can someone explain to me the difference between corporate and government censorship, when corporations and the government are definitely fucking?
-
It doesn’t allow for this. Already been ruled on.
-
Like abortion had already been ruled on, right.
Based on the text of the first amendment, it seems like it's a slam dunk to me to destroy free speech as long as it's not Congress doing it.
-
There no constitutional amendment protecting abortion.
-
Nor free speech. That was supposed to be my retort, not yours.
-
It’s actually the very first amendment.
-
Yes, I mentioned it three comments ago. I thought you might read it.
-
abortion isnt constitutionally protected.
-
Reddit isn't government.
-
no
so it doesn't mean anything. glad we agree laws were only ever an excuse, a way to keep the peasantry from banding together to protect their own when men rode in on horseback to take one of theirs, and a way to absolve a parasitic nobleman of his atrocities with a wrist slap, and disperse a crowd of raging peasants like a magic spell.
see, I remember getting banned on reddit for this several years ago. it was a thing. there was no rule against it; they just decided to. and now they're actively touching the president's dick (actual president, the white south african wannabe supervillain with the ketamine addiction, not the mcdonalds guy who technically puts us in the same continuity as the 'home alone' movies) which makes them effectively part of the government. and they're doing censorship of ideas they don't like. which is on paper supposed to be illegal in the united states. that was what I was getting at.

Censorship is not just a concept of law.
