Joe Biden Wants To Destroy Free Speech on Social Media. Biden tells the New York Times he would revoke Section 230 protections and hold Facebook (and other sites) liable for their content.

How about we hold the MSM liable for their content? How about we hold moronic politicians liable for their lies and transgressions?

I truly cannot stand this arrogant pinhead.

Within the past 2 weeks it turns out i am in agreement with both Boy George ( http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3807085/posts ) and Slow Joe. I’m starting to worry.

I don’t agree with Slow Joe on the section 230, but on his assessment of M**k Z*********g.

There is no free speech on the internet. Europe already prohibits criticism of abortion, homosexuality, big government and islam, and Facebook, YouTube, etc., obey those European directives. This would only affect liberalism.

Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996—a snippet of federal law that's generally regarded as the internet's First Amendment

BS. Section 230 as currently written lets Facebook et al. enjoy the freedoms of common carriers while acting like publishers. Real free speech is making them choose.

Which is not to say Molester Joe isn't a moron.

I got kicked off Facebook permanently because I said things they didn’t like.

What a weird coincidence. A child molester wants to limit our ability to freely discuss things. How odd....
