Long story short, this judge thinks lying to the public about a pandemic, during a pandemic, is protected speech.
I’d like to know more details about the nature of the contacts. If the WH told a social media platform that they must remove some content “or else,” that could be problematic for me. But if it was “Hey, we think this story is false and you should delete it” (said to a private entity), I don’t see what the issue is.
Conservative opinions and comments are always inappropriate. Always. Every word uttered by a conservative is deception, manipulation, or dog-whistling some form of hate. Every single utterance.
Conservatism is inappropriate to publish. We should be moving to extinguish the plague of hatred and anti-science idiocy rather than defending it as “free speech”. Conservative speech is hate speech and should never be treated as free speech.
So that means Trump can’t contact Truth Social & DeSantis can’t contact Twitter if we fuck up & elect another fascist, right?
