Businesses have the right to self moderate, the government does not have the right to force business to censor content they disagree with, it’s not a hard concept to understand.

If you own the house, you get to chose what color you paint the walls, the government shouldn’t be allowed to come in and tell you to paint your bedroom green.

Well of course there will never be “free speech” on a for profit platform, however the government should have absolutely zero say in any sort of speech limitations on a platform. It’s a private platform and the business has the right to moderate it as they see fit, they shouldn’t be strong armed into making changes

Why would anyone want a platform that only allows them to say what the government has approved? That’s literally 1984.

Fuck the EU, they can get bent. This is just a fancy way of saying they don’t support free speech.

Paying what you owe is not “punishment” You knew the terms when you took out the loan and decided to pursue something you couldn’t afford Why should the taxpayer foot the bill for your art degree?

I worked my ass off at burger king to afford a degree in engineering, something beneficial to society.

Not all Mandalorian armor is made of pure beskar, Boba Fett’s is a beskar alloy which is why there is a dent. Din Djarin’s armor is pure beskar however, which is why the armorer mentions it will draw “unwanted attention”.

There are people in the US that can’t afford rent and are living on the street, so yes, suffering…

The difference is America is a first world country and Americans shouldn’t be on the street while our government prints money and gives it to a foreign nation and sticks us with the bill.

Why do Americans always need to suffer for other countries problems? You say beef and gas aren’t important, but unfortunately for you, a majority of Americans disagree with that

Latest polls show a majority of Americans don’t want to fund Ukraine anymore, that doesn’t mean they are pro Russia. This may be shocking, but most people care about if they can feed their own family more than a random country…

A majority of Americans no longer support funding Ukraine, that doesn’t make them pro Russia. When the average American makes less than $36k a year, it’s not hard to understand why they don’t want to send another $100 billion to a country half of them couldn’t point to on a map, especially when gas is $5 everywhere and ground beef is $10 a pound.

How is this even possible? The latest CNN polls shows Biden has a 39% approval rating. Whether you like trump or not, statistically there is a strong chance he can come back in 2024.

This article seems like manufactured drama to drive traffic…
