Our great leader in Pyongyang, I mean DC wants to vet your text messages for misinformation.

This is about as dystopian as it gets, like creepy patriot act 2.0 kind of shit.

So is the proposal to monitor and filter text messages that have "unapproved" anti-vaccine messages, or just to use SMS messages to send pro-vaccine mass texts to everyone?

If it's the former, then the Biden administration should be removed by violent force. If it's the latter, its just an annoying spam campaign.

The Post may have been reaching with that headline. At least I hope they were.

"One SMS message cited by the outlet, sent by Turning Point USA and co-founder Charlie Kirk, read: “Biden is sending goons DOOR-TO-DOOR to make you take a Covid-19 vaccine. Sign the petition to: No medical raids in America.”"

Charlie Kirk... an asshole retweeted by the former 'prez' & who appeared at his events

Spreading misinformation can be libel. At least that's what the conservative supreme court use to believe until ... it didn't.

Still way less than what Trump did in actually monitoring reporters and supposed enemies but cuckservatives nowadays are almost entirely guilty of what they accuse others of doing.

Both sides are getting close to interfering with our rights to freedom of expression. We should be free to express opinions about the vaccine no matter how ignorant those ideas may be. Let the people reading them decide if they are true or not. No way companies should be able to flag messages that disagree with a white house pet project.

On the other side Gov. Henry McMaster telling state health officials to prohibit unsolicited door-to-door vaccination efforts flies in the face of freedom speech rights. If there is no "no trespassing" or "no solicitations" notices people should be able to go knock on doors with almost any message they want. If the person says get off my porch then get off the porch.

Stop getting your panties in a bunch. All your text messages are monitored already. If you message something controversial without e2e encryption, play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Monitored != censored, Bitcoin boy

The fact that you can't comprehend the difference between the two is a testament to your pea brain, Tin man.

I think I did comprehend the difference? Or does the != operator mean something different when you're placing $50,000 on Aerotyne stock?

!= does mean not equal. I'm impressed you know a bit of Boolean logic.

But before I spoon feed you the answer that you haven't thought deeply enough to comprehend, first let me take your temperature.

Do you prefer "Minnesota Nice" type interactions or would you rather someone grow a pair and say shit to your face?

The answer is in the answer to my question:

> Do you prefer "Minnesota Nice" type interactions or would you rather someone grow a pair and say shit to your face?

Which is worse? Personally, I like your style. If you want to talk shit, you spew it outta your cute mouth.

I don't like whiny women like tumbleweed that passive aggressively virtue signal.

If you're going to monitor my shit and put me on a list, grow a fucking pair and just censor it, so we can all get on with our lives on a properly secured platform.

I meant that with love. But you're Canadian? That would make sense.
