Edging ever closer to the Peoples Republic of China between gun control,no fly no buy,climate change hysteria. Comes Internet regulation under what I call the most FALSE pretenses I have ever heard. Censorship,policing bullying. If these new powers are anything that were granted to another state agency after the Gun Control Act of '68.

I wonder what they mean by targeted content? In a nutshell that means everything they disagree with politically ? I don't know, but what we do know is what we have seen from other government agencies like the IRS targeting their political opponents. and this crap.



Democrats targeting content and control of the Internet, especially from conservative sources, are pushing hard to layer on new regulations and even censorship under the guise of promoting diversity while policing bullying, warn commissioners from the Federal Communications Commission and Federal Election Commission


Something wicked this way comes.

Some of you will just simply chalk this up to paranoia. Some of you won't, but I see the writing on the wall.

This nation has gone full blown intellectually challenged to put it politically correct.

Anyhow.

This my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

It seems the Left Wing side has nothing much to offer their supporters anymore.

They can't seem to get what they want.

So they go after the average Citizens including their own supporters.

Lol the fox news thing came from a gop candidate that felt he was treated unfairly by fox. But of course the Washington examiner doesn't mention that and just goes off on how it is the evil dems that started it all!

The article notes nothing specific. There are republicans whining, but no details.

Also, you linked to our own thread 'this crap', and in that thread it was shown that 'climate science deniers' were not to be prosecuted. It was about a business's relationship with their shareholders. At least you referred to the thread correctly.

The only Oath keepers relevant to the topic are those congressman.

And their consistent lack of it.

That's just it.

Do you think the STATE will let anyone be critical of it ?

ATS has much a target on their backs as the 'drudges'.

It is clear to me that liberals don't care about the Bill of Rights. They constantly are fighting to take away the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 10th and any other Constitutional right that get in the way of their Authoritarian agenda. I am against ALL Authoritarians, but you don't see Republicans attacking the Bill of Rights the way Democrats do.

I would not take away any part of the bill of rights. I talk sometimes about the interrpretation of the 2nd, but of course I care about them. They aren't generally fought for by conservatives, especially the 14th.

If that is clear to you, your thinking is muddled.

A nation that requires all these "secret" agencies, like NSA, CIA, DIA, Secret Service, MI, and on and on, has a lot of things to hide. Then there are people like Edward Snowden who releases secret info to the world, and Panama Papers, and on and on.

What's the point of having all these secret agencies, if anybody can publish the secrets on the Internet for all to see?

So, practically, you can't have both free speech and secrets. They are incompatible.

What you'd really like is for the people to "believe" they have free speech, but in reality keep them in the dark about many things.

Problem is that everybody is waking up, beginning to think for themselves. That's why China is clamping down. But, China has much less secrets than the US. So, the USA inevitably must follow the China path, and become even more restrictive than China.

The time will come when the Chinese in China will be able to say "look we have more freedom than those in the USA."

Yep, death to free speech is coming.

I knew it after the house debate. The speakers face looked like he won the lottery.

The only description I know of in regard to 'targeted content' is the ads that follow you around when you buy something or , possibly, ads disguised as articles.

Both have been looked at to regulate.

My foot injury happened in a pair of wedge heeled sandals I bought at JC Penney. That morning I was on the internet looking at their summer sandals on sale in store and later went to the store and bought them.

The ads for the exact same shoes followed me around. I got so angry I went through the complicated process of disabling I think irt is 'creditio' or something weird. Its a company that does that. My ABP was doing zip to remove them.

If it wasn't for the internet, Hillary Clinton would be America's sweetheart!

This article doesn't show anything but a source willing to omit parts of the story to get yalls panties in a bunch. Works rather well looks like, guess it is easier just to take things at face value if you agree with it right?
