Greene offers bill to abolish Section 230
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Thursday is introducing a bill to abolish Section 230 — the law the protects online platforms from liability — on the heels of Twitter accepting Elon Musk's offer to buy the company and take it private.
Greene's bill would eliminate the law making online platforms not liable for content posted by third parties and replace it with a provision to require "reasonable, non-discriminatory access to online communications platforms" through a "common carrier" framework that Greene compared to airlines or package delivery services.
Republicans have long claimed that social media platforms have an anti-conservative bias, pointing to tweets that have been taken down and the removal of entire feeds from networks.
[....] Titled the 21st Century FREE Speech Act, Greene's measure will serve as the House version of a Senate bill sponsored by Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.).
To combat the alleged bias against conservatives, it would prevent online communications platforms from exerting "undue or unreasonable preference or advantage to any particular person, class of persons, political or religious group or affiliation, or locality" and would provide consumers a mechanism to sue for violations.
Should any platform be liable for someone else's speech? Even if they engage in moderation?

Anton LaVey (LEVI the jew) of the SATANIC church existence helps prove you wrong easily: Why does it exist if GOD is dead as you say, you cowardly little satanic loon hiding behind unidentifiable anonymous? As far as Jesus?? I try to live by his words (not easy) though measuring up to it, like attempting to hold true to say, the 10 commandments, is hard.

P.S.=> Organized religion's been corrupted & HOW can I say that? I went to a Jesuit college & while hanging around with some of them, I asked them "What is the 6th commandment?" (thou shalt not kill, but it's REALLY thou shalt not commit murder) They replied as to what it was & THEN I asked them about their "Society of Jesus" oaths, specifically how they swear to POISON or KILL any enemy of the pope since he is "Christ on Earth" type bs - I said "SO, you disobey the rules God himself laid down in the 10 commandments & instead obey the Pope's & your bs? You can't serve two masters & you can bring the Pope here, we can shoot him & see if he resurrects 3 days later to see how 'Christlike' he is" well, they quit hanging around with me after that - just like I point out things the SYNAGOGUE of SATAN fake JEWS per John in REVELATION stated in their TALMUD I don't like (& neither should ANY non-jew since it states things like "we can rape your little daughters when they are 3 yrs. old" or "every jew will have 2800 slaves when the 'messiach' comes" or "it's ok to kill gentiles/goyim as well as rob them etc." well - KNOW YOUR ENEMY by their own rules I say & SHUN them + make others AWARE of them too - imo, a civic duty more or less... apk
