I kind of knew this would happen. If Gab closes because of anti-Semitic hatred, then other people’s views can be used to shut down websites as well. At least until we slice and dice.

We need carefully constructed laws, and we don’t have them. Germany probably goes overboard, but we can use them as a guideline. We need to define what is actually harmful and what is harmless opinion.

Also perhaps consider making a distinction between the poster and the host.

I hate to see this happen, but politics rules everything with the Left.

I’ve seen a documentary (propaganda) discussing Breitbart that used “user comments” to say the site was neo-Nazi / Alt-right.

So leftists can post anonymously to derail a conversation or create false impressions and then use their own posts to call for a boycott.

Media Matters has several thousand people hired to visit boards and do whatever the propaganda goal is for that day.
