This thread is great for a Friday eve primer. I have had a couple of bourbons that makes the following likely disqualifying: "Follow the money" as in deals with media companies looking to expand their market beyond the 39% regulated by the gubmint:

Thousands were thrown off of twitter, YouTube, facebook for free speech violations during Covid. It wasn’t right then either.South of Columbus, Ohio.

While I may not agree with him, Kimmel was not being hateful.
I guess it really boils down to what side of hate your beliefs lie.

The fairly conservative Supreme Court actually weighed in on this topic. You can read about it, here:

I do feel terrible for Erika Kirk.

A single person killed Charlie Kirk, not the government, as far as we know. Kirk, who himself said 'some' shooting deaths are acceptable loss for protecting 2A, so what mass outrage were you expecting? I haven't seen anyone condone murder. Not now and not when elected officials were gunned down in their homes recently or any number of murders, school shootings, etc.
I don't know how you draw any sort of equivalency between that and outrage over the government pressure and threats to pull FCC licenses. This is all to get late nite comedians tossed off the air because they make fun of Trump. It was never about what he said about Kirk, Trump has made that clear, it's about suppressing criticism and controlling the media.

I suspect that this will hasten the irrelevancy of broadcast media. The consolidation of station ownership that will happen now that FCC is setting aside ownership limits (which has been in place to protect free speech) will just drive more of a shift to online.THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

It's the politics of changing the subject.

I see what you did there, and certainly super clever of you, but I do wonder if you actually bothered to read the article. This part seemed rather important:alaskanassasin said:

Protecting her speech protects your speech. Simple as that.
Most democracies only last decades. USA had a real good run. Switzerland is next in line for longest modern democracy.I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.

I believe changing the subject would be intentionally talking about another topic , say, fishing or something....I think that is totally on topic
Condoning and outrage are opposing reactions and yes I know nobody is condoning murder nor am I drawing and equivalency , It is just my opinion and how I see it
"While I don't condone murder, well he spewed hate" is definitely not outrage
If you saw someone that you did not know get killed right in front of you , there would be a different reaction
Sheesh, this is the most I have ever commented in a non food thread, give me points for that LoLVisalia, Ca @lkapigian -
