Not only that, but companies colluding to deplatform someone and banks telling paypal not to handle money from certain people is alarming as fuck

Censorship is unironically good, seethe harder

Freedom of association exists, you do know this, yes?
A private company doesn't need to host views that run counter to their own, and are no responsible for providing a platform for all views.

This is why you don't put all your eggs in the huge corporate basket: They actually don't have to tolerate you, and can turn on you if you're obnoxious or extreme enough. Private companies are not public domain, whoever told you such is either lying or ignorant.

B-But Hitler!

It's funny that you don't think there's a solution.
The internet was not always a monolith, you CAN use other sites, or host your own. With your own servers and everything.

So what happens when bank cut off your ability to fund it, like what happened to Gab?
Or if domains simply refuse to host it?
Please tell me what can be done when every site colludes to take down an ideology and then banks swoop in and tell Paypal they can't deal with the sites they make?

Just make your own payment processor so you can actually make your own social media
otherwise paypal is gonna deplatform you

There are many small, light weight solutions to this, and I'm certain if your cause is passionate enough, it would fund itself. Thats what the lefites did, creating software like Mastodon because they disliked the rules of Twitter. Funnily enough, it's a system that's near impossible to be censored on because it's non-central. Likewise with PeerTube, Diaspora, and other such sites, that I'm guessing you don't know about the existence of.

If all else fails, you can try not having mass shooters use your site as a home base. That always works.

Wow, when your ideology aligns with the zeitgeist you don't get censored!?

is a redditor. During my time justifying my dislike of reddit and using it for roughly 3 weeks, I got into a thread about exposure. Literally the vast majority of redditors were all for completely shutting down and disallowing all information they were uncomfortable with to everyone. I tried making a counter-point to allowing the individual to garner their own deeper understanding of the subject to make a more informed judgment on it.
I was shit on and downvoted so hard, got all sorts of retarded head-in-the-sand arguments like
>you don't need to be seeing any of that, that's why we have scientists
>m-muh slippery slope
>muh confirmation bias
>muh emotion-based convictions with scientific and anecdotal results contradicting it
This wasn't in regards to censorship of entertainment media, it was in regards to something else. But they unironically want to classify citizens by their walk of life and chosen profession to determine their level of access to non-sensitive information. It's retarded just how emotionally driven reddit is, and the lack of apparent intuition they display.

What is legal =/= What is morally right and what should be accepted in society.

Massive Monopolies like Google and Twitter CAN legally delete your accounts or skew algorithms to ensure certain searches are not found, but the SHOULDN’T and it’s IMMORAL to do so. And there SHOULD be legislation against such acts because it creates a dishonest world trapped in an echo chamber, which goes against the entire point of free speech.

Defending the actions of censors, even if they are private, is supporting a world where dishonesty is discouraged and no real discussions ever happen.

Hell, you only defend these mega corps like YouTube since they are censoring people you don’t like. You would probably be flipping your shit right now if it was the other way around, and YouTube took down left leaning content with inconsistent rules.

That sentence is tecnically true, but that doesn´t make it any less shitty.

It's retarded how much influence they have on your exposure to information. Whenever I try to search for some scientific article or data regarding ANYTHING with psychology or sociology in regards to race or sex, I'm flooded with SJW propaganda. Hell I could just be looking for some specific porn and the first 2-3 pages will be flooded with how women need to be empowered and strong. It's utterly ridiculous.
Too bad I'm not a scholar and don't know where I would be able to find a reputable place to read about studies and unbiased assertations nor a porn scholar and know of a reputable place to look at porn in an unbiased manner

>You would probably be flipping your shit right now if it was the other way around, and YouTube took down left leaning content with inconsistent rules.
Frankly I would probably thank them, as the two-party-tango stuff is usually the worst things to watch. Otherwise I just watch stuff about games, because I like games more than porn and slacktivism.

I do understand your point though: It IS bad that only a few people have so much power over the methods of communication. The internet has been taken over by a handful of companies, and has suffered for it. I actually agree with you there. What I want is for people to stop relying on the same few sites to do everything, and I find the cries of censorship annoying because I know there are other ways to do what you want to do, it's just that the folks who cry censorship are often too lazy to ever try.

private companies are jews that deserve to be exploited by the masses into the ground. None of them have rights and all of them should burn.

You have all the power in the world.
And yet you still can do nothing about your internet foes.

Actually these days I'd think it wouldn't be as heavily censored. It would get a T rating though.

