Geez, the irony of it all

[midnight rambler]

Far lefty website commondreams.org is whining about Trumpstein "censoring the internet" via executive order stating,


"In practice, this executive order would mean that whichever political party is in power could dictate what speech is allowed on the Internet."


Gunowner perspective on 'red flag laws' is amazingly very similar: red flag laws would mean that whichever political party is in power could dictate which people can own and lawfully use arms.

Progressive and corporate journalists will dismiss and slander the average law abiding male's conservativism as racist, bigoted, homophobic, nazi, etc. and ignore his actual politics and ideas.

Yet when a male commits mass murder, they will report on and neutrally explain the details of his politics.

Thus: Average male conservative: racist, bigoted, nazi, etc.
Male mass murderer: normal conservative or normal centrist or sane leftist.

Weaponized stupidity from the dirty rotten smear merchants !!

The Sargon video on the Guardian article (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdGA1u8hCWU&t=1s) on Peterson brings up this point @11:00.

"In practice, this executive order would mean that whichever political party is in power could dictate what speech is allowed on the Internet." How is this functionally any different than the fact that the political position of Big Tech (Google, YouTube, Facebook, etc - all hard leftists) already dictates what speech is allowed on the internet??
