Oh how I wished this was satire, but its real LMAO. Really? You’re gonna throw someone in jail just because they called you “fat”?

That’s real fa(t)cism.

    Threatening to throw someone in jail if they insult a politician IS a restriction of free speech. How else do you restrict free speech? They can’t install blocking devices inside a person’s vocal chords that prevents the speech from even occuring.

    This is like saying speeding is not restricted because people can still push the pedal beyond the speed limit. Of course they can! But there are state enforced consequences for it, which means that speeding is illegal (restricted).

      Oh well, I tried and failed, there is no reason to continue trying to argue with you about this.

      But here is a solution: if a provider can’t deal with laws and jurisdiction of other nations, they should make their platform restricted to their respective nation (geofencing, id verification).
