Even Bill Maher is calling out the leftist oppression of 'free speech'
https://www.breitbart.com/big-hollyw...r-free-speech/Liberal comedian Bill Maher defended InfoWars host Alex Jones on Friday’s episode of Real Time with Bill Maher, arguing that self-described liberals should be in favor of free speech as it is a core American value.
Discussing Jones’ removal from social media platforms including Facebook, YouTube, Spotify, and others, Maher appeared to disagree with his audience and fellow panelists about whether censoring him was a step in the right direction.
“I’m going to talk about free speech for a minute because Alex Jones, who is not my friend, who tells crazy lies about me, is thrown off Twitter, I think, and Facebook and a few other platforms,” Maher said, prompting applause from the audience.
“Well, if you’re a liberal, you’re supposed to be for free speech,” Maher contended. “That’s free speech for the speech you hate. That’s what free speech means.”
“We’re losing the thread of the concepts that are important to this country,” he continued. “Either you care about the real American shit or you don’t. And if you do, it goes for every side. I don’t like Alex Jones, but Alex Jones gets to speak. Everybody gets to speak.”
Breitbart. But ya you ain't brainwashed.....
You really do not know about such case?
Any link to destroyed lives?Jones was telling his lunatic followers to take up arms. He already has put many people in danger and destroyed lives
The same claim we have been hearing about the persecuted whistlerblowers, also without any evidence. In contrast to the zillions destroyed lives by the actions the whistleblowers are publicizing...
The anti-Alex Jones cabal base their entire argument on the Sandy Hook massacre and how Alex Jones initially misspoke. He later retracted and apologized on numerous occasions.
Understandably distraught parents then brought suits against Jones, seeking to blame Alex Jones for their own shattered emotions and capitalize on a system which breeds victims.
Sorry no it doesn't I am not stupid enough to quote breitbart, believe what Alex Jones tells me and spew utterly paranoid conspiracy theories I got off of 4/6/8chan and youtube. So no Jeff I am not a lemming like your buddy Earl.
You on the other hand are a fucking idiot and at this point just about everyone on the forum agrees. Go back and clean your kitchen tiles you filthy pig.
If you don't think Gallup/MSNBC/CNN are heavily biased, you're living in some alternate fantasy lalaland.
Resorting to insults and threats of oppression only serve to prove you be living in your own little world of subjective realities.
https://www.acsh.org/news/2016/08/26...-science-studyImagine you receive a phone call from a pollster. When you answer, the person on the other end asks, "For whom do you plan to vote in November: The honest and trustworthy Mr. Smith, or his lying, cheating, and disgusting opponent Mr. Jones?" Quite obviously, the pollster is trying to elicit a particular response.This is a technique called "push polling," and it's actually far more of an advertising campaign than an attempt to discern the will of the voters. Nobody would take the results of such a poll seriously.
Gallup, a well-respected pollster, recently released the results of a poll on race relations that also asked African-Americans a loaded question: Can you think of any occasion in the last 30 days when you felt you were treated unfairly in the following places because you were black? (They then asked specifically about stores, restaurants, the workplace, etc.)
Just under half (46%) of African-Americans responded "yes" to being treated unfairly in at least one place during the last 30 days. However, because of the way the survey was designed, this result is nearly meaningless.
First, the question, by specifically focusing on race, is designed to elicit a particular response. A much better question would be: "Can you think of any occasion in the last 30 days when you felt you were treated unfairly?" If the question leaves the race factor out, it will likely yield a more accurate response.
Second, and far more importantly, there is no "control" group. The survey has no baseline data with which to compare the responses of African-Americans. It does not ask whites, Asians, Hispanics, or any other ethnic group if they have been treated unfairly. This is a serious oversight. People can be treated unfairly for many reasons, not just racism. Bad experiences with bosses, customer service, or the police are a universal phenomenon.
Consider if Gallup had asked white people the same question. And for the sake of argument, imagine that 20% of white people reported being treated unfairly in the past 30 days. That would mean that of the 46% of African-Americans who reported being treated unfairly, nearly half shared a similar experience with white people. Therefore, the fraction of African-Americans who were treated poorly for reasons possibly attributable to racism was actually 26%, not 46%.
One of the keys to successful social science is to ask unbiased survey questions*. The lack of a control group is just sloppiness. Gallup should know better.

Why do Trumptards have such a hard time understanding what 'Free Speech(TM)' actually means.
They seem to think it only applies to them when they want to say hateful and nasty shit and go all snowflake over it.
Misskit's already explained it perfectly clearly:
The gay frogs nutter Jones is not having his freedom of speech impugned. It's all just angry old white men venting and whining and playing the victim (again) over something they don't even understand.
This is Earls "source" quoted above...
The American Council on Science and Health defends fracking, BPA, and pesticides. Guess who their funders are.
https://www.motherjones.com/politics...s-fundraising/
Funded by Big oil, Big tobacco. Yet Earl quotes them in an attempt to discredit Gallup. Utterly laughable.
Funny Earl quoting a website created, controlled and funded by Oligarchs and massive corporations. Earl once again you prove yourself a MASSIVE hypocrite.
Some more.....
The American Council on Science and Health is a Corporate Front Group
https://usrtk.org/hall-of-shame/why-...ce-and-health/
A quote from Ralph Nader....
https://www.sourcewatch.org/index.ph...nce_and_HealthA consumer group is an organization which advocates the interests of unrepresented consumers and must either maintain its own intellectual independence or be directly accountable to its membership. In contrast, ACSH is a consumer front organization for its business backers. It has seized the language and style of the existing consumer organizations, but its real purpose, you might say, is to glove the hand that feeds it.
Looks like Earl is just a corporate shill..
are you protecting your prostate ?

Nah it just means you can be shot on a street one dark night or snatched off the street, plane, bus, hospital room, bed ........ and disappeared. MK is under the illusion that "private businesses" cannot be manipulated by government agencies and are not government "owned".
MK, without any shadow of doubt, a true believer in her chosen conspiracy/preferred agenda.
"Our Expertise
Gallup has more data and insights on the attitudes and behaviors of employees, customers, students and citizens than any other organization in the world."
Only if you believe Gallup is whiter than white and their data sources and analysis methodology are not equally liable to be manipulated by "those that matter".
A tray full of GOLD is not worth a moment in time.
I've still got no idea what he means.
He seems to be suggesting that FB, Twitter & Co. are in cahoots with the government and involved in disappearing people... and then accuses Misskit of being into conspiracy theories!?
Your words in post #87. You explain the relevance of inserting MK's post, if indeed there is any.
It's always me, me , me. Not everything posted here on TD is aimed at you or is necessary for you to comprehend. You are just the butt of many of the posts. Man up, take in the chin and attack.
Marissa Minx Is the Transgender Porn Star on Alex Jones’ Phone

This thread always reminds me of that nutter Jesus Jones.
He actually buys Jones's supplements and considers himself an exemplar of manly-manliness.
Certainly wouldn't surprise me to learn that he has furtive encounters of the 'third-sex kind' either -- it's always the ones that protest the loudest.
