .. and not an alternative for thinking people in the first place

Because there aint real competition with social media, i want them to allow ideas the billionaire progs that own them disagree with.

Private social media companies are not about 'free speech'.  They are about advertising and subscription profit.

The use of the term 'free speech' in this context is specious, at best.  I'd say it's a marketing ploy by an elite billionaire.

In any case,  incitement, defamation, fraud, obscenity, child pornography, fighting words, and threats, are not protected speech in the US.

Opposition to mandates, vaccine efficacy and climate alarmism are no longer protected either.

I know David Suzuki and the entire NDP want those ideas criminalized. They haven't got their way yet.

I wish they would allow almost anything..



There would be exceptions of course such as calls for genocide or advocating crimes against children.

I didn't like Andrew Scheer as leader of the Conservative Party, but I agree with him on this.

Hmmm.  I don't see how the scale should determine right from wrong.  

Also, this site is actually more public than Twitter.  One must have an account to view Twitter, not so here.

It's not even about scale..



These little forums are private clubs of people who've known each other for twenty years, we're not social media platforums..



But, I'll tell you what....



Cronus and I will drop all rules with the exception of the two I mentioned if Facebook drops the fact checking and Twitter lets Donald Trump and his supporters that they banned return.
