In reply to You would have to define what

if you ever come back, Jeff, what I and Facebook and Twitter et. al. mean by violent extremism is pretty well sampled here in this Daily Beast article. It's really not that hard to draw a line, we all know hardcore porn when we see it too. I presume that even if you like hard core porn, you like that its at a site catering to it, and are glad Instagram and Facebook are not overwhelmed by it. Again, it's capitalism, if there isn't enough snuff porn or violent extremism for your tastes on the big social media sites, you can always start your own, and find a funky little scuzzy provider to host it because the big ones aren't into that branding. I bet you like capitalism, no? (Kinda related read the other day how Iran was getting pissed about bitcoin mining using up all its electricity...they just shrug if kicked out of one place and find another place.)

It played out the way it played out. I don't mean to pin a tail on you.

But note how the trolls come around just when some messaging goes south.

Prez & armed Proud Boy

Prez & armed Proud Boy buddies push war on media as "enemies" for 4 years, but Jeff wants us to worry about a Tweet from drug-addled Johnny Depp on his Bahama island. You go, dude.

By my rough estimate, DOJ has now charged 8 Proud Boys in the attempted coup.

And, again, Attorney General Bill Barr said their threats against a judge were just a technicality, not real violence. https://t.co/lzf93Z28eq

Sen Maj Ldr (GOP) says Trump "provoked" crowd, while Rudy assumed crowd of 30k would all know his "Trial by Combat" didn't mean Rambo/Saving Private Ryan combat, while Trump says "peaceful" *1 time* in hour long speech about fighting and marching to Capitol Hill and Jeff knows to cherry-pick that line - who the fuck sent you, and why the fuck are you wasting our time saying stupid shit you know we won't and shouldn't believe?

For all Trump's insults and encouraging his followers to punch and abuse and "2nd Amendment" the other side, i don't care if he wanders the earth despised, homeless and spit on, kicked, whatever for the rest of his days, especially in New York. As for actors and who knows what, i usually ignore the rantings of the crowd - otherwise I couldn't go on the internet. As for politicians, some of the statements are over the line. Cabinet members who enabled him? They should be judged & shamed in public opinion, and prosecuted where approoriate, but no, following around public figures and harrassing them with street mob tactics is bad (maybe with the exception of Rudy and "pardoned" ratf*cker Roger Stone.). Happy?
