You can sue for defamation. We need similar laws for politicians (yellow cake WMD claims) and news media (Fox News blatant lies) where the people responsible are legally liable for what they say if they can't prove the veracity of their claims in court and/or if what they say turns out to be fabricated. Jail time is a must in this case. You can't have free speech without honest speech.

No need to sue if you can just ban your opponent from the internet.

  I want accountability not censorship.

    Isn't being Yezhoved out of reality an ultimate case of accountability for anyone political?

      No. I want real accountability.

        no, people here want to censor the right out of existence. I mean come on, Fox News? Really? The bar suddenly lowers to a point that is indefensible. It's really obvious these days that its one-sided, to the point where I throw up my hands and not expect any fairness.

        What fairness? The far right want people dead for things they can’t change and you want to talk about fairness?

Most of my friends and myself who became Trump supporters entered this area after feminist issues, investigating them and finding out they were spreading lies on national TV, in a discourse that easily passed thresholds of direct incitation to hate. In national newspapers and TV. Is it time for co-de-escalation? Would one be ready to get rid of men-hating on TV as part of getting rid of political lies? As long as there are pressing, daily hate speech issues that allow mass recruitment of youths by Fox News and the likes, there will be a good share of America who will vehemently not share the Democrat project.

  And you wonder why people hate you? Feminism is about equality. BLM is about equality. They are not the people. They are ideas and ideals. The people who do or don't support them should not influence your opinion of the idea itself. If you don't treat people how you want to be treated you are a hypocrite.

    > BLM is about equality. BLM supports violence and looting, if the target of said action is white. BLM is about black supremacy. BLM is absolutely not about equality.

  Anyone else find this comment a bit strange? I don't know anyone who feels this way and if I did I'd suspect they had some underlying unresolved misogyny.
