Re: Yahoo has turned off all comments on its stories
The voice of the people to fight the propaganda has been silenced
 Quoting: bcjams


You may be correct, however as far as I am concerned, if you base your views on what other people think (or say), that just makes you a sheep.

Re: Yahoo has turned off all comments on its stories
...


nope

a comment section is a service a private business offers for free

there is no LAW stating all sites or news sites MUST offer a comment section

it is a privilege, not a right

you are not entitled to a comment section on private property

if you want to peacefully protest, you can, but private business owners, like website or store owners or home owners, don't have to allow people to protest on THEIR property

that would be like me saying I have the right to sit on your couch and protest you and everything you do and say and you have no right to have me removed
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78524861


you and I will never agree on this
 Quoting: bcjams


right, we will not agree because you are 100% in the wrong

you stating you are entitled to comment sections is like an entitled millennial melting down demanding they deserve something

show me in the constitution where it states the citizens have rights to comment sections of privately owned websites / businesses?

if you think it is an infringement of your rights, show me where the law is being broken, show me how your right to free speech is being taken away.

cause you are speaking freely about it here, so who is silencing you?

what spoiled brat demands private businesses allow them the right to a comment section?

if there were publicly owned websties, then yes you could say this is a public forum owned by the public, maintained by the public, and we. have a right to a comment section

but yahoo is a privately owned business, same as youtube, twitter, facebook and GLP.... glp has the right to ban users, delete comments and delete threads because GLP is a PRIVATELY OWNED BUSINESS, same as Yahoo, or Fox News or CNN or the NY Times

you are 100% wrong thinking you have a right to a comment section everywhere you go online.... it is akin to a spoiled brat millennial demanding they get a great job and money right out of school
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78524861

the important point poland is why now...not that they can or cant do it but why are they doing it now...and its important to remeber these guys are not pro freedom they are globalists and will run us over just like h ran yall over in 39....this shut down is a warning not to be ignored just like watching h gas up his tanks and head east...
 Quoting: bcjams



first, not in poland... have to use a proxy since glp bans me and censors me, which as a private business they have every right to do

second... why now.... uuuh i don't know, maybe because the internet has become a toxic cess pool of people commenting racist and fucked up shit, and private businesses don't want that graffiti on their property?

if you are pro freedom, then you support the rights and freedoms of private property owners. I cannot come to your house and write grafitti all over your house expressing my freedom of speech without getting punsihed for vandalizing your private property

saying your rights are more important that private property rights, is kinda communist in fact, if you say the people have more power over the use of someone else's private property.

and again you have not been silenced, and you've lost no freedoms by not being able to comment DIRECTLY on yahoo or any site... you are still commenting on it here... so your voice has not been silenced.

Your including the names of those social-media companies, with their well-known special legal privileges afforded them in the past by Congress, is why I can tell you're filtering your analysis through a leftwing prism. Which is fine and all. Just be honest about your liberal feelings and leftwing biases.

I admit I lean to the right, that I filter things through a conservative or rightwing prism.

Liberal or conservative, everyone needs to ask themselves how their political biases either help or fuck up their sense of honesty, rationality, common sense, integrity, ethics and compassion. And when those traits are treated like nuisances - as liberals have a knack of doing over and over again - a person has to ask him or herself just how fucked in the head they really are.

Ah, no...

Good try though.

It is because too many people are awake.

Too many people know the agenda and are passing it along to others.

This all started happening in the Spring of 2015. It has nothing to do with a "toxic cess pool of people commenting racist and fucked up shit". That is the plausible excuse... not the real reason.

no

what you are doing is whining that a website won't allow you to comment on it

removing comment sections is no where near akin to loading up tanks

it is private business owners doing what they want to with their private property

that is not the rumblings of tanks

it is the whining and melting down of an entitled millennial who feels they have the right to things they have no rights to

Re: Yahoo has turned off all comments on its stories

you WANT the military to drone strike people you disagree with

a pragmatic person would understand, under the constitution, you cannot lawfully drone strike citizens

a pragmatic person would understand a citizen is any person born in the US with a US birth certificate, which you refuse to acknowledge because you don't WANT to consider americans with different views then you citizens

your whole thread and ideology is based in WANT
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78524861


Believe me, you don't want to know what i want. And i wouldn't tell you anyways.

All terrorists are the same and no terrorists are Americans.

You talk about "lawfully"? Law and order is established by the victor, the victor of the war. The terrorists are attacking courthouses. There is no law that is not secured from terrorist attacks.

Your understanding of what an American citizen is is completely flawed.
 Quoting: Weyoun



I know exactly what you want, you've repeatedly stated it in this thread

and I am sure you have deeper darker thoughts about murdering humans beings

which is odd, since where in the bible does it say, it is okay to be a fucked up asshole who wants to kill people for not having the same beliefs? Sounds for more satanic then godlike. Sounds far more muslim then christian.

Law and order has already been established by the constitution, the vicotr won a long time ago.... you might remember it because you just celebrated their victory on July 4th

the court houses.... you mean the places where the law and order established by the constitution are practiced? Those court houses... The same court houses where your WANT to drone strike american citizens would be ruled unlawful by the US constitution

If being born in the US and having a US brith certificate does not make you an american citizen, then what does...explain what makes an american citizen based off the constitution of the US.... what would the court houses say constitutes an american citizen?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78524861


You think being born in America means you are free to Burm Loot and Murder?

The right to defend against an enemy doesn't stipulate the birthplace of that enemy. If you think anyone is immune from deadily force based on their birthplace, you are delusional.
 Quoting: Weyoun



any american citizen burning, looting or murdering, would go to jail and face a trial

that is law and order

enemies from within, american citizens, are still citizens...even if they burn, loot or murder. They were born here, they live here, and they have the same rights you do.

the police have the right to arrest and detain and even put down any citizen breaking the law

what's delusional is you trying to dance around the fact that the people of portland oregon are US citizens, and your WANT to drone strike them is unamerican and unlawful and unconstitutional and not christian

Re: Yahoo has turned off all comments on its stories
true conservatives support PRIVATE PROPERTY rights, which Youtube, Facebook, twitter and GLP all are, they are by definition PRIVATE PROPERTY
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78524861


So is a big company that tries to monopolize its market through a round of buyouts and unethical loss-leader pricing deserves your platitudes about "private property!!" now, always and forever?

Moreover, a big company that has been given special legal rights that permit it a bit more leeway in the judicial system? Such as social-media companies enjoying special legal privileges of being supposedly aggregators of other people's news, information and opinions, but not publishers or creators themselves.

What's interesting in the way I bet a mainly liberal or left-leaning person like yourself, who has tender feelings for the general concept of "no justice, no peace," turns around and plays the role of the tricky, greedy, unethical Limousine Liberal or Champagne Socialist with such skill and finesse.
