The assault on the first amendment (and the return of McCarthyism)
I believe this merits its own thread now. The first amendment is definitely under assault.
I just watched the head of th
Chopping up a BABY in the womb is no different. Only a demonic nihilist would use semantics to try to justify murdering an innocent child. People like you are a danger to society and is why we must use military force to make sure politicians who think like you are never allowed to attain power.
Simple question .
You’re in the middle of room on fire .
U got 5 sec left to exit the room .
On one side u got a 1 week old baby
On the other side u got a a plate with 3 healthy embryos .
U can only pick one side , which you chose ?
Btw, Theocracy are no better mate .
Which you seem to be a fervent advocate…
Bro, your worldview is very adjacent to what Nazis believed. You're basically one of them.
Anyone that think they hold the only real truth and impose their views on others while trying to eliminate any opposition to their views are the same .
Fascist, communist, theocracy, you are all the same …..
Extremist blood thirsty morons
I accept these terms. However, as long as the person in power is bowing to Israeli influence then we're ****ed. I have doubts about Vance as he's married to a Hindu. Hindu is just another demonically influenced religion. Not as bad as Islam, but still bad.
Funny, I agree with a lot of what you say about banning certain religions but Christianity is the only thing holding the world together. Christian monarchies have ALWAYS been the most successful and peaceful forms of rule in history. I personally don't subscribe to attaining this in the future as I don't think a worldly Christian power will ever exist again. There WILL and alre
Yeah they all think the same about each other lol.
You are no different lol….
Logic, reason, wisdom, and love. All of which exist solely because of Christ.
There's no K in my name.
Yup believing in something that cant be proven (because why thousands of other religions still exist ) is a sure way to demonstrating logic and reason .
Thinking to eliminate others with different views is a sure way to demonstrate wisdom and love .
He is not overreacting. People are getting fired left and right now for posting political opinions on social media. However, they are only getting fired for "left" political opinions. Maga is immune from this.
He is absolutely overreacting. Here are a few things to consider:
- They have your whole history. You're not going to go invisible on Sauron when what Sauron wants to know is your affiliation, not your real time location.
- Roccoco said it himself - he is not significant. There isn't the manpower needed to review every American posting history and don't tell me AI can do it unless you have actually tried to use AI to get falsifiable answers.
- Getting everyone fired who is "on the Left" according to these knuckle scraping MAGA buffoons would (if they could achieve it which they can't) grind the country to a halt.
- Feds don't have time to exert force on all the obscure levers available to put pressure on employers. It's not like every organization is so susceptible to bullying. Kimmel got fired because the government controls some merger. If Roccoco is a lawyer what can they do to him? I'm not saying there is nothing, but it's not so easy to do in every case. If you have your own practice they can't just go after your license. What can they do? If they put their minds to it, yes, I'm sure they could come up with something but it some cases it will take people with subject matter expertise to apply pressure. The can only do that to so many individuals.
Lastly, why, as any level of poker player, would you not see this for the bluff it is? Why would you let these clowns do the poker equivalent of making cheap money off you. Because what they are really trying to do is intimidate people and get people to self censor. Don't fall for it. It is a huge bluff.
I'm not afraid (yet) that average people are going to be persecuted for their views, but there are certainly things that could be done.
Why do you think someone couldn't lose his law license? He absolutely could. If he practices in a red state, this could certainly happen.
I was under the impression that the first amendment has effectively been discontinued, and we must determine the winner of arguments based on our respective levels of agency the way nature intended it.

