This kind of thing might be OK where you come from but we like free speech over here.Originally posted by AtW View Post"Is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like? If that is the case then we have free speech."- Elon MuskComment

And who gets to decide who is a dangerous individual?
Ah yes it is those people who disagree with their views and want you to believe something else.
We are ok - sadly the generations following us are fooked.Comment

Nice to see the BBC celebrating world press freedom day.
Better shut down all unofficial voices that challenge the MSM narrative and make it illegal while we're at it.Courtney Radsch, from the Committee to Protect Journalists, says anti-press rhetoric has become endemic in many countries, pointing in particular to the Philippines and the US.
She believes social media and the internet have added to the issues journalists face.
"Online harassment and its very real threats to journalists, especially women, has compounded the already challenging environment," she says."Is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like? If that is the case then we have free speech."- Elon MuskComment

Or how about people disagreeing with MSM narrative stop reading alternate sources and calling out MSM journalists on their social media? have you noticed how few articles on the BBC allow comments now and the ones that do are around fairly drab subjects and not particularly contentious?Originally posted by meridian View PostOr how about the incels just stop being jerks towards women?
They used to blame all the negative comments on Russian trolls but bow they've just shut down commenting. However if you read a BBC article that doesn't allow comments then go to the author's twitter feed you'll see the problem they face.:
Dave Lee on Twitter: "New from me: Facebook moves to ban 'dangerous' individuals. Goes into a little depth on the apparent rationale. Backlash will surely come at any moment now. https://t.co/vv0wa0iSjQ"
