  1. Cody Lott  : You're missing the point. The point is "Who decides what constitutes hate speech?" You? Or me? The President? Congress? We already have laws against inciting or threatening.violence thru speech, and that's enough. What the LEFT are doing, right now, is broadening the term "Hate Speech" to mean virtually anything with which they disagree, shutting down ALL who are not 100% in agreement with whatever the establishment-left are peddling, night and day.

  2. Janusha  : As the ancient Chinese observed: ORDER ARISES SPONTANEOUSLY. People are already growing noticeably more resistant to Internet trolls. More and more you see trolls start their shit, and people just talk around and over them, just like parents talk over their kids. "Let the grown-ups talk" is about all I'll give a troll, beyond a thumbs-down and a big ignore. Same deal with the chaos of information bombarding us. We, as intelligent consumers, check out what people are saying and find voices that are more truthful, reasonable, and even entertaining (like JIMMY!). Over time, the good stuff gains more followers. Sure, the nutcases get their followers, also. But that's OK. The world isn't perfect. Some people are just dead set on fucking up, and there's nothing you can do about it until they commit a crime against persons or property. Or at least that's how it should work. But now we've got Speech Police and we're a hair's width away from Thought Police, because, after all, we're all super-duper racists, even if we don't know it, right? Don't like what CNN's got to say? Well then, obviously, you're a racist, even though you don't think so. That's how this shit works.

  3. Apollo Sun  : Jimmy's sincere, and he gets a lot of stuff. But he's essentially socialist on domestic economic policy which is either madness or ignorance on his part.

  4. TwoHappyChildrenFarm  : Nobody better than Jimmy, when Jimmy's right. He's a real thorn in my side on stuff that he's got wrong. Like Jon Stewart. You disagree on a bunch of stuff, agree on some stuff, but you need to know what he's got to say, regardless, because if there IS a micrometer-wide hole in your opposing viewpoint, those guys like that will drive a fuckin' truck through it. Worst of all, make you laugh while they do it. Bastards.

  5. DreamingFlurry  : Democracies are all too prone to exactly the problems you brought up. That's why the U.S. is a REPUBLIC. Even if the majority gets it wrong, there are guaranteed rights to life, liberty and property that even the MAJORITY may not infringe. People try to gaslight you, and confuse these simple principles with all kinds of double-talk (sophistry), misdefinitions, distortions and contortions of the language, itself, to justify throwing OUT those principles, even when they're the main principles behind our unprecedented freedom and prosperity.

  6. Reeferman420NL : Disagree. Changing the law to clamp down on these so-called platforms is what these platforms and their owners WANT. They're the biggest boys on the block. REGULATE them, and in about a New York Minute, they'll have the regulators in their hip pockets, assuming people from their companies aren't appointed to RUN those agencies! This is what ALWAYS happens when dumb-ass Progressives THINK they're stickin' it to the man. The man laughs all the way to the bank, assuming he's not escorting you to the klink.

  7. They're coming for you, next, Jimmy. Be afraid. Alex Jones was just the low-hanging fruit.

  8. Did anybody notice the instant banning of Alex Jones was done on the same day by companies who all got their start from government grants and/or enjoy enormous tax breaks not available to the rest of us? Apple, YouTube, FaceBook... All those outfits are government-sponsored and they do the bidding of their masters. Not that it's any hardship doing so, since their masters GUARANTEE them a competitive advantage over anybody who dares to challenge them in our so-called free market. It ain't a free market and it SHOULD be. Just the rich and powerful are never content with what they have. They always want more, and to the extent that they CAN manipulate government to their advantage, they WILL manipulate government to their (short-term) advantage, which is why we all need to convert and become Libertarians, because only Libertarians understand that the real answer is to NOT PUT GOVERNMENT IN CHARGE OF ANYTHING, IF YOU CAN AVOID IT. Bad enough we agreed, way back when, to let them defend our borders. They can't do THAT, apparently, but they're eager to fail at everything else, too! And we LET them! We ASK them! (After days, months and years of non-stop propaganda from media who SHAMELESSLY shill for establishment neocons and neolibs, 24/7, 365. Want to know what the power structure wants? Just check CNN.

  9. Knocked it out of the park. If FB is a publisher, they can cull their content any way they wish, AND bear the consequences (lawsuits!) when they get it wrong. The ONLY way they can avoid bearing full responsibility for ALL content is if they are the PLATFORM they claim to be. If they're a PLATFORM they can't shut ANYbody down. Is the phone company responsible for YOUR conversations? No. They're just a platform. You'd be outraged if they listened to your conversations and decided what conversations they would allow and which they wouldn't. Alex Jones just relays information. Some good. Some bad. I don't think he ever deliberately puts out bad info, but he definitely will rush to get stuff that comes across his desk out in the public square. When it's crap, call him out - and many do. But sometimes, he's 6 months or a year ahead of the wave, with last year's debunked story being confirmed, reluctantly, by mainstream media when something happens that forces them to cover it. Alex has been pushing pedophile ring stories, predicting mass arrests of human traffickers and sex traffickers. Now we come to find out that some really big names have been falling like dominoes. 4,000 arrests and counting. And a lot of illegal border crossers are MAJOR human traffickers. Our Southern Border is the main pipeline for human trafficking into our country. Now let's go down the rabbit hole a little farther and ask ourselves "Why the big push to abolish ICE?" While they're busting a major child sex ring, Antifa and their fellow travelers are out front, PROTESTING ICE. Coincidence? Maybe. But ICE is our main weapon against the international sex and human trafficking trade on the North American continent. And did anybody notice how quickly the Schumers, Pelosis and every dumb-ass liberal took up the refrain AGAINST ICE at about exactly the same time? And not 2 years after making impassioned speeches about reforming and IMPROVING our immigration enforcement? Nobody gave a FUCK about children separated from their parents under the previous 2 administrations. Hell, they even used pictures of such children under the Obama administration to demonize Trump! It's like Global Warming. As soon as the hockey stick is proven to be a fabrication and that global temperatures have leveled-off, they pivot OVERNIGHT to "Climate Change," with all the same stupid policy proposals on CO2 reductions that EVERYONE - EVEN THE PROPOSERS - admit will have negligible effect on climate. And all the policy proposals are anti-U.S., anti the poor and weak (the proposals invariably jack up the cost of energy, which hurts our weakest citizens, which MIGHT be acceptable if it weren't perfectly well known that the policies just push money around (into Al Gore's pockets, in particular), to no real purpose!

  10. I can believe in climate change and still not like your proposed solution. But to the mainstream establishment left, that makes me a global warming - I mean "climate change" - denier. Fer fuck's sake.

  11. Which of course makes me a white supremacist fascist. Fuckin' people don't even know what a fascist is, although they could see one easy enough if they looked in the mirror for more than just to see how cool and mysterious their 18th piercing of their 50th tattoo makes them look.

  12. Sorry. I've got too much metal under the skin and scars on top of the skin to want to add to it with metal and ink on top of my skin. I don't need a picture on my body to prove to the world that I've been through something. 'Fact, I'm kind of embarrassed by the scars and twisted limbs. Just seems weird. "Why would someone do that to a perfectly good body?" I ask. All the metal touching my skin does so from underneath, at great cost in pain and disfigurement.
