    MEGA GOODBYE THREAD: 2021 was a weird year for Sleeping Giants. 2022 will be different. Starting with the fact that someone else will be ultimately be running it.

  3. Of course, that’s not really what this is about though. Gotta sell those subs somehow, folks.

  5. The rule against misgendering was added to the ToS in 2018. It’s been almost 3.5 years since that rule came into effect. It’s not like this came out of nowhere. Don’t want your account to be locked? Follow the rules. It’s not that hard.

    What are your plans to stop private companies from enforcing their own rules? Looking forward to hearing your nuanced, educated approach to this issue involving free speech and the free market.

    A reminder that weeks have passed since Russia invaded Ukraine, killing innocent civilians, and and are STILL hosting and amplifying Russian state-sponsored propaganda outlets RT and Sputnik. These platforms are aiding and abetting war crimes.

    The lies about Invermectin and the consequences resulting from them didn’t just spread on their own. paid millions to Joe Rogan while he recommended it. amplified the lies. hosts pushed it repeatedly. published those lies, too.

    I've never seen any other American TV program parroting Russian talking points more persistently than Tucker Carlson—along with his recurring pro-Russian guests—nor have I ever seen any other U.S. show translated and broadcast with such frequency on Russian state TV.

    We have to reckon with media and social media ecosystems that reward lies over truth, outrage over journalism and disinformation over facts. We cannot let these platforms hide behind a “free speech” argument that never applied to them. They are complicit. They are culpable.

    And for what? For profit. For eyeballs. For advertising dollars. All while people died. And they’ll never pay a price for it. They should. But they won’t. And it will happen again.

    As long as Tucker Carlson is getting paid millions of dollars after calling Iraqis “primitive monkeys”, blaming George Floyd’s death on drugs, spouting the “replacement theory” nightly and cheerleading for Putin, maybe no more talk about free speech being under attack.

    And let’s also be honest that the same people who cry the loudest about free speech are the same people who haven’t said a word a about the banning of books and certain language in schools.

    We should all be able to debate ideas without fear of being fired from our jobs or tossed from our schools, but let’s also be honest about the people who use this debate as a weapon to say egregiously terrible things to win audiences, get ad dollars and protect their paychecks.
