Spam is not free speech

submitted by Hey_guys_whats_up to whatever 2.8 yearsAug 4, 2021 09:50:21 ago (+26/-5)     (whatever)

Copy pasting news links with a script is not free speech.

Repeatedly posting the same topic over and over again is not free speech.

Using a bot to paste auto replies is not free speech.

Using multiple accounts to converse with yourself and manipulate what does and doesn't make it to the front page is not free speech.


We don't accept people posting kiddie porn, and we don't accept pajeets posting about dick enhancement pills, because we inherently accept that these actions are not a form of expressed speech. Yes, they involve speaking an idea, but that's not free speech.

These are not forms of speech anymore than me molesting a child would be a form of expressing myself. We have universally accepted limits on expression, it's simply up to the society to decide what is considered acceptable.

Why did you just post to the Reddit BLM forum about this place?

When was that posted? Could be this guy https://www.reddit.com/user/NetFlixNow/posts/

edit: and the user account is six years old, how ill does someone have to be mentally to keep around 0 activity accounts for that long?

edit2: it can't be PeterPanWannabe in this instance, gabara is in that picture which means it's older than 10 hours.. looking at how close the Martin Looter King post is to the reddit posts it could even be TheKingOfOphanim itself, how did he even come up with the idea that it's Hey_guys_whats_up?

edit3: Post the source next time, it's from SBBH https://preview.goatpen.co/post/3228/comment/9018

OK, but there is no apparent link to Hey_guys_whats_up, where did TheKingOfOphanim get the idea it's him? is this just a gabara/SBBH alt stirring up shit?

@system @Cynabuns so we have this guy TheKingOfOphanim out of the blue posting content and accusing another user (Hey_guys_whats_up) of "reporting" said guy's voat thread on reddit, all within ~10 hours. The reported thread's age and reddit posts are within the hour, the reddit account has no other activity and the accused's comment history does not suggest in any he goes to reddit to cry about racism, odds are TheKingOfOphanim is an SBBH alt and the reddit account I found is his. A further possibility is they're both LARP'ing this conflict.

See comment chain for full context.

That rarely happens because it needs more justification, probably stuck at -100 forever regardless of upvotes.

@system and here they go, when call them out, one of the boys pops in with spam to harass you. They pretend like it's just edgy chan behavior, but make no mistake, spam accounts like this are very much intentional and very much malicious.

The spam niggers are very obvious. I get your point though. It's hard to come up with a solution that isn't too constraining.

A discussion along the same lines was had on OG Voat. Is porn free speech? Some held that it certainly was not. I don’t know if I’m inclined to agree on the categorization, though I do know that it shits up everything.

Having principles is good. Adhering to a principle that is obviously being abused is stupid.

Just assume porn is Free Speech for a moment regardless of your beliefs. If it is corrupting a non-porn but Free Speech environment, then violate the Free Speech principle regarding it and remove the material. Then simply ignore those that inevitably bemoan, "muh Free Speech, you hypocrite!"

If you only follow a principle 98% of the time, you still "own" that principle. 100% is expected by deceivers that never had any principles of their own.

Principles are pointless restrictions that limit someones ability to think out different scenarios. There is literally no such golden principle because that would assume the world is black and white, but it gets destroyed so easily. Killing is wrong right? Until were killing a pedophile that is. Stealing is also wrong, until youre taking food from a nigger to feed your kids. Lying is wrong, until you are lying to the government so they don't take away your family.

Principles guide our morality but morality is not black and white, and neither will be our freedoms, ever. It will always be a battle, a back and forth, of what we are willing to fight for, and for what is willed to be given away.

People die by principles, that's because principles get you killed.

Master morality is the only way forward. Nietzsche was ahead of his time.

Are you writing just to write?

Principles are pointless restrictions that limit ...

So principles are stupid.

Principles guide our morality but morality is [some alleged nuance] ...

So now principles, which are "pointless," are back on the table.

Fuck the spammers. If gabara is that important he would have just made another alt. It's not that hard. Well registration closed it is.. and hay wtf It always happens when I have great idea for a new handle.

Does posting to whatever or all count as a topic? If so that would be a lot of voaters. And if that were the same as spam that would have the effect of making AOU right in attempting to get people to post into different topics. It is a fundamental law that AOU can't be right about anything, therefore you must also not be right.

if there is enough traffic people will start to post in the right subs, and it would be because the users want it that way, not some micromanaging chink.

you can already see regular content getting downvoted for being posted to anon subs for no reason

Sounds like a leftist wet dream of arbitrary definitions changing to fit your narrative however often as you see fit.
