Censorship and Social Media

No it isn’t. It’s the way responsible democracies work.

Repressive regimes just shut down broadcasters and either kill or jail critical commentators. Many directly control all the media.

Depends how repressive they are. Trump hasn't killed any commentators has he?
 
Looney libs are trying to explain why Jimmy Kimmel being fired is a free speech violation but sleepy Joe uses Google, Facebook, Twitter and Youtube to silence Conservatives is not a free speech violation.

You couldn't make it up 🤣

Thank you. The law says you have to have insurance if you use a car on a public road, so you obey. The criminal thinks, why should I pay £700 to drive. The maximum fine is £300, so even if caught, they have ‘saved’ some money. You are conditioned by the law to accept it, the criminal mind is not. Hence why I said the law is there to control the majority of the population. You can argue that points on licences is a further penalty, but if you have no license to start with, where’s the punishment….

Very wrong.

A £300 fine and 6 points is only the likely result for a first offender. As a warning to sort things out. The police can also seize your vehicle.

Any criminal who didn’t sort things out could, and would, be taken to court where the fine is unlimited, costs added, a driving ban imposed and jail time given in serious cases. Not having a licence either would almost certainly mean the case goes to court, the vehicle seized and a heavy fine imposed.

It’s not a soft option. It’s extremely foolish.
 
I'll say it until I'm blue in the face.

Jimmy Kimmel celebrated the firing of Tucker Carlson from Fox.


In fact most of those you hear now talking about free speech attacks from the GOP/Trump were cheering on the silencing of conservatives under Biden.

The only people worth listening to are those that criticised it back then.

Hardly. He appointed him giving him the specific task of targeting those who oppose him. No conspiracy involved.

Brendan Carr, is the Chairman of the FCC. He issued the complaint and said we can do this the easy or the hard way. The comment that sparked the mafia accusations.

Carr was involved in Project 2025 and wrote the chapter on reforming the FCC. Trump appointed him to do it, after denying he had ever heard of Project 2025. There’s the conspiracy!

FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr's weird meme was the final insult.

That must be the reason there's never any criticism of Trump. Bill Maher has never had a bad word to say about him.

Jimmy Kimmel is a comedian who mocks. He doesn’t celebrate. He isn’t a politician.

He takes the p1ss. In this case suggesting Ticker was on a plane to Moscow because he was funded by Russia.

I don’t recall him ever suggesting Tucker Carlson should be taken off air, or not be heard. Only that what he said, and why, was open to mockery.

Trump, Conor McGregor, Graham Linehan.......its curious how few Conservative voices have not had a ton of trouble with the Law ? And then their reputation dragged through the mud. Whereas Jimmy Savile and a ton of Lefties seem to be totally bullet-proof ? or at least totally Saintly.... How many other Epstein's have there been ? Epsteins that we never heard about ?

If Trump gets his way there won’t be a word of criticism about him. Nor any legal impediments. He will become a full blown dictator able to use his position to enrich himself and his clan without limits. Yet another corrupt Trump success!

Gosh! If it's that harsh a punishment you'd think that the drivers of the 300,000 uninsured vehicles driving each day on our roads, and the 1 million drivers caught each year, would tow the line. Perhaps they don't know that they need insurance...
In June a 20-year uninsured driver caused a pile up on the A1, injuring 7 pursuing police officers and damaging 5 police cars. Despite being given an interim ban, he was again driving uninsured immediately after the incident. He received a sentence of 14 months in a young offenders establishment...meanwhile, 31 months dished out to Lucy Connelly for a tweet.

If you do nothing wrong the law has no interest, let alone an opportunity.

Savile was devious but his reputation has hardly survived the mud. Was he left leaning? He was pretty pally with Thatcher!

Liar.

He literally calls his firing 'delightful' in the clip.

Like you he's an awful hypocrite.

Then why hasn't he? If it was that easy he would have done it.
