Why can a baker be forced to make a cake for something he disagrees with but a social media platform may pick and choose? Is it possible to sue some of these providers under the same laws that bakers are forced to serve those they disagree with.
Make no mistake, the bakery cases are not merely about baking a cake. The reports never tell us what the customer wanted on those cakes or what shape they may have been to cause the objection but you may be certain it wasn't a simple, plain cake. IF a baker may be forced to be the bearer of such a message, why not a web provider? The first amendment does not say anything about "protected groups," and when many of these suits were brought against bakeries, homosexuals were not a protected group and really still aren't.
RULE 230....If it’s abolished,social media sites will shut down rather than be sued into bankruptcy.....
Y'all can still post vanity threads though.
You insensitive fool, don’t you know that LGBTQ persons are a protected minority that cannot be discriminated against, but entities like Christian bakeries, Parler, Gab, RushLimbaugh.com, and other right-wing extremist sights are a bunch of racist, homophobic, white supremacists who need to be exterminated from the face of the Earth.
Sodomites are given protected class status (special rights) under the law in many States and soon under federal law.
Political association has no such status except in a handful of locations.
In other words, no dice.
They only allow bakeries with all turnovers?
Excellent thread
”Aw, snap!!”
Well that’s a great question. The answer is, the left and the billionaires can do as they please.
For that matterPhilippians 2:9. . . wold make a splendid advertisement, wouldn’t it?Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
