Hillary Clinton pushes for stronger social media regulation
The Hill ^ | 10/5/2024 | Ashleigh Fiedls

Posted on 10/05/2024 5:25:15 PM PDT by simpson96

Hillary Clinton, former secretary of state, encouraged lawmakers to focus on making the internet a safer place for users during a Saturday appearance on CNN.

“There are people who are championing it, but it’s been a long and difficult road to getting anything done,” Clinton said, crediting California and New York for enacting social media regulations but emphasized the need for action at a national level.

“We need national action and sadly, our Congress has been dysfunctional when it comes to addressing these threats to our children,” the diplomat stated.

Clinton argued that social media safety regulations should be “at the top” of every legislative agenda.

“There should be a lot of things done. We should be, in my view, repealing something called section 230, which gave platforms on the internet immunity because they were thought to be just pass-throughs, that they shouldn’t be judged for the content that is posted,” Clinton later argued.

She even went as far as saying phones should be removed from schools.

“We’ve conducted a big experiment on ourselves and particularly our kids and I think the evidence is in,” she said. “We’ve got to do more, take phones out of schools. I’m so happy to see schools beginning to do that where kids turn their phone in when they walk in the door.”

Hillary's jealous of places like North Korea, China, and Iran - places that know how to put the boot on citizens vocal cords...

What an evil witch that woman is...

"She even went as far as saying phones should be removed from schools."

That's an irrelevant point (but a valid one). It SHOULD read:

"She even went as far as saying THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD HAVE TOTAL CONTROL OF THE INTERNET."

"...addressing these threats to our children,”

Has Cankles ever chatted about the border?

Hi.

This makes sense. Cankles doesn’t like ridicule.

Neither does Buba.

When they say it’s “for the children”, it means they’re up to no good.

I thought social media was about being social. She obviously does not like conversation she can not control.

And so the real reason social media was created is becoming clearer by the day.

Trump should’ve dealt with that hag on Day One in 2017. And “dealt with” = arrested, imprisoned, prosecuted, convicted, and re-imprisoned until the cows come home.

Yes, that’s the dream of every totalitarian in every sh*thole in the world. They want unchecked power and freedom for themselves - and horrible controls over all the ‘little people’. Hillary should move to North Korea - but of course she would never do that... SHE doesn’t want to live under the boot of anyone - she want to wear the boot grinding it into the faces of working people. She’s white trash...

How about a trial run where only your acolytes are silenced until your journey to Hell?