You can't just bypass all existing law and procedure and give the state bar a list of suspected libs and take away their licenses. Have you ever f'ed around with lawyers? Every little thing you do is contested. You're going to conduct thousands of hearings and present evidence when the bar is only equipped to handle so many cases?
Even McCarthyism was largely focused on communism or their notion of communism. There was a supposed minority threat in the form of foreign infiltration. Libs are like the majority. What are you even charging them with? This is just a big bluff. Sure they will go after some big names where it is easy, like Kimmel, but before you slap that duct tape over your mouth just compare this to McCarthyism and see how much more bureaucratic expansion this would entail. It isn't feasible in the least to go after some poster like Roccoco. And the fact that he would even be scared is why he isn't the best poster. He isn't the best thinker. He's not going through the details of things, just reacting to online tone swells like they are real.
Of course I can't ignore all the existing law and take away someone's license. But the President can. Have you not been paying attention to the news this year?
Trump has been violating laws left and right. The Supreme Court has said they are fine with most of his law breaking. A few times they have confirmed the illegality of his actions but not prevented them from continuing or offered any recourse for parties damaged by his actions.
Trump could easily call a Republican governor and tell him that Rococo, Esq should lose his license. The governor calls the state law board and tells them to take away his license, threatening them if necessary.
Until he's shown not to be able to do something, everyone should assume that Donald Trump can now do anything he wants to do. And I mean absolutely anything (he has said so himself). There is no one with any power who is willing to hold him accountable, and the possibility of him ever being held accountable for anything is dropping daily.
If Trump wants to shoot someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue, he can do that. If he wants to send the Navy Seals to kill his political enemies, he can do that.
If he wants to get a handgun, walk across the floor of the US Capitol and shoot Nancy Pelosi point blank in the head, he can do that. I don't think the Secret Service (SS, lol) would stop him from doing so. I don't think he would even be punished for doing that. The Supreme Court has said he's immune from prosecution. I don't have enough faith in the Senate (not even the Democratic Senators at this point) to remove him from office.
No laws apply to Donald Trump. The Constitution does not apply to Donald Trump. He has a get-out-of-jail-free card and the strongest military to have ever existed at his disposal.
He is Julius Caesar, Nero, and Caligula. And the only way that is likely to change is if he meets his demise in the same way they met theirs.
Chillrob nails it

Wow hoping the president gets killed when in 3 years a new one will be elected
Everything you are saying is speculation and none of those have happened
If the FCC guy had not said anything would you be fine with Disney firing Jimmy
Let me remind you Biden used the government to restrict free speech and you guys were fine with it . He ignored the Supreme Court as well

Wow, more people putting words in my mouth. I did not say that I hoped the president (or anyone) would get killed.
But I have no faith that a new president will be (fairly) elected in 3 years. Of course I hope that happens, but at this point I consider it more likely that will not happen.
My examples were speculation, but only the third was my own. Trump said years ago that he could shoot a man in the middle of Fifth Avenue and his supporters wouldn't care. His lawyers specifically argued to the Supreme Court that he could send Navy Seals to kill his political opponents and he would be immune from prosecution. They famously ruled in favor of Trump.
If neither the president nor anyone in his administration had said anything about Jimmy Kimmel, of course I wouldn't think there was anything wrong with him being fired (although I would be disappointed).
Whattaboutism doesn't really mean anything here, but to correct you, I certainly was not fine with president Biden restricting free speech. If you're referring to the Covid info which was supposedly suppresed, that was not known about until well after the fact.
I don't remember Biden even being accused of defying orders from the Supreme Court. But if he did, of course I don't approve of that.
You can disprove something exists without evidence by demonstrating that its existence would entail a logical contradiction. It’s one of the most common methods of proofs in philosophy.

Yes, I know that, but I don't think it can be used to disprove the existence of any supreme being. It can be used to disprove the existence of God typically believed in by Christians.
Fredric Brown's short story "Answer" is about a vast supercomputer, created by linking all the computing machines across 96 billion planets, that answers the question, "Is there a God?" with the simple phrase, "Yes, now there is a God," before electrocuting the scientist who asked the question to prevent the answer from being turned off. This influential 1954 story is considered a foundational piece in science fiction, exploring the concept of an emergent, potentially dangerous Artificial Superintelligence (ASI).

This thread is about 30 years too late.
When Clinton and the GOP Congress collaborated on the Telecommunication Act and allowed companies like Sinclair to own all three of the radio, print and TV outlets in rural America, the seeds of fascism were sown.
Get in your car and drive through the country listening to AM radio and you'll understand the polarizing brainwashing apparatus which has been unleashed in the US.
We are a divided and conquered nation which has been taught to hate each other by Machiavellian oligarchs who want us to look away from the feudal accumulation of wealth and power in fewer and fewer hands.
They have convinced conservatives that an outfit like MSNBC which is actually chock full of former Republican political operatives is actually leftist media.

When CNBC tells me I need to make sure we get the right pronouns on a mass shooter your leftists. The former republicans go anywhere they can to get paid and say anything

Pure conspiratorial nonsense while advocating for the assassination of our sitting President. But we're the unhinged ones.
Sure, I HOPE he could use this phantom power to keep the left from "winning" another election but I'm not stupid enough to believe he could pull it off. He simply DOES NOT have that power.

Fwiw, I highly recommend watching some Whitney Webb videos on YT. She's very much opposed to Trump and understands this subject as much as anyone.
