Whenever I hear someone screeching about a race war I sigh and roll my eyes.

Then I see shit like this. National Guard is even getting shot.

It's amazing how a few private companies have weaponized their sheep and unleashed them on the public. I've got to assume it's in the name of profit, but at this rate it's looking like they just want to see cities burn out of boredom.

You really hit the nail on the head. We need to acknowledge that this is not a grass roots social movement but an organized militia, and it's organized by known corporations and people. To fight this we need to fight twitter, google, facebook and specific politicians.

twitter, google, facebook

Change section 230. "How?" is the question.

and specific politicians.

If we had a solution to that problem it would've been solved in a heartbeat.

You dont need to change anything, they dont qualify based on thier censorship record. The problem is that they have regulatory capture. They have corrupted the government.

they dont qualify

You know that. I know that. The courts don't know that.

As far as the law is concerned they're operating with immunity. Unless some miracle happens with Texas and a free speech challenge is issued (which is highly unlikely) they will continue to operate with impunity. Their censorship record needs to be proven, which so far hasn't happened. One employee or even a single building full of them, have continuously used variants of the "this team of employees was given orders by their manager who was acting in their personal biased judgement unrelated to normal orders given by the company." and other legalese bullshit to avoid admitting fault.

they have regulatory capture

and while that has protected them from most of it, other agencies still exist in areas the corporations have yet to take over. Altering 230 by going through the courts outside of their control would be easier then trying to prove criminality.

They have corrupted the government.

Part of it, but they're not the illuminati.
