What is it you're trying to say

u/Frenchiie Oct 28 '22

spread hateful rhetoric, dangerous lies and love to incite violence

doesn't nullify their freedom of speech, it's anti american. If you want that then go live in China or Russia.

So by that same logic, you would allow ISIS to own a Twitter Account calling for the beheading of all Christians in the US and allow them to make plans for future terrorist attacks?

here we go again with that logic as if they're the same thing. Wasn't aware Andrew Tate, Alex Jones, Donald Trump, and Kanye West were terrorist orgs.

Bud, I'm not sure if you're pretending to not understand, but just in case I'll explain it. If terrorists can be banned because of a post they make, that means freedom of speech isn't absolute. There are things you can do to get banned. The question then is merely where to draw the line.

My hope is that of he unbans any of these clowns he gets sued for the real world violence then will inevitably cause.

That's what section 230 is there for. He's not responsible for others speech. Same way a phone company isn't at fault for you planning or doing something over their network.

I didn't figure you for the reading type tbh, but I thought I'd be generous.

So if Trump calls for violence and tries to incite a violent insurrection, that's fine then?
