TIM: I am not for censorship. 

Also TIM: Lists out everything he thinks needs to be censored. 

 

I know right?  He includes Covid in his list, one of the most egregious examples of why such platforms should NOT be censored.  It's a classic Tim thing to include such a topic in his lists -- "we can all agree on protecting puppies, arresting child molesters, and wide open borders!"

Bring back the forums. Social media by design made forums obsolete.

And yet, it defines your daily life.

You are hearing this more and more. Liberals can wave it away all they want. There is a reason why liberal thought leaders are increasing their message that social media is dangerous and speech needs to be clamped down on. If Trump was saying this, you would be losing your shlt. I would too. Anyone who wants to clamp down on speech is trying to remove our ability to speak out.

They already did this with covid. They literally banned people from Twitter for speaking out against the vaccine, and those people were proven right. They banned the guy who invented the mRNA vaccine. How is his opinion less valid just because he had concerns about its use? Don't make the mistake of being pro censorship just because it's your party. Eventually you will find yourself on the wrong end of crackdown on speech.

It is not just free speech and a free press.  It is about every individual right this country was founded upon.  Self-defense/gun rights, self-imcrimidation, unreasonable searches, property rights, real currency, equality under the law, 24/7 surveillance.   Today's technology is too good and I am not sure how we fight it without a complete dismantling of most of the federal agencies.
