I may be over simplifying but section 230 liability allows Twitter/fb and third parties to not be liable for what people post on their platforms.

If that exemption is removed then they are liable and they have to basically police themselves to avoid the legal ramifications.

So if they have no exemption, and trump gets on twitter spouting conspiracy theories and nonsense, it's a tremendous liability for them. The end result is Twitter kicking him off the platform for violation of tos.

I'm sorta confused why everyone didn't get that done in 2016.

 

So wait, Twitter will have to do more policing of its site because President Man-Baby is upset they provided a fact? He does realize they will have to limit 75% of the garbage he posts, right?

The king of the self own.

 

Jesus Christ. Libs still doing the fact checking thing? God that guy is such a fucking pussy. Tweets like this are like ads for luxury cars.

Get a new schtick: fact checking isn’t going to expand your voter base and it makes you sound like a nerd.

 

Are you okay?

 

You were never going to fuck her

 

hurtful

Yeah. He played everyone like a fiddle. No one will be talking about all the dead folks again.

 

So has Fat Boy issued his executive order sending Twitter to the firing squad yet?

 

It will be pretty ironic if his followers refuse to vote by mail and it lowers R turnout.

 

What dead folks?

 

Fuck, I never thought of it that way. That’s a good point.

 

We have no idea whether Covid19 spikes again, but the first week of November is a pretty classic spike for similar viruses.

 

Is the executive branch empowered by the legislation to determine who qualifies for the exemption or is this just more bullshit posturing that can’t be undone without another act of congress allowing it?

 

Go ahead and make twitter liable for shit people post on their platform. Sounds great to me

 

Won't this have the complete opposite effect of what they want. If Platforms are open to lawsuits based on what's posted, they're going to have no choice but to delete and ban pretty much the entire right wing presence on their sites. Trump alone would cost them millions in potential lawsuits.

 

I don’t know how I missed this earlier but I’m dying.

 

lol “calls for the FEC”

 

I trust that Facebook will not be fact-checking the amazing resumes I am about to send them for several high-paying positions at their company.

 

"But muh Q!" - angry chuds everywhere

 

Going to bring the cops on the campaign staff

 

I don't think it's realistic that companies with as many posts as Twitter and Facebook can police them all. I'm not sure how they could even stay in business if they could get sued over any one of them.

 

Wow

 

my god.

 

So if they make twitter liable, they'll just delete the fuck out of most accounts and blatant liars

Right??

 

"a hate for profit" ... come the fuck on Biden. Formally select her as your running mate.

 

I hope the Scarborough staffer has his lawyer ready. Anytime Trump makes a baseless claim or accusation sue Twitter. Eventually he won't be worth the risk and they'll kick his ass off.

 

This response video is pretty good also...

 

They’re not going to do it, they’re using the threat of doing it to get Twitter to comply, just another day in our Banana Republic.

 

I forgot about the time Trevor Noah destroyed dime store Ann Coulter

 

If understanding the available binary choice isn’t enough for you to be motivated to vote, that’s your deficiency.

 

With that capitalization you appear to be referring to the retail establishment
