  1. The Supreme Court Justice used to be an honorable and great privilege to serve America. Now it's controlled by Trump. IT'S THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, SUPREME COURT AND MAGA running for Trump like he's the ice cream truck. He's a criminal that's above the law. Starting with the Supreme Court Justice.

  2. FREEDOM OF SPEECH…. HAMBURGERS ARE NOT A RIGHT !!! TECH COMPANIES DONT HAVE THE RIGHT TO CENSOR US

  3. As long as social media isn't collecting information and it's not filled with brain rot, yeah. Don't censor anything, people should be able to see and say anything theh want against the government

  4. Hate tv broadcast channels are legalized to incite gate legal attacks over the population ass Jewish whities Apartheid the top of the line racist propaganda & black bulliing publicity brainwashed

  5. We can’t have unelected tech bosses making far reaching decisions that affect the rest of us. The Supreme Court needs to act 🤣🤣🤣🇺🇸👍

  6. Rom 3:23
    For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

    Rom 6:23
    For the wages of sin is death;

    Psalms 9:17
    The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

    Acts 8:37
    And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

    Rom 10:9
    That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

    For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

    For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

  7. Nope We Must Protect Section 230 of The Communication Decency Act At All Cost

  8. The original constitution along with some of the beginning amendments were written in a different era. I think it’s time to rewrite our constitution. Too many people abuse the privileges the old constitution affords. Too much freedom has and
    Is causing irreparable harm to our nation!

  9. Could you imagine in the 1930’s, 40’s, 50s, 60’s, 70’s, 80s, 90’s and even early the 2000’s if the phone carriers were able to listen in on all calls and if they did not like what you said, they could disconnect the call for going against community guidelines. OUTRAGEOUS Draconian thinking. If those in control of the platform want to notify LEO’s, no problem. Leave free speech alone based on just like movie, song and even video content ratings. Policy based on verified age. ❤️✝️🇺🇸

  10. It’s funny how almost everyone is pathetically doing that unnecessary untrue ungodly/immoral ignorant immature corrupt koolaid charade crap but don’t want to SAY, DO or prove ANY OF IT TO MY FACE, EYE TO EYE OR IN A REAL C-O-U-R-T🤷⁉️ Regardless of the healing, whoever or whatever… If the meaningless moral less nonsense lies & LIARS aren’t allowed nor counts in COURT at all, then it doesn’t count nor mean anything out here nor should it be allowed at all (especially considering how inhumanely long it’s ALL been going for & it’s wrongfully not allowed to be done to or around anyone else particularly in COURT & the fact if these ignorant/corrupt LIARS did try to do that in C-O-U-R-T they would’ve already been locked the heck up in PRISON or a LOONEY BIN!)💯❗️I AM an innocent legal citizen & I HAVE R-I-G-H-T-S particularly for basic human & legal RIGHTS, a LAWYER & COURT hearing (that even guilty undeserving rapists etc get⁉️that I an innocent legal sober citizen shouldn’t be illegally deprived of especially for almost a D-E-C-A-D-E too long already!)❗️Let the LIARS say, do & PROVE IT IN C-O-U-R-T along with passing legit POLYGRAPHS & DRUG TESTS, I CAN🩻💯! Lawyer & REAL RIGHTS FOR real innocent lives & souls, ME & MINE RIGHT NOW liars❗️

  11. republicans are literally fighting FOR hate-speech

  12. So they openly admit they block conservative views? 😂😂 imagine being such a pansy 💀 YouTube is the worst at it anything that will hurt someone’s whittle feelings they remove.

  13. When you are confronted by the Law of a possible violations of the public, the law of Federal Government will state your rights as is of the freedom of speech debate of this social media case states this towards yourself of an American and their rights. Starts out with this phrase which will explain reasons our speech is limited due to this beginning phrase by the Law ' YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT, ANYTHING YOU SAY CAN BE USED AGAINST YOU". The supreme court must take this in perspective of their ruling of the case involving freedom of speech, but the law of the constitution states your speech can be used against you in the court of Law. Advocates have this all wrong and the constitution states this under Federal Law so the companies of social media can and bounded by this of the need to regulate or leave the user to express anything the user feels on a platform or forum site but the companies ARE LIABLE as being part of that speech thru their forums of getting sued or worst go to jail if any speech leads to crimes. Please pass this on to Lawyers and the courts for this explains everything the courts and companies to do off this point.

  14. Free speech is good, but bad actors will always say their extreme views are moderate to muddy the waters.

  15. My right to free speech is an enumerated right enshrined in the constitution. A businesses has no right specifically mentioned in the constitution. The Court has ruled the a business is also like a person in its rights. However, those rights are not enumerated rights but rather unenumerated rights. A business has no right to restrict my speech unless it prevents them from pursuing happiness which is acquiring wealth. having an opposing view on social media is restricted yet we know that it is not illegal to have an opposing view on hot topics like transgenderism but it is what needs to occur. To talk about it to come to a realization rather than being forced to accept whatever narrative the white house wants to push today. A business has no rights to restrict speech unless they can prove that speech has harmed them. They are free to push their narrative and I must be permitted to push my narrative. That is freedom of speech.

  16. The Supreme Court is corrupt and is biased towards Zionists narratives. Who appointed seven ews to the American Supreme Court. Who has the black book on them all because they have a boss and it isn’t the American people nor the President. These justices should all be replaced for their corruption and support of Israel and the Ukraine. Seriously, they’re all lawyers yet they don’t practice the law, they create laws to benefit or rather support the AntiAmerican narrative. It’s ok to be AntiAmerican but it’s against the law in America to be antisematic. They aside from the two American Indians are not indigenous to America and they too are guilty of violating the solemn oath of allegiance to America as was sworn to by their immigrant ancestors per immigration law 337a, section 2. The seven justices should be held accountable for their support of Israel and the Ukraine, a communist state of the USSR. Demand their removal and let the people select the new justices

  17. Joe Stalin biden doesn't have enough censorship of covid and election crimes already but just wait .

  18. Companies need to start obeying the constitution

  19. I’m frigg’n sorry, you wanna have a PUBLIC platform, then it has to be 100% free—even if that brings disgusting content. There’s always gonna be a steep price for true freedom—always.

  20. Any business has the right to remove disruptive people. If someone walks into a business and makes employees and customers so uncomfortable, disgusted, or fearful that they leave, the business cannot function and will close.
    Why is the standard different for an online platform? Trump has proved that there are other platforms for their message, so his right to speech is not infringed.
    It is not the government limiting speech on social media it is the company policies, so this has nothing to do with the First Amendment right to free speech. Any business has a right to refuse service for far less … barefoot, shirtless people are not allowed into businesses all the time. Disruptive people are removed as well. This is not a valid argument, no matter how much these politicians yell about it.

    If the government ran the platform it might be an issue, but these are private companies. This is a non-issue being used as a distraction from the real threats to our rights and freedoms by these same people.

  21. They may as well sensor Americans. We have a socialist pig president that has us paying loans we didn't take out…around the Supreme Courts decision not to do that.

  22. First of all what is your description of “hate”? A lot of people say “hate” when they actually mean something you disagree with – which is totally different – get that straight

  23. They need to be debating campaign financial limits and how to bring down the illegal monopolies that have infiltrated our government, instead of threatening our ability to criticize even the most prominent politicians and leaders without fear of retaliation.

  24. The government shouldn't regulate social media at all. That's government overreach. Free speech is exactly that, free speech!

  25. Both states are republican. They should lose on that alone.

  26. Big government Republicans trying to tell private companies what to do and what women can do with their bodies. Oh but we’re for small government my ass!
