1. The FCC "trademarks" the use of the word "News" in broadcast and publications. Clearly define a standard that is to be followed if the word News is used in the broadcast or publication title. 1. Should be based on facts. 2 should be based on all facts, pro and con, if the reporting entity knows other facts exist. 3. The use of reporter opinion and narrative eliminates the source from legal protections.

I can't go and purchase unpasteurized milk from the Amish, apparently. We're long past allowing consenting adults and private businesses to handle their own affairs.

Wrong. The strawman is impressive.
Here you are trying to claim that the thread was about "illegal immigration" when it was specifically about grooming gangs.
quote:
Then you dodged for a long before admitting you wanted violence.
Violence is an inherent part of the term "self defense", so the implication was explicit from the start.
quote:
You kept incorrectly interjecting grooming gangs into the discussion when they were irrelevant to the discussion.
Tommie Robinson's tweet:
"This is what happens when British peoples concerns are ignored.
When the cries of groomed children are brushed under the carpet. When an influx of undocumented fighting age men flood into communities preying on little girls for sexual gratification.
The British people have had enough.
Failed policies and failed promises lead to anger and resentment."
How can the OP be off topic? quote:
I'll post it again:
Guns won't win this political debate (in the US or UK).
You have to convince voters to support your policies. That's how democracy works.
You can keep posting your turd warm takes, but people aren't going to classify the sexual well being of their children as a "political debate". There's no debate. Come after my kids and you'll get shot. Again, unfortunately the Brits disarmed themselves.

The FCC going after social media isn't me getting punched in the face, though.

Because I asked a question that is ambivalent to the allegations of "grooming". My question was winning the battles within a democratic system. I posted it twice in the post you're quoting.

I posted it again for you.
You're not going to change immigration policies by engaging in violence. It's going to permit more immigration (and more alleged grooming).

This would be a new step in adding powers to that power structure.
I don't trust your judgement on the matter one bit. If you can point to specific regulations they're going to break, or proposed new regs under the Trump admin that could be used, then we can talk.
Until then you're just pissing your pants so you can do what you always do, play the contrarian.

Nope. OP was about grooming gangs as I've already shown.
Anything past this is pointless. You might as well be arguing about "female penises". There's no common ground when you so wildly disregard reality.

You're ultimately giving your opponents more power to use against you, unless you never lose an election again.

No, you described something they're going to try and do. You never mentioned a new regulation that's being created. For all I know, what they're proposing to do already falls under one of their current powers.

Oh, my mistake. I thought this was a long held value. If you just decided to believe in this for the purposes of arguing in this thread, I'll retract my accusation.

Oh no! You mean to tell me progressives might use the Fed to pressure social media to squash conservative speech?
Hunter Biden Laptop story cover up already happened. My dad couldn't even send the NYP link to my uncle via private message on facebook.
Conservatives are already being punched in the face, so you're going to need to come up with something else than "Wait, but that might allow them to punch you in the face!"

You gave a specific reference to use the lack of opposition as some gotcha, so I asked to observe how the discussion unfolded to see if this lack of opposition exists. Now you're backtracking.

They already tried with an misinformation czar.
We can see how this board reacted

It's irrelevant framing I've already discussed multiple times.

You’re asserting that because the government does bad things it should do more bad things.
No where did you attempt an argument of merit (wisely).

A bad idea is a bad idea regardless of who promotes it.

Authoritarianism is bad, regardless of which part of the political compass we find it.

You aren't fighting back. You're giving them more power when they re-take power.
The smart thing to do would be to eliminate the power so nobody can wield it.

Go back to my post that started the digression. That's the topic.
It doesn't matter how you frame the group to which you want action taken. I'm telling you that your plan of violence will not achieve your desired outcome. Not as long as the society at issue is a democracy.
