[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has there been a moment in history where foreign adversaries used our first amendment speech against our democracy so prolifically and aggressively? 
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. 
What about opinions propagated with the express purpose of destroying our way of life? 
Are they damaging enough?
What about opinions spread for the express purpose of getting millions of Americans killed? Or for causing a catastrophic collapse of our healthcare system? 
Is all of that protected speech?
I haven’t noticed this current administration use military force to stop citizens from exercising their first amendment rights…
   :arrow: [b]I did see that with the last administration.[/b]
No one is currently stopping anyone from petitioning the government. I have no reason to believe a second Trump administration wouldn’t attack the people, just as he did his first time in office. 
My first amendment right seem far safer with our current executive branch. [/quote]

You are going to need to show your work for this claim (bolded).

And petitioning the government is not what this topic is covering.  We are discussing government deciding to if something is "disinformation" as a way of censoring it.  Disinformation is still covered by 1A.

For all the democrats that claim to be the most educated and smartest people in the room, you are really struggling with understanding the basic concept of our First Amendment rights.  [/quote]

There is plenty online,  but honestly you shouldn’t have memory holed this to begin with, not if you are a proponent of free speech. 
And disinformation, when used as a weapon against our national security isn’t protected. 
Telling Americans to get not get vaccinated , in order to kill us, collapse our healthcare system, and cause chaos isn’t protected speech.

Please post the 1A case on point or stfu. [/quote]

Don’t move the goalposts now. We are discussing free speech. Here is an example of Trump using the military against citizens exercising their right to peacefully protest. 
If that bothers you, well good. It should bother you. Vote accordingly.[/quote]

Not the topic of discussion.  We are talking about Biden's Ministry of Truth and the censorship he has engaged in by proxy with SM.

And there are guardrails around when and where people can protest.  [/quote]

Not familiar with Biden censoring any citizens..
I AM familiar with Trump trying to censoring people on Twitter. 
Are you confusing Biden with Trump?

Let me explain it to you like you are 5.

The SAME consitutional principles that prevent Trump from unduly coercing Twitter to remove a Chrissy Tiegen tweet apply to the Biden administration unduly coercing Twitter to remove tweets it didn’t like about the Hunter laptop.

Crazy I know![/quote]

Who did Chrissy Tiegen or Hunter's laptop kill?  Can we at least stick to toxic lies that DID get people killed?[/quote]
