    There would have to be an editor reviewing all posts. ProFootballTalk forums do that already, where your post gets reviewed, before it appears. Some fucked up shit still makes it through, but there is a while between your post and it appearing.

    The fake information they got, is from a Russian. The emails were literally tagged all over the place with Russian.

    Your source is a retard from the Federalist, hardly a good source to use. Also, the laptop isn't Hunter Biden's. They have no information on who owns the laptop.

    First of all, he isn't a mod of this forum, and secondly, there is nothing true in this story.

    No, the emails were from the Trump supporter, that supposedly show that Biden was meeting with Russians. Joe Biden already released that he has his schedule from the time, without any such meeting. He was a VP... he can’t disappear for a secret meeting...

    Edit: The only evidence I have seen of Russian involvement, as I already said, is Shackler posting in the thread. There is nothing else... as funny as it is to imply, he isn’t some agent...

    Birds of a feather flock together. Sharing fake information isn't going to help you win the election this time.

    It's not "the Twitter format". It's literally all social media. Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, comment sections, all systems that allow members of the public to provide reviews/ratings, all forums of any format whatsoever. Literally any kind of service that allows anyone but the service provider to express their views publicly in any way whatsoever.

    I won't say "it would kill the Internet", because that's ridiculously USA-centric. It would essentially cut the USA off from the rest of the global Internet, however, in much the same way that China's Great Firewall does, and for pretty similar reasons.

    So it's not really surprising, I guess, that it's the authoritarian proto-fascists pushing for this idea. Free expression is anathema to their cause.

    If it wasn’t for this... we wouldn’t have a Putin supporter celebrating that this has nothing to do with Russia. I think that’s a pretty fun side effect...

    This country truly is a dump if people end up believing that horse shit and shame on the media for amplifying it.
    There is metadata evidence that the Emails themselves were CREATED, long after the laptop was supposedly dropped off in the possession of the so called Trump-supporting computer repairman.

    https://www.ibtimes.sg/hunter-biden-...f-repair-52517

    The computer repairman, is apparently a Trump supporter that admitted to people that tracked him down, that he was upset about the "impeachment scam".

    And apparently the Metadata shows that the PDF of the email data, shows that the emails were created in September and October of 2019. Even though the claim is, from the Trump supporting Repairman, that the laptop was dropped off in April of 2019. So either the repairman made the fake emails, or Bannon or Guiliani and their teams did it.

    Except, thanks to the Republican led Senate Intel Committee, we found out that they were true. This has Guiliani and Bannon's fat sausage fingers all over it, with a Trump supporting computer repairman with fake emails on it. Emails that were created after the laptop was supposedly dropped off at the repairshop.

    This bullshit propaganda is completely falling apart, thankfully. Anyone claiming this makes them vote for Trump was going to vote Trump anyways.

    He is threatening freedom of speech on the internet... it might have the opposite effect of his intent.

    Bannon might be the only person in the country I'd trust the word of less than Trump. If he endorsed this "proof", it's definitely bullshit.

    Before these people, I genuinely only thought people lied when they had something to gain. Chronic lying had never even occurred to me.

    Pathological lying, it's a mental illness. It's also a symptom of narcissistic personality disorder. I don't think most of them have the latter, but Trump certainly does.

If you post anything the site deems even marginally, potentially, problematic, your post won't be approved. They won't take on that liability. Section 230 is what currently protects them from that. Literally the point.

    They won't be "banned", because they'll never be permitted to post in the first place.

    You posted something someone might possibly have construed as implicitly racist, like, ever in your life? You're never going to be permitted to post anything in a post-230 social media world.

    Still concerning given that they're trying to put their foot on top of our necks.

    I find it hilarious that you don't understand the difference between a platform and a publisher.
