If I talk about the trail of tears, gaza or criticise Biden I will get put on the no fly list?
Ask Snowden, Assange, or Manning what happens to ppl who expose US war crimes.
Also the US has a ton of political prisoners: https://mronline.org/2022/08/11/the-united-states-has-many-political-prisoners-heres-a-list/
There are people looking at 20 year prison sentences for talking about Gaza you fucking boob
As I watch the goalposts flee into the horizon I ask you: should talking about something outside with a bunch of other people around you be a compounding factor?
Also, you credulous fucking idiot, what do you think happened to civil rights organizers? (The ones who weren't murdered)
As if you don't already believe the dumbest fucking shit imaginable
Quite possibly. Depending on how loud and active you are about it.
What exactly is your point?
Yes if you say in a social setting you are going to kill the president, or if you called in a bomb threat to an airline, these are social nonos that can get you on the no fly list.
That's litterally not the question I asked though is it?
I don't answer false dichotomies.
If YoU siMPlY MurDEr SomEOne it’S A sOCiaL NonO
If. You. Say.
I understand and you’re trying to critique “social nonos” (laws) so where do you draw the line? You can generally say whatever opinion about someone but you can’t say whatever you want to do to someone.
