Too much cendor and too much freedom to governments for idiotic law

TH-cam runs cover for this admin also.

[@timcurtis4041]

[@Migglefitch]

This is old news. YOUR LIGHTYEARS BEHIND CONGRESS AND SENATE. YOU HAD BETTER STEP IT UP.

[@roninbaltao9248]

Breaking news. Duhhhh

[@marvelouslife1309]

Accusing is not the same as being right. Accusing is not to be taken as evidence of guilt. Accusing is a ploy. A maneuver. A trick. It's an indication you are being played, your buttons are going to pushed, they are selling you a narrative. What this guy is talking about, is ALGORITHMS. AI will eventually make this conversation a moot point.

Regulating lies and liars is not censorship. Start telling the truth and accept the facts, then you will be unregulated.

[@Mindscape6]

That is literally censorship if it's coming from the government. They do not get to decide what is or isn't true. There are a few exceptions, like false advertising, terrorist threats, etc.

[@astronautical1082]

@@Mindscape6 Facts, evidence, science, and history establish the basis for legitimacy, not an inscrutable freedom to lie by omitting or denying that basis. Your belief is not the equal of expertise wielding facts, so you should not be able to promote lies to obliterate that fact.

[@Mindscape6]

@astronautical1082 I don't think you understand the constitution. Maybe you're not from the U.S., but the government here CANNOT infringe on speech, regardless of truth. Aside from that, the "scientists" in question were bought off by Fauci, lied to the press, and have been proven wrong. The science is never settled. Same situation with the Hunter Biden laptop. Lies by the government and the Bidens, social media censorship, then it's all verified.

​@@astronautical1082like russia russia russia, or 51 gys and a laptop?

[@Mindscape6]

@@astronautical1082 In fact, this very conversation is a great example. You're spreading misinformation. TH-cam can censor either of us. But the government can't tell or even ask them to do so.
