Sorry, it's Knight Institute - not Knight Foundation - v Trump.

Fortunately it's right in the suit.

Good luck. Please spread awareness on the case of Doug Mackey (Ricky Vaughn on Twitter), who is being persecuted by the Biden DOJ for memes. His case goes to trial today and he faces 10 years in prison: https://twitter.com/yuribezmenov22/status/1635310307383050242

If his attorneys are any good, they will argue that consumers (voters) have a duty to learn where and how they can legally vote. If I tell someone that I think they can vote by text or by beaming up a laser to the moon, is that election interference? And I would say the same thing if it was a Democrat "influencer" targeting Republican voters with memes.

B.S. If you're smart enough to operate on social media you're unlikely to be influenced by disinformation or misinformation. One man's misinformation is another man's free speech (even if it is lie). This isn't "Yelling fire in the theater".

Expand full comment

It's not a matter of "being influenced," the problem is more on the order of photoshop making something fake look real. Again I don't think you understand the issue. It IS akin to yelling "fire" or pulling a false alarm for the sake of being funny. If you care about truth and accurate info as well as protecting speech, this IS a conundrum, even in cases where deception is not intended.

I don’t think it’s anything at all akin to yelling fire in a crowded theater. The entire notion of free speech is based upon the foundation that I can say whatever I want, no matter how ugly, vile or untrue, EXCEPR in clear cases of slander and a VERY FEW other exceptions. Misinformation, malinformation, and disinformation are terms that have absolutely nothing to do with free speech and have just been interjected into the paradigm by totalitarians who need to control the narrative so they can stay in power. It’s like the term “hate speech”. There is no such animal in the law, even though overreaching local and state governments have tried to implement laws. Even the legal notion of hate crime is unconstitutional, if someone were to bother fighting in court. The feds get away with sentencing enhancements for so called hate crimes because no one has challenged its constitutionality.

I agree with you in principle on the injustice of prosecuting hate crimes and mislabeling uncomfortable tuths as "disinformation," but you are conflating those issues with the question of how to protect satirical memes from being prosecuted as libel. Maybe this is why conservatives are forever playing defense: we love to complain, but can't create any real solutions.

There are memes, and there is disinformation deliberately intended to mislead voters. (AND Dems ignore their own violations.) Perhaps if memes had a little tag to distinguish them from news or voter info, all would be protected.

You mean like a blue check-mark, or something?

Not the fake authority of a check mark but a little smiley face meaning, "this is a JOKE, people!" Wouldn't that have saved our friend from prosecution?

I can easily imagine that the same soulless jackals prosecuting him on the current flimsy facts would also argue that any emoji added merely aids the conspiracy to suppress voting by attempting to gain approbation by the inclusion.

It makes no less sense than their current narrative.

It’s called freedom of speech. Ya know the first amendment sorry if someone isn’t smart enough to determine a joke.

Expand full comment

But the "idiot" who can't determine a joke is not the one going to prison! Perhaps you didn't have time to read far into the Twitter links under discussion, otherwise you would see the difficulty of distinguishing some "memes" from voter info. Social media can and should develop norms to protect free speech as well as readers looking for accurate news and info.

There's disinformation and then there's the disinformed. If you rely on random social media posts as your source of news, well... always consider the source.

Great! But I don't think you'll succeed, considering how freemasonry infiltrated all the judiciary system and secret services (founded by them, by the way).

7 points you need to be aware of:

1. The root cause of most political problems is freemasonry. They are the deep state. They infiltrated all levels of power. We need a law forcing them to publicly disclose membership to secret societies under obedience to a higher rank, whose orders are above patriotism.

2. They forge currencies and buy media, listed corporations, puppeticians, etc. We need freedom of legal tender and currencies based on real assets (gold, silver, copper, lithium, flour, canola oil, whatever real and unforgeable). Kill the Federal Reserve:

Since you are suing him, it may be interesting for your readers to know a little about Andy Slavitt's background. I will never understand how the former CEO of Ingenix could go from being asked by Democratic Senators how he can sleep at night (after running the company at the center of what is probably the biggest fraud the health insurance/care system has ever seen) to being appointed to run Obamacare just a few years later. I guess the corruption doesn't really surprise me. But it was an eye opener for me at how open they are and how complicit the media is in choosing to ignore his history.

a cynical person (not me) would posit that there is only 1 party in america, and then there's trump

Expand full comment

Actually I’m starting to agree. The Uniparty showed its face in numbers last week when the RINOs (McConnell, Paul, Ryan, and all the rest) joined forces with Chuckey Schumer to denounce Tucker Carlson for daring to air J6 footage that said Uniparty had not approved of in its relentless indictment of Trump.

So I will amend my comment to “The America First” side (my side) vs. the unwitting “Uniparty / Globalist / Corporatist / Climate Crisis … etc.” side (essentially the rebranded Marxist theology side … oxymoron intended… because regular rebranding is necessary to obfuscate meaning for an ahistoric public).

In one massive group you have the radical Democrats, the clueless Democrats, the Democrats who would vote for Hitler if he were alive and a Democrat, you have the Uniparty, and all these vote Democrat no matter what, it's tribal, it's a religion, it's their identity cemented in stone.

Then you have the rest of us. I don't identify with any political party at this point, but one thing I can say for sure: No way on earth I would vote for a Democrat in the next election. I don't understand the mentality of someone who would vote for any Democrat because he is a Democrat, with no consideration of what he stands for. Both parties need to change, but the Democrat party is currently out of control. And those in the Uniparty need to re-register as Democrats.

Interesting fact: Generally, a sitting President may not be sued. It may be possible after the President leaves office. I am not a lawyer, just a citizen, but over the years that dictum has been followed. The possibility of holding his advisors for advice to deny a Constitutional right. The "Clear and Present Danger, along with Bad Tendency, Public verses Private" have been. settled by the Supremes in various cases. It is yet to be seen if the President can be held accountable for deny a Constitutional right. Congratulations, and I hope you prevail.

Right but one of those impeachment proceedings occurred after he left office. Regardless of whether he was impeached or not or convicted or not, starting impeachment proceedings after a president left office set a precedent.

Trump was impeached a few days before he left office on the 20th, Controversy arose as to can you convict a Politician after he left office. Some said yes some said no, the media brought forth the Belknap case in which a prior politician was made to appear before the Senate for disposition of the case. Trump has not been called. We have skated from a suit of a Sitting President, which is a legal matter to impeachment which is a political action of which the Constitution mandates removal from office.

9 out of 10 judges are communist. They take an oath to defend the Constitution then demean it with their rulings. That one judge that stands with the Constitution do it only to look like they actually believe in what is stands for. Deep down they are communists and could care not a bit for the people. They stand and are beholden with the people that gave them their judgeship. I wouldn’t trust anyone of them as far as I could throw them.

Optogenetics, what is your take on this technology? You can purchase generations of JAX mice genetically modified with opsin proteins. Could optogenetics be so intoxicating to those in power, with their incessant need to control others, that they would deploy this technology on the unsuspecting masses? The technology to genetically create opsin proteins in human cells work the similar to the mRNA technology. It requires the same lipid nanotechnology to deliver across the blood brain barrier , with the ability to specify where the opsin proteins land the brain, once created by our cells the opsin proteins can then be controlled by light. Curious to hear your thoughts. The FDA just approved up to 4 mRNA SHOT for infants, what is driving this kind of insane decision.
