That would be lovely!

omg yes, would totally be up for that!

I personally believe in a full anarchic ideal of speech(more free than what the american constitution provides). Ideally, every company should be forced to have very few rules against speech, and not allowed to take moral stances and preach morality about anything.
Corporate entities have far too much power over the modern cultural zeitgeist, and it’s about time that got reigned in.

This is the opposite of anarchy.

I vote it replaces the cosplay at Blizzcon :smirk:

I’m sure my statement is already somewhere here among the other responses. Blizzard is not in violation of the freedom of speech because it is a private company, by which I mean it is neither a “government actor” nor does it receive funding from the United States government. The First Amendment is limited to “government actors,” not “private actors.” In order to cover themselves, most companies that provide a service, be it Blizzard, Facebook, Twitter or others, have a Terms of Service which frequently addresses this issue. By accepting those Terms of Service, you agree to follow those rules and, if necessary, face the consequences. Very often, seemingly more so these days, people scream “It’s my freedom of speech guaranteed by the Constitution!” without actually having read it or any court decisions related to it.

Lol. Tasty and… uh… effective. :wink:

Or just move to twitter. I hear it is very free speech now. But soon there will be no one to offend, as the advertisers and users not comfortable with support of second world war fascist dictators and incitement to violence are free to find another site that is more to their liking.

Freedom to spend your own money on what you want to, to associate with people you want to associate with. That’s what civilization is all about.

Forced by whom? The government? Because, yea, that’s the total opposite of “anarchy.” That’s begging for the Heavy Government Boot, which is directly opposite to the 1st Amendment.

I’m just gonna say that I do not believe anyone who claims to be a “free speech absolutist.” I think that’s saying “hey look at me, I’m an immature little dork trying to be an edge lord.” Lookin’ at YOU, Elon.

Why not just abide by the rules you agreed to?
If you don’t agree to the rules, why did you sign something stating you agreed?

When you’re in charge of a company, you can set the rules you want people to abide by.
Here, you don’t make the rules.

…why would that be relevant on a site which caters to people from various parts of the world?

(sorry for posting on topic, you can go back to your Hulk poop and bean brownies now) :stuck_out_tongue:

Actually, if you put enough chocolate in them, you can’t even tell they have black beans in them. I used to grind black beans into flour in my blender, nobody in the household noticed.

You do put enough chocolate in your brownies, right? If not, you monster!

i don’t bake… it would only be me eating it, and i don’t have the self-control to portion them out and put some in the freezer.

i’d just eat the whole gooey tray in one sitting :face_with_peeking_eye:

What I found was if I put the raw batter into small silicone loaf pans and froze them, then popped them into a plastic bag, I could have fresh, hot brownies when I wanted them, just by taking a slab out of the freezer, letting it thaw in its pan, and baking it.

They need to teach what the right to free speech actually means.

Cause a lot of idiots don’t know how it works

Actually they do know. They just want it to work differently.
