Coca Cola, Honda, Verizon and Unilver for censoring conservatives
"...Despite Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg outlining several steps the social network will take to combat hate speech ahead of the 2020 presidential election Friday, companies including Unilever, Honda, Verizon and Coca-Cola have joined the protest."
Of course we know that the DNC gives them the definition of "hate speech."

Unilever has been pretty lame as a stock investment over the past five years.

Globalists all. Unilever was totally behind all things EU and absolutely pissed about Brexit. Coca Cola (and Pepsi) sell a boat load (literally) of our fresh water packaged in plastic bottles that wind up in the Oceans after the Chinese drink them. Honda obviously lives on global trade, and Verizon wants cheap chips from China.
But seriously are we really going to let the globalists destroy our Bill of Rights? Disagreeing is not hate speech and if it becomes that we need another Revolution targeted not against our citizens but these corporations.

The truth sounds like hate speech to those that hate the truth

RE: Coca Cola, Honda, Verizon and Unilver for censoring conservatives
Unfortunately, until conservative mobs start showing up and breaking crap---the Brown Shirt mob terrorism and intimidation tactics used by the left insures the radical left will be the only voice anyone is worried about appeasing. Apparently, thats how free speech works these days. While I dont subscribe to every one of Rush's "undeniable truths"---I do agree with him when he says that the world is governed by the aggressive use of force. Whoever is most willing to use force will always get their way. That is an undeniable fact of life. In other words, when right wing mobs start storming CNN and the NY Times----what do you want to bet they start taking a less incendiary, more fact based middle of the road tone to their news? Political tactics is a copy cat business. Eventually, both sides are going to start using a tactic that is proven to work---be it negative ad campaigns---or in this case----violent mob intimidation tactics.
I have ever reason to believe this is probably going to get much uglier before it gets better.

Hate speech is an effective end to free speech. To me the only speech that should be banned is speech that directs violence against a person or group of people due to any demographic. Saying you disagree with BLM platform or homosexuality is a sin is NOT hate speech.

Europe (and the rest of the world) does not have the same freedoms we have. Even Canada doesn't.
