 John Kerry Says the First Amendment is Getting in the Way of Online Censorship
Story by James Lynch • 15h • 2 min read
 
Former secretary of state John Kerry recently spoke at a World Economic Forum panel and lamented the First Amendment for being a roadblock to countering online “misinformation” and “disinformation” about climate change.

Responding to an audience question about “climate misinformation,” Kerry described how social media make it difficult to form consensus and said the First Amendment makes it difficult to weed out “disinformation” online.
 
“But, look, if people go to only one source, and the source they go to is sick and has an agenda, and they’re putting out disinformation, our First Amendment stands as a major block to the ability to be able to hammer it out of existence,” Kerry said.

If your arguments are too weak, then sensor the opposition is the new democrat political model.

Well, Lurch, if we'd had something like that during Viet Nam, you'd be moldering in a cell somewhere and we would not have to read or hear your bullsh*t.

Too bad we didn't have it - just for that reason.
