StingingVelvet: I like that you guys think giving the government power to control what a private company can have on their platform is some kind of fight for freedom. I wonder if you'll feel the same when someone completely different is running said government, with their own ideas about what Google should or should not allow.
LootHunter: Again, you got it all backwards. Making laws that restrict what platform can and can't do with content has the exact purpose of preventing people (government or private board of directors) who have "their own ideas about what Google should or should not allow" messing with freedom of speech and expression.
GameRager: He was saying that google being pro-racist and pro-sjw is as paradoxical/at odds as saying one is pro vegan and pro meat eating.
LootHunter: And *I* was saying that according to SJWs "black people can't be racist". That's racist statement by definition. Saying that SJWs aren't racist is like saying that vegans don't have food preference.
1. This. SV doesn't seem to get that some groups(including huge megacorporations) care more about the almighty dollart than people and if given the chance/there weren't laws in place they'd likely go back to the non-union/non-safety laws/child labor/worse practices if they could get away with it.
Some laws are a good thing, but some like capitalism so much they'd rather have their master but in a different form(corp rather than gov't) & can't see they are the same thing in different skins.
2. Good point on the racism thing.
