    This should be a libertarians wet dream. These companies have chosen to censor their members and content providers for having ideas outside the mainstream. Surely the free market, which is obviously the best and only regulator we need, will punish companies for this. I mean Peterson called it a “catastrophe” in that video. Sell your YouTube stock boys, the free market is about to speak.

    He makes an excellent point from a business practice standpoint regarding Youtube taking on the role of content policing.
    I disagree with him on making them a public utility of some kind.

    What?

    Rather was fired for going on CBS and lying his ass off. CBS fired him with cause. What the fuck are you babbling about?

    Can you make one post that isn't everybody does it what about the right wing boogyman?
    How is that Seth Rich murder and child sex ring at a pizza place working out? Is that not just straight up lying?

    Fuck off

    Exactly what I thought. I'm down for Rather being fired and Olberman is an asshat. Just wondering why the other side doesn't feel like they are held to the same standard. Or that the shit Alex Jones says it's ok but Olberman should be fired.

    Alex Jones is an asshat too.

    Doesn't mean he needs to get banned on youtube. Put the crazies out there to be exposed for what they are - asshats.
    Are there other media platforms he can be on?

    And like I said. He's actually making money off this ordeal.

    Nobody is surprised you're defending the Clintons. Again.

    I always wonder why the left is afraid to let ideas rise and fall on their own merit.













    Actually, I don't wonder.
    Are you serious? How’s universal healthcare being allowed to rise and fall on its own merit? “Extreme leftism!” With a 60% approval rating. “How are you going to pay for it!?” When even the Koch brothers can’t fund a study that shows it would cost more than our current system.

    If you think this is a left problem and not an everyone problem you’re dumb as fuck.

    Lots of the things that are happening in the universities that aren’t good are already leaking out into the broader social world. Part of what is going to happen is that people are going to stop coming and speaking on campuses. The comedians in the United States, many of them already won’t come and do their shows on campus, because everybody is so sensitive to offence.

    Universal Healthcare did rise. A LOT. That is our current system. Thanks Obama!
    Your employer must pay that bill for you if you're unaware.


    Are we? done talking about oranges when the original conversation was about apples?




    Free speech, and the de-platforming of ideas is being done unilaterally along stark political lines. If you cant's see that, than HondoFuckingStupid.

    This is 1000% an everyone problem, because like usual, the left isn't paying attention to the "unintended" consequences the right saw coming from a country mile.

    Or the consequences WERE intended, which we can't rule out either.

    You say his free speech is being limited because of his politics. So I’m trying to detrimine what political party/ideology is being infringed upon.

    I don’t want to be a dick but it doesn’t seem like you know what universal healthcare is or what free speech means.
