This is just rank government intimidation designed to chill the speech of average individuals, not Newsom (who is undoubtedly having a good laugh). These clowns make low level Soviet apparatchiks look principled by comparison.

Yes, birth is a natural phenomenon that we’ve been doing *at home* for millennia. Another thing that has been happening for millennia is women and babies dying at home at higher rates than most understand/realize

Free speech for me, censorship for thee
"An activist in Morocco has been jailed for two-and-a-half years after posting a photo of herself wearing a shirt mocking the Islamic faith. Feminist campaigner Ibtissame Lachgar, 50, was charged with "causing harm to Islam" and received a £4,027 fine in addition to the prison…

I thonk this is the most stupid argument I have ever seen on twitter/X ever. Apparently, if humans are animals then a talking serpent, slug or hippopotamus is no different to a talking human.

You need about 95% vaccination rates to keep measles suppressed. The parental ignorance situation has gotten so bad that there are now multiple states where every county fails to pass this threshold. Measles will return in force.

Everything is a conspiracy, or a myth, or a "leak" these days bc creating the perception that information is secret automatically increases its appeal. Great example: Some Harvard economists, working w OpenAI, published a paper on NBER on ChatGPT usage. Just a normal paper,…
One of the richest people in the world, with former (and maybe present?) ties to the POTUS, just called for a prison sentence of a streamer for speech the rich man didn't like. Cancel culture on steroids (and ketamine).

Kash Patel told Fox the DNA, the note/text, even a Discord “it was me” — on TV. That’s pre-trial gold for any defense: prejudice, chain-of-custody, suppression motions incoming. Meanwhile, the governor says the suspect isn’t cooperating and The Guardian walked back early…

The freedom of speech means the freedom to upset and offend others or challenge others’ views. It’s a worthless ideal if relegated only to opinions that are agreeable, conventional, or broadly accepted.
Bondi did not misspeak when she talked about outlawing "hate speech." The issue is that "hate speech" in this context sounds a lot like "criticism of the ruling party," and here is Trump confirming that view, talking about siccing Bondi on some critics. She was just too candid.

I am not sure most people are grasping just how bad this is going to get. Stephen Miller is designating liberal groups "domestic terror organizations." The vice president is saying there is no unity with his fellow citizens. The pieces are being put in place to use the full force…

Interesting. Perhaps the problem of racism in the US isn't an abstract "whiteness" correlated to some abstract "white culture" but the very real and factual heritage of the Confederacy in the South.

If you need any more evidence that the attachment of sections of the right to free speech was always perfunctory, and also the dangers of the liberal/left attempt to exclude hate speech from free speech, here's the US AG Pam Bondi using that same distinction to promise repression
