Another waste of our time and money. It's a bill to try and force companies to remove content they don't like...or else.

This will be shot down in court (again), and since the platforms themselves will be responsible for removing content, will not be forced to comply. It's unconstitutional and unenforceable, so just a big ass waste of everyone's fucking time. So dumb.

You’re assuming the courts will shoot it down. That’s a big assumption these days.

Show me one case where a judge has ruled an unconstitutional thing is suddenly constitutional in all these court cases. Even SCOTUS isnt playing that game.

[–] EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago (1 children)

At least two members of SCOTUS are definitely playing that game

[–] just_another_person@lemmy.world -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Two members that know what would happen to them if they fracture codified law and intentionally do not. 300 million of us vs thousands in government.

[–] EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well not 300 million of us, since seemingly every registered Republican in the nation is also ecstatic about tearing the constitution to pieces. And they’re nearly the only ones among us who actually choose to own guns and have the capacity to actually do anything about it.
