I am explicitly talking about the government’s involvement wrt “free speech”. I am not talking about getting fired for dropping n-bombs in the breakroom.

Twitter can make whatever rules they want - for their platform.

But your boy’s statement was pretty clear. And it is now you now trying to tell me what he really meant….

And for the record - I don’t believe him (or your interpretation of what he “really” meant). When he says hate speech is not free speech - I believe that’s exactly what he means.

You're talking about what Lebron said, and he didn't say "government." The context is Twitter. You don't have to accept my interpretation. I'm not sure it's right. Just accept that it's a big, baseless leap to assume he was talking about the constitutional protection of hate speech.

Doesn't make any sense.

Again, the context is twitter. You don't get to assume he's saying a dumb thing because it's Lebron. Lebron can get himself into trouble and right wingers don't like him, so it makes everything believable to you guys, but he didn't say hate speech isn't protected by the constitution. He didn't say Morey is wrong about Hong Kong vs. China. In reference to Griner, in no way did he say that there are better places than America. Etc.

Say it real loud for the Mises Caucus, Chris.

I don’t have to assume that lebron James is dumb.

And I certainly don’t owe him anything, much less the benefit of the doubt on anything related to “free speech”.

The salt of liberal tears will lead to high blood pressure. I hope there is an investigation into big Tech and there are trillions in penalties colluding with the Biden Administration to censor free speech. The Stasi is alive and well in the Democrat Party.

Super scary stuff! That's how we lose our democracy!?!? Yikes! We lose it by letting people tweet a theory about a known corrupt politician who is a victim of an attack with peculiar details involved where the immediate reaction from the mainstream media was "Trump Bigots inspired this kind of attack! That's all! No peculiar details otherwise. Don't ask any questions or you're a right wing radical!". If the mainstream media would like to keep normal people from adopting crazy conspiracy theories, they need to be asking tough questions and getting to the bottom of the stories that have peculiar details rather than letting internet sleuths run wild with it.

I'm going to lay it out here. I don't disagree here. It's what's called a"compromise". I think it's fair. I won't be signing up, but genuine stories and truth will bubble to the surface. He is basically telling you "look, I can limit the damage of social, but we are going to make that revenue up somehow." It's an honest approach. He is not going to be able to eliminate all ad revenue. He's telling you up front.
