what i'm saying is that the idea that it is beneficial for people to be sheltered from discussion is fascist and above all dumb the claims made about countries like Iraq and Lybia were lies that were spread as valid news that lead to the deaths of millions of people the government (supposedly the body responsible for discerning what is fake and what is not) is responsible for that, anyone back then who opposed those claims would have been labelled as fake and dismissed but at least there would have been discussion what you are pushing for could have wide reaching consequences like those above... that's my point |
"Oh, nazi is too overused, so I'm going to use fascist because I hope the guy doesn't know what it means." That's just cute!
Fascists weren't exactly operating above the board, I'll have you know. More the propaganda and suppression of workers' unions way than the "you're going to get a fine" way. Which still doesn't prevent anyone from posting anything, provided you like consequences.
I'm wonder, how do you think these apocalyptic (and fascist) consequences are going to come to pass exactly? Because, a boring bipartisan commissary fining Sputnik doesn't ring any alarm bells.
But sure, if that commissary got the power to wage war on sovereign nations that would be pretty bad. Weird, but also quite bad!
Come back when you have something substantial, how about that?
