    i said she agrees with you she wants the media regulated in the same way you do.

    here is an article about it

    "In suggesting a role for the government to regulate the media's speech, AOC is echoing comments made by numerous right-wing figures—most notably President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly called for changing libel laws to make it easier for maligned officials to sue the press. Trump has also made threats against newspapers for covering his presidency negatively

    Yea I advocate for nothing she does. I simply said if they act like a publisher treat them as such.

    You say they dont so I am not sure why you keep bringing it up. I will go to bed fine regardless. I dont use Social Media.

    Further, I HAVE NEVER suggest the government regulate the "media's speech".

    I know, I was just clarifying my reasons for posting it. I am bit long winded and try not to say everything I want to all at once.
    Democrats said for years the election of 2016 was stolen, none of them were cut off from social media, accused of sedition, incitement, etc.
    A Republican/Trump says it..... Banned from all social media, brought up on charges, accused of treason and sedition and so on.
    I have an overdeveloped sense of fair play. It's why I sometimes yell at the ref through my TV.....

    you havent suggested regulation? you just did ! when you say treat them like a publisher that means regulate them.

    yunno how i want them "treated"? i want them totally ignored! i am for freedom and dont give a fuck what these social media companies do. i dont need them regulated like you and trump and AOC do. just leave them alone.

    trumpbots like you hear trump whine about social media and just mindlessly agree.

    I think you are confusing a few things here.

    AOC is talking about all media. She wants a panel to determine truth and much mroe crazy shit. I was specifically talking about Social Media which is not a publisher like CNN, Fox News, etc.

    Also, is said (key word here) "if" they act like a publisher and are classified as that, than no new regulations are needed. We already have that for CNN, etc.

    My stance is also different from Trumps. Don't turn into a liar now. I told you this last week exactly where I stood.
