RE: EU in 'Final Stages' of Law to Force Big Tech Censorship of 'Extremist' Content

in #politics6 years ago

"Extremist Content" is a great way to sell Censorship. Total and complete bullshit IMO. I don't support extremists actions, but if I'm being honest right now some of the most extreme actions being taken are by those claiming they are "protecting the people".

Sort:  

In Communist countries, there is usually a treason punishment if you say "The government sucks!". Saying that definitely labels you as an extremist in those countries. And they also have a people's commission and the works ("neutral fact checkers" wink wink) who deem what is extremist and what is not.

Yeah, that is where things are heading with all the draconian control over freedom :/

Yup, governments do much worse than Alex Jones and others who are cheered off of platforms for speaking their minds.
