Should the Federal government force DP to ban me?

Ban Deuce?

I think Kirk's shooter was a groyper. Terminally online shitposter. Not a "leftist."

Should the Federal government step in and threaten to shut down Debate Politics if they don't ban me?
No but DP has every right to ban someone who says things that inflame violence.
 
I voted yes. Deuce is an aimless soul trapped within the DP social community who needs more meaning to his life. Being banned by DP on account of a directive from the Federal Government would give him raison d'être and might just in fact unite all DP members in a collaborative effort to restore the United States Constitution, solve world hunger, and save the environment.

No, however it seems I recall a lot of support not so long ago for banning or censoring “disinformation” when your side was the one doing it.

The support for private companies being allowed to decide their own content policies? Yes, I do recall that too.

Is that the same as the government forcing these decisions onto them? Is that your position?

I know this may come as a surprise to you, but unless you threaten to kill someone, the government doesn't give a shit about you.

To be clear, you would not support the government ever being involved in censoring “disinformation.” Is that your stance?

The government never threatened to shut down Facebook if they refused to censor vaccine tinfoil hat nonsense.

Stop trying to pretend these are equivalent. Doing so just proves which side of this you are on.
 
Unless you're a comedian or some other critic.
If a comedian limits themselves to DP...and we have a few of those...the government won't give a shit about them, either.

Who was Kimmel threatening to kill?
 
They appear to care very much about punishing protected speech, actually.
Other administrations certainly have taken steps to punish speech, but not the Trump administration.

So, again, you’re willing to say right here, right now, that the government shouldn’t be in the business cracking down on what it deems “disinformation.” I feel this should be easy for you.
