This is rich - watching a bunch of left-statists make an argument for property rights.
Except you can't even apply it correctly. Property rights to the American Left means people have the right to do what they want with their property - if you agree with what they're doing with their property. Remember the Big Gay Cake kerfluffel?
And here, you fail trying to make a property rights argument when Big Tech crushes speech you want crushed.
Because, yes, Twitter and FB have the "right" to ban users for violating their terms of service.
But any platform that DOES NOT ban speech you disagree with, you will fully support their prosecution. You'll do it by holding them "liable" for anything published on their platform that you can link to some bad outcome. No property rights for you!
The only thing missing from that Marvin Jones touchdown reversal is that it wasn't a first round playoff game.Comment

If you want to break up Big Tech go for it, get involved in the process. Any of the momentum that wanted to bring Big Tech to bear with anti-trust came from the left certainly not from your MAGA world.Comment

Lol, you really are affiliating me with MAGA aren't you. Now I've been associated with MAGA and Antifa!

You are the one worried about Trump and his twitter feed. I don't give a fucking shit, but if you are so concerned get involved. Why are we supposed to get mad about what you are mad about? I didn't call for his twitter feed to be banned, but people get banned on these platforms. Trump has many avenues where he can have free speech. Just go on Fox News.Originally posted by unknown lions fan View Post
As far as Antifa, they are basically anarchists and you say you are.Comment

I will? Have you heard for me to call for the prosecution of Parler? I don't personally give a shit what they do and the only ones liable for inciting on their platform should be the ones doing the inciting.Originally posted by unknown lions fan View Post
Even if I was prosecting them. You can believe a loss of liberty is understandable in one situation and completely wrong in another. I'm not the one that is professing liberty always and then condemning companies for exercising it.
Not everyone forces themselves to live by one set of ideas or rules for every situation. I would argue limiting your thought process so much severely holds back growth.
I honestly only chose to comment on the tech companies so I could laugh when you predictably contradicted yourself again. You will again too.. It's human nature. It's just funny to me because you think you don't do it.Comment

JGSpartan, you're hilarious. I've never seen anyone project his own argument onto another, and then accuse the other of being self-contradictory as many times as you have in just a short time here.
I do not advocate for ANY state action against ANY of these platforms. GET IT? I don't advocate for the state, and I don't advocate for it to do ANYTHING.
You can't fathom the idea that I could disagree with the actions of a property owner without advocating state action against them. Show me ONE example of my advocating the state do ANYTHING. I'll wait.
On the other hand, this is how MARKETS work. If I don't like the actions of a company, I STOP USING THEIR SERVICE, and I criticize them openly. Got that?
Your insistence that "loss of liberty is understandable in one situation and completely wrong in another" is a validation of my statement that left statists have no principles, and they will advocate state action whenever they see something that doesn't please them. Anyone elses "rights" or "property" are subjective concepts.The only thing missing from that Marvin Jones touchdown reversal is that it wasn't a first round playoff game.Comment

Here is the one operating principle of the Left Statist:
The State is the force for Good in the world. There is nothing that can't be solved with more state violence.The only thing missing from that Marvin Jones touchdown reversal is that it wasn't a first round playoff game.Comment

Twitter isn't the state Hoss.Comment

Trump's twitter account is not his property either. And it's not about any state action. It is action of a property owner...... Twitter.Lions Fans.
