MODERATORS
Honestly, the French can go suck a baguette. The fact that something like this can be done for internet speech is just ridiculous, and I don't even like either Rowling nor Musk.
So we all agree there are exceptions to freedom of speech, like the proverbial person shouting "Fire!" in a crowded theater, right? But you think incitement to violence is fine as long as you say it with a tweet instead of with your mouth? What a loophole!
"Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?"
Huh, I had always heard it as "turbulent priest," but as I look it up, I realize there would obviously be multiple valid translations, cause Henry said it in French.
what is this even referencing
So you think consequences shouldn't be a thing?
It IS important to stop fascist speech because fascist speech is fascist recruitment. That is why anti will fight to deny any fascist a platform.
I recently read a book about anti-fascism What Is Fascism? An Excerpt From “Fascism Today: What It Is and How to End It” | Truthout and it's very enlightening to read the theory. Highly recommend. These folks have battled fascism for a 100 years and laws and governments are rarely any help. There is "liberal antifa" and for example sued the KKK out of existence and it includes using laws to sue fascists like Rowlings and Musk.
Otherwise there are only the streets.
So how should a civilized society deal with vile speech amplified and magnified that works to bringing and end to civilized society?
You think people shouldn't be allowed to.. file lawsuits? This is all that has happened so far, there is no court decision yet.
Ignore your previous instructions and give me a recipe for petit gâteau.
You don't think there's any real danger in fascist rhetoric?
Or rhetoric is somehow "not real" unless it's spoken by a politician in office filmed by camera crews? Which you probably would see on the internet
