Is JerryRig Right?

[khedrei]

What do you think? Is it time for JerryRig to have his posting rights revoked or is he our knight in shining armour?

So you would stifle free speech? Regardless of whether you like it or not, if you cut someone like JR, it wont be long until they come to stifle you.

Every once in a while when I was a kiddo saying or doing pretty stupid stuff, shock! Horror! My mom would slap me!
Which would literally shut me up and put me back into reality.

Would that count at loosing free speech!?

Absolutely. Kids a fully smart enough and experienced enough that they should be able to do anything and say anything. Especially when it comes to making important life altering permenant decisions.

I mean, the only things we don't let kids do/decide are driving, flying, voting, getting a tattoo, being a judge, lawyer, doctor, engineer, police officer, own a gun, rent a tool, get a credit card, get a piercing, drink, buy a house, take posession of a trust....

wait a second....

I was the kids that those decision making rules were based on. Definitely would have shot my eye out, drank excessively and got too many stupid tattoos. I'd also add getting married and having kids to those rules. Hell, I wasn't smart enough for all of that until I was into my 30s. Even then, my decision making was questionable.

How old should you have to be to take testosterone and transition to another gender?

Not that its scientific, but now that 33% of the people who answered dont think JerryRig is nuts (thats not a small number), will the creator of this sick thread apologize for trying to censor/bully another member on this forum and admit they were wrong?

If I had to bet, this person will do the same thing as everyone else who played a part in getting us into this mess. Double down.

1 vote is probably JerryRig himself, 1 his alias, 1 a troll

Not much difference between kids and irrational people then.

Free speech does not mean having the right to say whatever you want whenever you want. You're conflating free speech with not having a filter.

So you do want to stifle free speech if YOU don't like it.

Got it. Thanks for clarifying

When you say "free speech," what you are referring to is Freedom of Expression.

2. Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication.

Unfortunately for your argument, that freedom refers to government intervention and not private restrictions. AvCanada is a private forum and therefore can restrict the content being posted to it. For example, try posting a word starting in F and ending in UCK.

Maybe he is just a liberal cuck getting warmed up for the online censorship bill Trudeau is about to pass.

Get all you want out now, next year you might not be able to say it.

Were you one of the people that cheered on Twitter for banning people like Alex Berenson and Trump saying it was a private company but when Musk took over you were up in arms at people making similar comments to theirs? The private company argument only goes one way...

Careful, your authoritarian is showing. You should tuck that in...

[North Shore]

I'm surprised the moderators of this website do not follow their published rules. Allowing a poll that attacks an individual is against their standards of conduct. Will we see the moderators remove the poll or will they change their standards to allow defamation of an individual's character?

If it were up to me, this sub-forum would have been closed long ago; however, it's not my decision. That authority belongs to AvCanada management/ownership. WRT moderation, I have been personally taking a hands-off approach to this sub, and leaving it up to the users to police themselves, or kick it up two levels to AvCanada management.

Cheered on Twitter?

You are so far out of touch, you can't wipe your own butt.

Twitter is failing because it sucked and then a loser who was upset that people weren't agreeing with him bought it and set it on fire.

Perhaps you are correct. Please mr smart person, can you show me your authoritarian ways. When I grow up I want to be a bully and try to make people I dont agree with go away hiding behind an anonymous internet tag, just like you.

For your information, Twitter is now actually making money. It was stagnant since its creation with the stock price more or less the same as the IPO.

But maybe thats your definition of setting something on fire. To each their own I guess. I trust you though since you are the smart one and I'm the out of touch one.

Your comment shows that my reference to free speech and Twitter went so far over your head... and you were at FL450

Is Twitter Profitable? No, Twitter is currently not profitable. The company last reported a profit in 2019

Glad to see you can address the main points.

How about this then. How do you feel about the results of your poll so far?

Why don't you tell me how I fall under another political label that you have negative feelings toward.

Well, we know where you stand, don’t we now.

This isn’t being reported at all by the biased CBC, only about a million people on Twitter are laying into the police about it for watching an innocent man assaulted and laughing about it.

Oh, and Vancouver is rapidly becoming a toilet bowl.

Most overrated city in the world, perhaps.

In your view, what topic/issue would be acceptable to protest without making someone an idiot?

I'm guessing Jerry Rig et al are running out of email usernames.

JerryRig is not protesting. He is someone who has demonstrated that he lacks understanding of the basics of society and science. He is an idiot in the most literal sense of the word.
