I guess option 2 is just the best you could hope for ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'm torn between dying with glory and no regrets, and getting what I wished for and seeing myself what I have done.

Tsk tsk tsk. It's hard to belive that it's come to this, but here we are. Hey, if trump nukes the internet, @Null , I want you to know that I sincerely appreciate all the work you've done and all the b.s. you've put up with over the years. You're a better guy than you realize.
What do you know about @Null? You know him personally? He's a drinking buddy of yours? You're certain he keeps this website up for your pleasure? You think he'll be your friend? Seriously I keep stumbling on things like that, assuming you know the person you (I assume) never saw IRL.

I used to wonder how people in the middle east could suicide bomb themselves, but now I understand. When you have nothing left to lose the only thing you can do is take your enemies with you.
...kinda. You're right on Palestinian suicide bombers... kinda. You might be suprised a lot of SB come from filthy rich countries like Saudi Arabia - they're 3rd (or worse) sons, with nothing to inherit, no skills, nothing. Arabian incels pretty much. They go kill themselves so they won't be a shame to the family anymore because nobody wants to be a suicide bomber except guys like that.
 
Can't we just make it so that large platforms that are used by the US government (Youtube and Twitter) are classified as utilities and therefore can't discriminate against people?

If government wants a free and open platform they can commission programmers to create their own platform with a .gov in the end and let it run as free as possible. Why must the government nationalize a private company that did well for itself. This is not according to the spirit of freedom to just take hold of property, in fact it sounds socialistic.
 
Why because it sounds easy to get public support for, sure let's cut defense contractors' funding for a twitter.gov LMAO
 
anyone here just want to say they want to kill donald trump? not just but all the lying politicians and ceos and billionaires that run this country. the ones who were friends with and killed epstien. the first ammendment doesn't protect this thought and that's bullshit, we all are thinking it but are too afraid to say it.
 
Call me optimistic (or dumb, whichever you prefer) but is it possible that Trump is just trying to scare these sites to get them to "get their asses in gear"?

It's possible; might even be probable. But it's kinda like the guy who threatens to shoot up the school because he didn't get picked for the basketball team; he might not be serious, but it's probably not a bad idea to plan in case he is.

You know there's nothing wrong with saying you appreciate something. Who cares if Null is a faggot or an asshole or whatever? He's kept a site up I like being at and have spent a lot of time on. I'd think it sucks if it went away, but all things end. I'm sure he had his own reasons for keeping it up, some of them selfish, but still, he's done something at great personal expense that benefited me and I'm not ashamed to say it.

Section 230 isn't going anywhere any time soon but if Null has ever had it with this bullshit and quits I won't hold it against him.
 
I won't hold it against him.
I will. This would've never happened if he voted for Jeb!

I'm actually impressed it took until now for Trump to go full autistic mode in this regard. That's what happen when a bunch of boomers are legislating for internet stuff: "if my minion memes are protected, it's fine"
Anyways, I really doubt you'll find many politicians that are against this, mass fake news is basically the nº1 method of campaign nowadays, it's cheap and efficient.

In a couple years freedom online will be something only tech enthusiasts will be able to have.

Why can't we just go back to the policies these companies had before they started their thoughtcrime councils and safety commissions?

Its because of consolidation and monopolization of money, time and power. Just that simple.
 
I understand your sentiment, but to quote the greatest yutub entertainer of our time "You're like a 4yo trying to fight Hulk Hogan"

You have 3 options: die in the revolution, succeed with the revolution only for the revolutionaries to fuck up even more and get exploited by survivors, join the rich and shrug at all this misery. Too bad you can't really join them without an invitation anymore...
The rich are only humans. Last I checked none of them are bullet proof, and the poor outnumber them.
