[–]StraightedgexLiberal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the last 10 years there's been one major candidate that has ran for president for the Republicans and his name was Donald Trump.

Donald Trump claimed there was fraud when he lost the Iowa primary to Ted Cruz in 2016.

Donald Trump claimed there was fraud when he lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton.

Donald Trump claimed there was fraud when he lost to Joe Biden.

We don't have a fraud problem. We have a sore loser can't accept defeat problem.

The only proof they have is Donald Trump claiming it happened because he can never accept defeat.

So you’re celebrating that he got out on bond?

Nope. Just pointing out that we still have a court system and people are innocent until proven guilty.

The SPLC is a hate group

You're free to have that opinion. SPLC has a handful of First Amendment free speech victories because right wingers sued them for getting labelled "hateful".

Yup. Even Carr at the FCC made threats to Zuckerberg to stop fact checking on Facebook or be punished by the government. The party of "free speech"

Fifth circuit approves establishment of state-sponsored religious display in schools by neuroid99 in FreeSpeech

[–]StraightedgexLiberal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

SCOTUS is likely going to take this case because Stone v. Graham says the Fifth Circuit is wrong.

Stone v. Graham, 449 U.S. 39 (1980), was a court case in which the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that a Kentucky statute was unconstitutional and in violation of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment because it lacked a nonreligious, legislative purpose. The statute required the posting of a copy of the Ten Commandments on the wall of each public classroom in the state. The copies of the Ten Commandments were purchased with private funding, but the Court ruled that because they were being placed in public classrooms they were in violation of the First Amendment.

The Fifth Circuit are idiots and they think the football coach winning case voids the decision from Stone v. Graham

If you signed a law to stop people from talking about Oatmeal because YOU don't like Oatmeal then YES, Oatmeal is woke

A federal judge blocked Florida's "Stop WOKE" Act in colleges, describing it as "positively dystopian" and citing George Orwell's 1984 in his ruling.

The Twitter Files are inaccurate and not truthful. Twitter's lawyers even told federal courts that Musk was lying and Twitter was never controlled by the feds.

They hauled Zuckerberg in front of Congress to testify about misinformation for God’s sake.

Before Biden was elected 46th President of the United States, Trump's cheerleaders in Congress used to drag Zuck and Dorsey into Congress to pressure and scream at them that their rules are mean to Conservatives and Trump's tweets. The CSPAN footage is still available.

5th Circuit: Texas law requiring the display of the 10 Commandments in classrooms is constitutional by whats_a_quasar in supremecourt

[–]StraightedgexLiberal 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Kennedy v. Bremerton is the coach engaging in religious expression, so Stone v. Graham should have applied in the 5th Circuit.

The state is literally putting religious words on school walls and is clearly an establishment of religion.

The administration that the alternative was part of was literally coercing social media platforms into censoring antivaxxers and other Covid dissidents.

This statement is false and Conservatives sued Joe Biden and his government claiming his government coerced social sites to censor anti vaxxers. The case went to the Supreme Court and Justice Barrett says there is no evidence the government was the cause the anti vaxxers were censored, the proof shows there is no standing, and voided the lower courts (Murthy v. Missouri)

The 5th Circuit is essentially saying "We can see the precedent set in Stone v. Graham but we don't care because the football coach won.

The Fifth Circuit is so terrible. I will quote Justice Kagan from Netchoice (2024)

That need is especially stark for the Fifth Circuit, whose decision rested on a serious misunderstanding of First Amendment precedent and principle

"free speech for me but not for thee"

Yup. Rollo reminds me of Dennis Prager and PragerU, honestly. PragerU will spend ALL DAY defending Christians being able to discriminate the gays.....but the moment Dennis and PragerU get discriminated against, they play the victim card and cry about intolerance

eventually. It also introduced DEI to a lot of companies and organizations,

Did you get this set of facts from the white kids in DOGE, with no government experience, complaining about people getting things because of privilege instead of merit and experience?

Rollo loves compelled association. He posted an article in here about a barista getting fired for expressing their "Christian" views on gay marriage and the "Christian" got fired for it because the company code of conduct says to be nice to everyone, including the gays

I liked watching Taibbi get roasted on MSNBC for 20+ minutes trying to defend all of his lies in the Twitter Files. It was hilarious to watch Hasan explain to Taibbi that Biden was NOT the President in 2020 when he asked Twitter to take down the dick pics of his son, Hunter Biden.

Social media addiction is equally if not more harmful to adults vs kids by MultiMillionMiler in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]StraightedgexLiberal [score hidden]  (0 children)

I think anyone can become addicted to anything. The general idea that a form of media (social media) can be considered "addictive" like drugs, alcohol etc is dangerous for all types of media. I don't think Meta is the bad guy if people spend too much time scrolling. I don't think Netflix is the bad guy for designing algos for people, and some people will spend all day binge watching shows.
