You banned the account I replied to right? I was pointing out the conspiracy post...

EDIT - because of rate limiting:

I've posted in both technical articles and political articles.

There have been a lot of political articles recently with the tech bans. I cannot help that.

Most of my comments are about freedom of speech, not really a political ideology.

I did not create an account to feed hellfire, I created an account to voice my opinion and debate from the other side because I see such one-sided arguments.

This is why you have an echo-chamber.

We do not agree. There was nothing credibly threatening in his tweets.

This whole mess happened because of the instigating of the media and the riots all year.

This event did not appear out of nowhere, there was major tension building and there still is.

Also, AVIF has support for live photos and animations.

WebP afaik has a more limited feature set.

Well there were pretty heavy gun regulations that were enacted under Obama.

I guess Obama did allow cartels to have guns by continuing Fast & Furious so you're half right.

My point was credible threatening speech is already illegal in America.

Another point would be who decides what is or isn't a joke or hateful?

Do you want the companies to decide what the correct speech is, would you like a government panel to police speech?

Currently, I like illegal speech being the only rule because it gets murky otherwise.

Which recent unrest? The riots last summer are still pretty recent. I doubt most of the businesses have even recovered from it yet.

edit: I don't see why I'm being downvoted, the article seems to be written when the BLM riots were relevant.

From my side, you are wrong. The stances you think I have are probably inaccurate too. Your side seems to always lock us into a prison of two ideas without letting us speak for ourselves.

The extreme assumptions and generalizations don't help. There are many of us that don't agree with you but don't exactly line up with Republicans or even Trump supporters at times.

Many Trump supporters are Libertarians that do not agree full with Republican ideals completely, but it's the closest home.

I'd say it was mostly peaceful, especially compared to the riots.

Certainly didn't last as long, it cost less in property damage, less people died, and less neighborhoods burnt down.

Maybe we can ban both sides from social media and have no Twitter.

Welcome to politics, DT's words are constantly taken out of context and used to enflame the masses.

That's why this censorship ordeal is scary. Both sides deserve to be heard so people can listen, hear both sides, sift through the bullshit and decide for themselves.