Corporations aren't breaking the law by taking shit off of their private platform. Back when the Internet was far more decentralized in terms of media consumption, this wasn't a huge deal. But basically everyone relies exclusively on youtube, twitter, google, facebook, and shit like that often never being exposed to anything else. They're so big that ideological discrimination on these platforms SHOULD be illegal, as they are much more often than not devastating to information propagation, and are allowing exactly what the constitution intended to prevent.
Unfortunately the writers of the constitution had no idea something as massive as the Internet would exist, nor the massive monopoly on information so few private organizations would have. Because it is not illegal, they are able to do so much shit you are saying, and that is unethical as fuck. However, they're doing it because they're allowed. It isn't illegal, and maybe 30 years ago, that wasn't a problem. But now it is by the fundamental nature of the economy and even the differing ways the businesses now conduct themselves; that is, if they don't like it it's wrong and it's okay to discriminate against it.

Yeah, that's straight-up defamation.

Just stay on /pol/.

That has only a loose resemblance to what we're talking about, but no practical application to it. Now if there was a case where Wal-mart was told they weren't allowed to disallow certain books from being distributed on their premises, that'd be much closer. Or people being in there and passing out ideological brochures inside them.
That case has very, very loose grounding in this situation. This is VERY far from a municipality, don't ever think otherwise until deemed by law

Not everything he states is untrue. And even if he was, it's not a crime to state untruths. The US protects all forms of expression regardless of their truthfulness. If it didn't, the entire population would be in jail.

Who says it is? The criticism is that the consequences are disproportionately severe.

We're not talking about libel, slander, or defamation. You specificially mentioned "untrue bullshit". And even if this was about defamation, the government can't send people to jail for it. The target of defamation can sue for damages, and the courts can order restitution, but the government isn't in the business of throwing people in jail for defamatory remarks.

Oh, so because they refuse to drop it (Despite clearly having 0 proof, otherwise they'd persue a case) it means he's guilty?
That's some retarded logic considering they'd offer a king's ransom to the first person to dig up anything incriminating on the guy

Woo! You guys have to have something better to defend your boy with, yes? Alex Jones got de-platformed for good reason, and the fact you have to writhe around it and lie just shows how weak of a figurehead he is.

You MUST have stronger figures to rally behind. You're having trouble because you're defending people who by any standard, are scumbags.

Chink video games are not relevant to public interest and the people who buy them are already weebs who want them to be as Japanese as it's humanly possible.

Law says a sitting president cannot be indicted. Report laid out all evidence for and against, and specifically said it could not exonerate the president on obstruction among other things, was passed onto AG, then to congress to make the judgement of whether or not to start impeachment proceedings, which would ideally result in removal from office and charges being filed. That's what the law says.

No one should be deplatformed. It's a fucking stupid thing to do.
Stonetoss is still a turbofag though

>>Crimes aren't crimes!

What Alex Jones did was not criminal. It simply got him into hot water with a bunch of narrative-controlling activist assholes who revived the issue in the wake of their recent efforts to push their gun control agenda. His statements were from 2012. He was banned from twitter in 2019. That's not an indication of being served his just desserts, that's an indication of revisionist hysteria.

I'd figure "Treason" and "Colluding with a foreign state" would be grounds for immediate impeachment if there was any evidence on the matter, and there isn't this "U can't do nuffin to the president" is a crock of shit and is merely a vehicle for your retarded stance on the matter.
You lost, you'll continue to lose, and will never taste victory.
Stay mad, scum

>He was banned from twitter in 2019.

Whoops, 2018.

The people who whine about translations are always the ones who watch the shows illegally. It's actually Japan who provides the scripts for simulcasts.

Censorship is sometimes necessary to make a game stand on a specific market. When I localized an RPG for the US we HAD to remove nipples and we decided to rename some towns and cities because their original name just didn't work in english.

Examples: A River called "Lemon" a city called "Jerking". A race called the "Black Skins". These changes are necessary even if you don't like it because otherwise we'd face huge backlashes in the US, in this example.

those are civil charges levied by an individual against an individual based on specific claims of an action's consequences, not criminal charges levied by the state against an individual based on an action itself

Once again, not everything he says is bullshit.

>including, by DEFINITION, libel, slander and/or defamation

The matters of defamation are being appropriately adjudicated by the courts. Twitter didn't ban him for defamation. It banned him because he's too hot of a property for them. Jack is under constant fire from hysterical fascists to ban undesirables from his platform, and whenever he finally capitulates, they act like it was just Twitter exercising their free discretion as a private enterprise.

Once again: you can "spout bullshit" without it being illegal. You can say critical and even untrue things about somebody, and the government won't restrict you. Jones is a fringe element, but not a criminal.

Gee, that's a really insightful observation.

If it’s untrue, then why would there need to be censorship against him?
It’s like how the Holocaust is true, yet you can’t question anything about it.

But he cross-posted between them, meaning that he was sharing defamatory material, which is also against the T&Cs.

He wasn't banned for defamatory material.
