What have they done? People can say whatever they want on those platforms.

but we should be examining how reddit creates and maintains echo chambers through intense, coordinated, partisan modding and bots designed to instantly upvote/downvote posts in order to suppress or promote certain speech.

Why? It’s not a government run site, is it?

I think you will find government actors to be heavily invested in the operations of reddit.

Discord tried to deny that Robinson was ever a user on their platform.

I think some have argued that Reddit is a psyops. Pointing out that their headquarters is close to some military installations related to intelligence.

There are echo chambers and there is reddit.

+1 .... This

I was surprised when Gov. Spencer Cox of Utah recently said ... "confirmed there was some kind of deep, dark internet, Reddit culture."

It is right there with the deep, discord groups & discussions.

However much of the media tells me 'we still don't know what the motivation was'... LMAO.

Discord is pretty much open source. I've never come across a Discord Moderator, so to speak, as most Discord is policed by Individual User Groups. I would have never known these Creep sites were on there if it hadn't been reported in the media.

Yeah, this sounds like a good idea.

I want daddy government telling me what I can and can't say on the internet, in chat or voice chat channels or even on the party line with my friends.

Next stop IRC or Magic the Gathering get togethers.
I'm sure plenty of indoctrination going on there.

If they foster a place that can promote violence, they can be held responsible. That should go across all social media platforms. They will become a lot less brave when they face consequences.


To the left, words are violence, even without a specific incitement. This means that saying trannies are mentally ill will be violence to a lot of judges around this land. Be careful.

Stop stretching it. Words are protected, however consequences are not. If you say trannies are mentally ill, that is protected. If you physically hurt a tranny, that is violence. While there are rogue judges (which the left and right have), SCOTUS has been clear on this.

If you provide a safe place for people to organize violence, you should be held accountable.
