And?

A publisher isn't obliged to publish anything for you either.

Doesn't mean you can't self-publish.

Then the major vendors refuse to carry your book.

The further down this ladder you go, the less reach you have. Soon enough you'll be on a ham radio talking into the void. At that point who cares if you're able to speak freely. Social media is peak reach.

Which is capitalism and freedom of association. Nobody is entitled to having their book published by a major publisher.

Freedom of Speech does not mean "Guarantee of a large audience", mein duden.

Who is left?

Every role is filled. many by acting secretaries, who, are not congressionally approved so i don't think they get a vote on removal. We lost devos and moscow bitches wife. Chad was acting. We're looking at Mr Magoo Wilbur Ross and Ben Carson to remove the president if that's what you are asking.

Self publish... sell it on your own site.

Nobody should be forced to sell your Nazi manifesto.

Shocking that there are consequences to spreading violent rhetoric that led a group of morons to attempt one of the dumbest coups in history. I can't imagine why businesses wouldn't want to rub that stink all over themselves.

RedState tries to deny the reality that Trump supporters attempted a violent insurrection. Deletes article.

That's the joke.

So it's clear the constitution wasn't prepared for business to overrule government.

Damn, that didn't age very well.

Business is not overruling government in any way, shape, or form.

When the Constitution was written, nobody was entitled to having their worst hosted in the local newspapers (if they could even read and write). Especially if you weren't a property owning white man. That's no different now with social media companies, book publishers, or newspapers.

For all your claims to love the Constitution, your posts indicate a complete lack of understanding of the Constitution and a pretty blatant dislike of what the Constitution actually is and guarantees.

Bullshit.

It's clear you are clutching at pearls, because people don't want to do business with fucking Nazis.

It's relatively great for protecting the people against the government in comparison to protecting the people against corporations.

He said he's a "fan" and clearly he's the kind of fan that throws batteries and only talks about firing the coach.

Because that's not what it was a bout, dude. Again, you continue to show that you have no understanding of the Constitution at all.

You have a protection, take your business elsewhere.

Start your own company.

Form a boycott of your own.

[dwightyo39]

All this talk about Nazi's. Are we just talking about actual supremacist hate groups, or is everyone right of the far left a nazi?

I'm not the one opposing the 1st Amendment in the name off Nazis.

Yeah those founding fathers were clueless. Too focused on tyrannical governments to realize companies can also be tyrannical.

Yeah, but ...
If everybody is refusing to publish you, maybe it's a "you" problem.
In theory, maybe you're the only one right and everybody else is wrong (let's say the whole world becomes TrumpLand and everybody is a MAGAbot).
But then, well ... Actually your best bet is to leave this world for another. Either in space or some SF stuff, or in some kind of after life.

In practice, you will always find nice people to platform you and listen to you. Unless your opinion REALLY stinks hard. In which case, an easy fix is to change your stinky opinion.

Y'all are engaging, imo, in a pointless argument. The start of it, I believe, is that european countries are not viewing things on this matter the same way americans do (1st amendment and whatnot). Doesn't mean they're wrong, though.
My bet is that it's a way to jab at the big tech for other issues (too big, too powerful, no taxes ...), one which I find dubious, but which is nowhere near "shilling for nazis"

Less getting at each others throats between non-trumpsters, and more copium, please ?

I'd say people whoa re trying to murder the VP in order to maintain power for a fascist qualify as Nazis, wouldn't you?

What would you call all the seditious Trumpsters?
