    The same SPLC being sued for labeling the innocent as haters. The same SPLC that has put schools on their hate map because they were named after confederate soldiers. The same SPLC that has been used by the hateful unhinged to kill people based on their hate map. The same SPLC that has never found a left wing hate group like Antifa.

    If that's the case why would I want to examine their record?
    Then the place to confront Stormfront members and their beliefs would be on their Stormfront website. But now you can't do that.

    Corporations controlling speech and thereby controlling thought has come true. Hollywood has always portrayed this as something right wing but surprise! This has always been a left wing ideology.

    A sure sign of intelligence is understanding who we are and our strong points as well as our limitations. You'll do all right.

    And the left supports these corporations. But was there ever any real doubt as to who would be most willing to censor speech, books or media? Orwell had it pegged in Animal Farm, as well as in other writings.

    Even if you had a job you may still consider yourself unsuccessful, as many do. People from all walks of life suffer from depression.

    So how would you measure success? Is there such a thing? Or is success just a matter of being a happy human being, glad to be alive?

    Orwell was a socialist who believed in state ownership of the means of production. He would not be amused at you dragging him into your conspiracy theories!

    You really have not much of a point really.


    Just a ton of foot stomping, because business does what business does.

    Stop saying I'm stomping my feet! :angered::chainsaw: :angered:

    Business should do in this country as the Constitution decrees insofar as the NPS and free speech are concerned.

    Nope.

    The NPS is the People's property, and should be protected by the Goobment.

    I'm not talking about the NPS.

    EDIT: give up trying to convince me. As a former owner of a couple sites, I'm not going to change my mind.

    Google, Amazon, etc. are coming under fire for being monopolies. The EU has moved on it and Google is pressuring other businesses to abandon negative press about them. This is coming to a head with the current people forced out of work by Google.

    I think you free market shills need to acknowledge the need for anti-trust laws. Trusts are illegal even in a perfect free market.

    If a company censors free speech, then a client can move to another company that doesn't. Fine.

    But if 99% of the market all agrees with each other on the same policy that censors free speech, then there isn't any decent remaining option, and this is censorship period.

    Facebook. Twitter. Youtube. Google. All these companies have basically a monopoly on their respective sectors. They are a trust.

    In America, that trust can do whatever it wants.
    And the EU is supporting that trust and giving them directives on censoring free speech.
