    I think you’re conflating speech and press. As I said in my previous comment, press is already regulated and legally bound to report true information. Freedom of speech is what’s allowing you to share your opinion on this topic, no matter how wrong it may be.

      Define press. Does a podcast or YouTube channel or Instagram/Facebook page qualify as press?

      Edit: Should Marjorie be allowed to talk about Jewish Space Lasers without any response from the government?

            Hate speech is illegal if used to incite hateful action.

            I hate [group] people. Constitutionally protected and under attack.

            We should harm [group] people. Inciting violence, and a chargeable offense.

            You know these names, and to dismiss their message, because of their bigoted speech. Regulating bigotry doesn’t end bigotry. It just makes it hide.

              Then why are these fuckheads not in jail? Neither is Alex Jones for that matter.

              Anyway it wasn’t pleasant talking to you and I’m going to block you.

              Get a spine and think in depth about your free market attitude towards speech.
