Mega-Thread: Trump Focused Discussion

[NineSpine]

I'm done with this idiot, he's been spamming this off topic bullshit for pages now. I'll be the better man and just ignore the dude.

Ok, better get back out there and talk to your senator about how they personally inspect your food.

The FCC enforces the CDA.

And who appoints the FCC?

Sorry bud, where i live we have an actual democracy

[NineSpine]

So, you want Donald Trump himself to determine Section 230 eligibility.

Well, this is getting worse and worse for you.

If your argument is "We shouldn't have regulations or laws because Trump is in charge" that is certainly a take, but I don't see how it is relevant to this particular issue. Trump is also in charge of the agencies that regulate medicine and food, but I hardly see that has a solid argument for getting rid of all medicine and food regulations.

Share please.

They have an algorithm.

Heck, even recommending friends of friends is one, or what friends are looking at is also one.

No, I'm saying it's your argument.

You are the one saying you want old people who can't learn what an IP is, to determine who is qualified for Section 230.

These are both your arguments.

why the fuck are we still talking about algorithms lmao donald can't even pronounce the word

[Draco-Onis]

If you go out there telling people there is no evidence and the Trump administration made this up, and that person has seen that allegations were made against this man years ago, that person is going to dismiss you as ignorant about the issue. You have likely caused this person to double down on their opinion, because you have communicated to them that the opposition is ignorant and ill informed.

Stick. To. The. Facts. It's not that hard.

Fact this "evidence" has not been presented in court by the government and is only being used in the media so it doesn't exist.

These are not automated algorithms, those are ones you actively have to choose for yourself. The discovery feed, which was implemented a few months ago and is based on your usage of the app, is not the default feed you get when you use bluesky.

[NineSpine]

Do you think the people at the FCC tasked with enforcing the CDA are random boomer grandmas who don't know how to use computers?

You are making an argument against all laws and all regulations, not against this particular issue.

[Mayhem]

Because to repair the fuckshit that is the US you have to find what's broken and not pretend everything will be awesome come the next election.

[Doomcookie]

I think you are making conflicting arguments.

[NineSpine]

Fact this "evidence" has not been presented in court by the government and is only being used in the media so it doesn't exist.

It was presented in court. A judge found the BS evidence compelling.

I don't know why you are so hell-bent on being wrong about the situation. What point are you trying to make?

[Joszef Kiprich]

Where you live the politicians are personally in charge of inspecting your food and medicine?

Nope, they appoint the people in charge of that. Just like almost everywhere else in the world. Don't have to talk to a senator for that.

If an agency falls under a minister's department and the agency fucks up, most of the time the minister has to resign. Last two governments imploded because of that.

[Doomcookie]

These are not automated algorithms, those are ones you actively have to choose for yourself. The discovery feed, which was implemented a few months ago and is based on your usage of the app, is not the default feed you get when you use bluesky.

Nope, that stuff is the basis for social media.

They are all features for ease of use.

[NineSpine]

I think you are making conflicting arguments.

I don't even know what your argument is, aside from that you didn't realize regulatory agencies were in charge of enforcing regulations, or that courts make tese determinations.

It's your argument, that's the point.

You are complaining that you don't even know your own argument.

[NineSpine]

Nope, they appoint the people in charge of that. Just like almost everywhere else in the world. Don't have to talk to a senator for that.

The top leadership of agencies are appointees, and right now the head of the FCC is a telecommunications attorney, so while he may be a Republican I disagree with I am fairly sure that a telecommunications attorney is an expert on telecommunications law.

The actual rank and file of the agencies are not appointees. They are civil servants.

[Bwgmon]

Do you think the people at the FCC tasked with enforcing the CDA are random boomer grandmas who don't know how to use computers?

Do you trust the FCC to make the right calls when its leading position can be appointed by someone who could rightfully be called the biggest "boomer grandpa" on the planet? When it's known that he appoints people purely by how hard they agree with everything he says and not by any kind of moral or skill-based merit?

[Mayhem]

Nope, that stuff is the basis for social media.

What do you mean nope, that's how bluesky works. You choose your feed; it's not automated based on your usage, unless you want to look at that feed, you can ignore it entirely and only see posts from people you follow.
