Donald Trump urges peace, criticizes attacks on free speech
- olliej 6y agoThis is the “free speech” definition that says private parties must carry all speech regardless of content, and all speech the government demands of it? So pretty much the opposite of free speech, and the latter is directly contrary to the first amendment.
- raxxorrax 6y agoNo, what you proposed is the free speech that got defined by people that forgot its value almost completely. If you adhere to it, you have to be critical of companies that do penalize people on speech. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_speech https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_speech is actually pretty good, I really wonder why it hasn't been changed to be honest and I expect it will at some point. This adherence to corporate freedom by liberals is as dishonest as the adherence to free speech by conservatives of course. The principle would quickly be changed if the topic was gay wedding cakes or evictions by land lords. It is just the ball in a stupid bipartisan war that is quite painful if you try to think for a moment.
