I mean, come on now: in a democratically run society, we're supposed to believe a Republican official is seriously proposing a law that would force independent freelance bloggers to register with the state....and then literally report themselves any time they publish something that makes any mention of any elected state official? So much for the First Amendment and freedom of the press, right? That sounds like some shit straight out of some Orwellian totalitarian playbook. But it's absolutely true. Here's a link to the actual bill that's filed with the Florida state senate. Section 3. Section 286.31 Blogger registration and reporting starts on page 5. https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2023/1316/BillText/Filed/PDF begooode, pat, and IsntLifeFunny 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nine Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 While looking up that FLA blogger bill, I also stumbled across this other gem: a Florida senate bill that would offer greater protection and legal recourse for public figures who are accused of harassment or discrimination, even in the presence of indisputable visual evidence proving their guilt . https://m.flsenate.gov/session/bill/2023/991/billtext/filed/pdf begooode, IsntLifeFunny, and Starkiller 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschool Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 None of this is surprising. Ideology wise DeSantis is far more dangerous than Trump because he actually believes his nonsense. Trump is just a grifter trying to hang on so he'll say whatever he thinks the masses what to hear. Omar 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeSantis is also more competent. Not a high bar, granted, but Trump would have been much more effective in his capricious presidency if he actually knew what the fuck he was doing and not surrounded by such a small cadre of his personally loyal idiots.

oldschool Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 I'm not saying DeSantis is a better candidate or a bigger threat to win. I'm saying ideologically he's more dangerous. Hopefully Biden doesn't regress mentally and physically too much over the next few years because if he doesn't, he likely beats either one.

Biden sucks and will lose against any Republican candidate. Failed policies, dementia, and corruption makes him unelectable. Dems are better off finding another candidate that isn't a commie. titanruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just for the record…”commie” refers to any candidate who expresses moderate / centrist views or anything short of extreme far-right conservative nationalism.

ctm Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Trump is the one who sucked off the commie Putin in Helsinki, accepted his help in 2016 and wants to enable him by ending support for Ukraine. Omar, and IsntLifeFunny 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
