Donald Trump is running for president

[iamdef]

I try my best to avoid FB convos, i'll browse the comments tho.
 

One dude tried to liken what trump wants to do to if somebody poisoned 20 grapes out of bunch and mixed them in a bowl and trump is trying to prevent us from eating a poisoned grape SMH

 

[getback]

 
its really not. im saying he thinks of minorities, liberals, and educated people as 3 separate groups. seeing a world renown author give a political statement, and you think he worded it wrong? *shrugs* im not trying to imply anything other than what im saying. he thinks those are 3 separate groups of people...

So you think Stephen King truly believes that liberals and minorities can't be educated too?

Like there can't be a venn diagram in which people fit into multiple groups?

That's a reach.

Umm in literally the sentence before that he uses three different groups of people to describe a single person...

i said im not trying to imply anything. L.O.L. at the suggestion of a venn diagram. thats gold. i dnno, maybe subconsciously he does see them as 3 different groups. doesnt really matter to me. i dunno. i just have a hard time seeing someone i know to be a brilliant author making a mistake that blatant.

actually he called him AN entertainer, A carnival man, A buffoon. thats 3 adjectives is it not? i dont think those 3 terms describe entire groups or sects of people naturally. i mean of course you can say "you buffoons" or "all the entertainers" etc etc but thats not what happened there. minority and liberals and educated people are definitely describing 3 GROUPS of people. but again, lets not dig too deep. i really just found it interesting he said that. Freudian slip? slip of the key? who knows.

So now Trump is "no longer funny" according to Hillary LMAO.

Funny enough,Hillary and Trump are both on the same side when it comes to internet freedom...

Need her/Trump to explain how to "shut down" parts of the internet without becoming China/Saudi Arabia

You reaching famb.

Not only do their comments sound different, I'm not buying the slippery slop argument either.

 

[rolaholic]

How is it a reach? She basically laughed off the free speech concern my dude due to terror concerns . Sounds like so many of those regressive governments around the globe. Sorry but can't get down with internet cencorship

No she did not dude famb. All she said was "free speech, etc" in the most calm even tone. She is clearly used said it that say because we know the arguments people are going to make.

There was no laughing off

And she seems to be saying that government agencies need a way to hack into terror suspects phones and PCs.

Seems like Trump is saying the government needs a way to control the internet.

You're letting your Bernie love get the best of you again brah.

Did you hear her plan? http://www.insidesources.com/americ...tial-candidates-dont-understand-the-internet/

What she's suggesting won't disrupt ISIS at all when they can use encryptions not based int he States. Just calling it how I see it *shrugs*,liking Bernie has nothing to do with it . Trump's saying the gist of what she said but only in much more Trumplike fashion

Where in that article does it spell out her plan doe?

And there is this quote

While neither Clinton nor Trump, like almost every government official, have neglected to offer concrete solutions for government access to encrypted communications services — beyond getting law enforcement and the tech sector together “to figure out the best way forward” — suggesting third-party access at all ignores what experts have been saying for months: any backdoor between the sender and receiver adds to the complexity of encryption, and the likelihood of a vulnerability for criminals, bad actors or terrorists themselves to exploit.

-Famb I'll be more than willing to shade Hillary if need be. This just seems like something I mildy disagree with her on.

But mostly just sounds like a politician, politicking

Gimmie a solid link to her plan so I can read it. Or even maybe the entire Brookings speech so I can get a better context of that soundbite these sites are jumping on.

-------

What she said and what Trump said where different though. She wants ways to disrupt ISIS, Trump wants some control over the internet.

 

[rolaholic]

She vaguely wants tech companies to provide "back door" access to user data in case of suspected terrorists but they've argued that hackers could easily use that to their advantage and attack regular people. It was at a Washington event so there's not really video anywhere

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...-help-disrupt-isis-what-does-that-even-mean//

Just the irony of it all is ridiculous given what's she's been under fire for recently...

-I don't see the irony. She didn't have a private server for security reason. It made her less secure as a matter of fact

-And her plan is short sighted for a couple reasons, ok, but I really think you're making a mountain out of a mole hill.

Someone needs to check stephen king's privilege for that comment. SMH.

Why?

 

[rexanglorum]

I normally detest tech bros but I agree with them and their sentiment that governments have an almost metabolic desire to fear and curtail a free and open internet.

The fact is that clandestine groups have operated, often with transnational reach, for centuries. They did it without the internet. We need to remember that what is done today to stop the "a rab" will be used on us eventually. The fact is that a universal ability to spy on the exact content of everyone's online communications will be abused and will be used to undermine and to blackmail political dissenters and opposition political figures.

I regard these policy ideas with extreme suspicion and I think, as a rule, we should be weary of any policy that invokes "terrorism" or "national security et cetera."

Surprised that Eagle aint try and stand on his head.

Probably a repost, but possibly the only good thing that has come out of this:

Trump bought www.JebBush.com -- now it redirects to Trump's own site

 

[AZwildcats]

I think Trump has ruined the chances that any GOP candidates win the election. He must be in Hilary's payroll
