In addition to taking advantage of automated systems, yes many groups are engaging in pressure campaigns on specific companies and organizations to engage in censorship right now.

If you’re not going to use the term in a colloquial context while you are in a colloquial setting, then you need to cite what source you are referencing for your definition. Given that you are talking about laws, then you need to recognize that every place defines things differently according to the law. So which law, where?

Being unnecessarily argumentative and snobby while at the same time not meeting your own standards is ridiculous.

It’s pretty clear that the people who have this take, regardless of party or political affiliation, don’t care. If they did care, they would listen. People who care don’t make threats. They listen.

Go check it out. They track democracies from all over the world. It is not partisan. They do not take pundits. They track policies and statements from the officials themselves. If you do not like actual sources, then I don’t know what to tell you. American candidates for the presidency have largely been on the authoritarian right for a decade. Candidates from both parties end up very close to each other on the chart.

The funniest thing about this comment is that it could be easily directed at you as well.

If you check out the research work done by the political compass, you see it’s actually a one party system wearing a two party outfit.

Letting Democrats take advantage of your vote and not listen to you over and over again it’s not a good strategy either. They don’t actually stop any of the things they used to fearmonger people with. They just wait so that they can use them as a threat again in the next election cycle. That’s an abusive relationship.

A lot of people feel justified in not actually listening to others and judging them from afar as what is happening. They feel justified in doing this for very specific reasons.

Who are the exact same people that you claim to be citing? I see the exact same people discussing all of these issues. The only thing you’re doing is discouraging them from talking about it if they’re not talking about it all at once which no one does on any subject.

This is an unoriginal take used to silence people who did not know about things like this before. Our media intentionally hides information about things like this. Our schools intentionally hide things like this. You can’t care about something if you don’t know it’s happening.

I worked for that campaign during that election cycle. You would think that the DNC and coordinated campaigns would learn that not listening to voters hurts you. Shaming them didn’t work last time either. They didn’t fund outreach. They didn’t listen to organizers on the ground. They didn’t care.

They’re all paying for it enthusiastically. I don’t care if some posture differently personally.

Ingredients

  • 6 servings Liquid Egg Whites, room temperature
  • 1/4 tsp Cream of Tartar
  • 5-6 drops Red Food Color (you can use beet powder mixed with water to make red food coloring)
  • 36 g (6 servings) Cheddar Cheese Powder ( homemade version if preferred, here is an example: https://www.tarladalal.com/how-to-make-cheese-powder-42964r )

Flavors

You can create whatever custom cheeto you want. If you like hot cheetos, don't skip the cayenne. If you don't like hot, then skip it. Feel free to add other flavors that are not listed. It's up to what you like.

  • 1-2 tsp Paprika (optional)
  • 1-2 tsp Cayenne Pepper (optional)
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder, optional
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil with cooking spray.
  2. Use a whisk to mix your egg whites and cream of tartar on high for a few minutes until your egg whites form stiff peaks. (When you pull the whisk out, the mixture looks like mountain peaks where your whisk came out.) 
  3. Add your red food color and mix a few more seconds until uniform.
  4. Line a large bowl or shallow dish with your cheese powder and spices.
  5. Using a piping bag or sandwich bag with a corner cut off, create long, red, stick shaped egg whites onto your cheese mixture. The thinner your the hole in your bag is, the crispier these will be. If you like the puffs instead, you can make them larger, but you'll want to watch closely to make sure the outside doesn't burn before they're fully cooked.
  6. Once in the cheese and spice mixture, spoon the mixture to fully coat each stick before placing it on your baking sheet. (If your Cheetos have trouble sticking together, your egg whites probably aren't stiff enough. You can continue mixing them and retry - or go straight to the baking sheet and spoon the cheese/spice mixture on top.)
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes. (I found that spraying a tiny bit of cooking spray on the top before going in the oven reduced any burning/scorching of the spices.)
