    You could be forgiven at this point if you think that the Democrats are purposefully just helping fascism along on it’s way.

    Sure, removing Section 230 means that comment sections and user-generated content will likely just…disappear from the internet.

    But I’m sure incentivizing these companies to basically become one-way communications mediums like television will somehow help the rampant censorship and abuse.

    Further, it’s yet to be even seen how much the Supreme Court is going to let Trump get away with. The courts may be out last enforcement mechanism, and the courts don’t have police of their own to enforce their rulings. The US Marshalls report to Trump directly.

    God, they’re painfully useless and history will remember them as dilly-dallying fuckwits or worse co-conspirators hiding behind a veneer of legitimacy.

      if you are a dem hating fundamentalist that helped get trump elected then yeah i can see why you would see them as fascist

      even the article says

      most cases against them would still fail on First Amendment grounds

      this is just an attempt to hold them accountable for the weoponised democracy destroying lie machine social media has become

      attempting to make the democrats look like nazi collaborators takes the heat off the campaign against harris that got tump elected

      i hope daddy putin is suitably grateful for your hard work destroying the US

        Some people cannot do a lot of active campaigning for health reasons. The person you just asked that question to is one of them. I just thought you should know that.
