“The politically motivated assassination of Charlie Kirk claimed the life of a husband, father, and American patriot. In the wake of this tragedy, and amid other acts of politically motivated violence, Congress has a duty to oversee the online platforms that radicals have used to advance political violence. To prevent future radicalization and violence, the CEOs of Discord, Steam, Twitch, and Reddit must appear before the Oversight Committee and explain what actions they will take to ensure their platforms are not exploited for nefarious purposes,”
I agree that social media is fucking horrible, but I don't trust this administration to handle it.
Notice that Twitter isn't included? And obviously, Truth Social. No chance in hell the "social media" platform owned by Trump is going to be questioned. And why the fuck is Steam getting called in?
Then there's how this is written. Highlighting Kirk and sidelining everything else to and amid other acts of politically motivated violence.
This is McCarthyism all over again but instead of commies the target is "radicals". Next few years in Amurica are going to be interesting. Really wish they weren't our neighbors.

*phew* MERB flew under the radar.
I had no particular wish to see Charlie Kirk or any other politician (if he can be called a politician) dead, but I honestly I don't give a fuck that he is. If the whole fucking bunch of them fell dead tomorrow I wouldn't give a shit about them personally, although I'd hate the chaos. Still, I'd not advocate just going out and shooting them. Honestly I'd rather just jail almost all of them. I'm going to miss Robert Redford a lot more than I would any of those fuckers if they fell over dead tomorrow. RIP Bob.
Jimmy kimmel fucking sucked. It’s about time his show is cancelled hahaha.Jimmy Kimmel suspended for comments on Kirk shooter! "Pre-empted Indefinitely"

People made fun of unvaccinated people and got many fired for their status or fired people over the wrong pronoun usage. Now they cry and wonder why they lost their jobs when they mock someone’s assassination. Boooooohooooooooooo whiny lil bitches. You reap what you sow.
Obviously, you wouldn’t trust the current administration - they’re constantly being labelled as a Nazi, fascist, bigot, or racist.

I didn’t trust the previous administration. They censored independent media and silenced journalists or anyone that didn’t share their narrative. Barack Obama and Joe Biden got rid of the Smith-Mundt Act in 2013 - an act that originally held news corporations accountable for lying to the American people and spreading propaganda.
Since then, the lies from left-wing media have divided not just Americans, but Canadians too. It’s fuelled hatred, chaos, and anarchy across our nations.
Mainstream media, content creators, political commentators, and streamers are all entitled to opinions - but they need to start clearly stating that what they’re saying is opinion - NOT FACT. They need to stop spreading half truths and propaganda to their viewers. The nonstop rhetoric, misinformation, and media manipulation have consequences. A man literally lost his life over this.
We need to hold journalists accountable and demand truth - not censorship or biased coverage from legacy media outlets.
My guy, Destiny is being looked into because of his comments on CK when he crashed out on Twitter the other day with political commentators. Of course they’re gonna look into his streams. People have been banned across platforms like Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, and various streaming services for their political commentary and the investigations are ongoing. They’re now targeting Destiny simply because he crashed out on Twitter and mocking / condoning Charlie Kirk’s death.
So stop saying Twitter isn’t included lmao. It’s literally happening to everyone who said anything disparaging about anything.
That’s his platform. You can make your own too, nothing’s stopping you. Obviously, Truth Social is pretty one-sided (just like legacy media coverage, LOL), but at least Trump isn’t on there cheering for people’s deaths.
You should see what that fucker Hasan Piker told his viewers live on stream once. He incited his viewers to stab right-wingers to death. He said: “left wingers, liberals, you need to be fucking showing your opponent’s guts, you need to be gutting them. You need to be shanking these motherfuckers and letting their intestines fall out. Slice ‘em up. Slice ‘em and fucking dice ‘em”
Sorry, but that’s fkn problematic^^^
You might not be a gamer or watch streams like I do, but Twitch is literally condoning this kind of behavior - while banning other streamers like Tectone just for saying the word “fuck.” That’s pure insanity.
Free speech isn’t the problem here. The real issue is when people go beyond speech and they start calling others to arms or inciting violence. That crosses a line, and it’s not something that should be brushed off or defended under the guise of “free speech”. Free speech shouldn’t be used as a shield to manipulate viewers through the media or to spread hate speech in order to push a narrative.
There are indeed limits, and I feel like people have become far too insensitive and developed an inflated sense of self behind their phones and social media accounts and think they can do or say anything without any repercussions.
Was he all stressed and pissed cause he didn’t get dicks in his mouth on that day?
What some people fail to understand is that stuff like this (which is widely normalized on the left) is actively brainwashing the masses to think this way.
There’s no simpler way to put it. We don’t have to agree on politics or any specific issue, but if you think this kind of behaviour is okay, then you’re part of the problem.

Do we really need to bring up all the right wing media people calling for violence? OR will this be a pissing contest.
Because its ironic, when Paul Pelosi was attacked, Charlie cheered on and "wished someone would bail out that true patriot"
But I havent heard one democrat or left wing political influencer wish to bail out Charlies killer.

I read here and on various platforms almost the same comments starting with « violence is never an option, but... or i’m sad that he was killed, but ... or i hated his opinions but he didn’t deserve to die, but ... »
Funny how it exactly sounds like « i’m not racist, but ... »

Jimmy Kimmel was properly fired, although in my opinion for very different reasons than what he was actually fired for. He was smug, condescending, elitist and egotistically believed that his political opinions matter to people or carry weight, when in reality, he is the last person in the world who should be offering any public commentary on political matters. That alone- the shutting of his mouth- is something that should be widely celebrated, both in the USA and Canada.

“Great News for America: The ratings challenged Jimmy Kimmel Show is CANCELLED. Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social on Wednesday night. “Kimmel has ZERO talent, and worse ratings than even Colbert, if that’s possible. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers, on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!!”
