  1. Wow you hit a nerve. Someone on the left doesn't like the idea that Democrats use illegals to pack ballotboxes

    Which is amazing seeing as Nancy Pelosi will even admit it when she isn't watching what she says.

    How good Hypercard was, is debatable but no argument it's a crime that more isn't done to make the devices platforms for the users.

    New York and Los Angeles undoubtedly will still have the lock on supplying fake news in 2020. In case you have forgotten that's where all the stories about how wonderful Hillary was came from and how she was a lock in for the win.

    As far as I am concerned Mozilla can die. The company wanted to be political when they ousted Brendan Eich. Well the last thing I need to see is free speech being "saved" by people who clearly don't give a shit about it. Having Mozilla liberate the web will be a lot like Tibet being liberated by China.

    Wycliffe didn't say he couldn't afford it. Rather he stated the price. That's the best way I know of to stay rich: Don't assume that everything you can afford is worth the price.

    You need to think about utility theory here. If you are truly rich fast internet is worth the price because your time has value.

    Donald Trump colluded with Russia's attack on our democracy and continues to cover up Russian crimes.

    Donald Trump continues to obstruct investigations into Russia's election hacking and refuses to protect our country against Russian attacks.

    Donald Trump's behavior is the literal definition of treason.

    I know you think you mean something but not really. Here is the literal definition of treason under U.S. Law

    Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States .
    ---18 U.S. Code 2381 - Treason

    https://www.law.cornell.edu/us...

    It isn't even treason under the common usage of treason but that's another matter.

    The best you might get is an FEC violation or possibly espionage. If you are going to get upset about election code violations well that's a can of worms I would be more than glad to open but!!!, Bill, Hillary and Barack almost certainly wouldn't. I'd be happy to see them all in Jail with GW Bush the only one on the outside laughing.

    Oh come on, that's not fair. Never once did I mention that I support Communists, Socialists, or a law banning either them or Nazis

    Pardon weren't you the one who took the position it was OK to silence the NAZIs because of perceived potential danger ?

    Be very careful about censoring speech and shutting off outlets for people to vent legally and peacefully. JFK might have said it best:

    "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."

    Yeah, because when I think of peaceful revolutions, I think of the Nazis. It's not like they silenced dissent when they were in power, or that their entire ideology is based on the genocide of anyone deemed genetically inferior?

    Does it still count as a peaceful revolution if you plan to commit terrible violence after you're in power?

    I mean that was you.

    Now you want to argue that DISCORD is a business and can enforce its TOS anyway it sees fit, I am really fine with that. But you need to realize that cuts both ways and if it doesn't cut both ways people will support whoever promises to give them the knife.

    If we are basing this on violence done in the name of revolutions , the communists and socialists have everyone else beat hands down. So using your logic they need to be shut down, their groups outlawed and demonstrations broken up.
