Today Pam Bondi said:

>"There's free speech and then there's hate speech, and there is no place, especially now, especially after what happened to Charlie, in our society...We will absolutely target you, go after you, if you are targeting anyone with hate speech."

With a preemptive rebuttal, this was directly contradicted by none other than Charlie Kirk, who had this to say:

>“Hate speech does not exist legally in America. There’s ugly speech. There’s gross speech. There’s evil speech. And ALL of it is protected by the First Amendment. Keep America free.”

What kind if speech is this considered? Man I must be a horrible person because I laugh so hard to the just kill them or or something part, it's just so casual. This is the most watched news network.

An unfortunate reality of PID and internet blow horn. I don't see it as a free speech violation unless platforms intended to keep users anonymous defame or dox their base. Clearly a well informed user would still assess the risk vector of being hacked and exposed.


Not sure on legality, but my employer insisted everyone remove their employer affiliation from social media profiles as saying something that would draw negative PR could get you fired. Been in industry for a couple decades, first time I seen a don't say dumb shit online when linked to employer. Our marketing and a bit of sales operates with the social media space so got weird last couple years.



Used to be you could say whatever you want outside of work minus nut job threats. Unless in a executive type role.


As for Charlie Kirk fanbois, seen a lot of reactive hate coming from his Christian base. Jesus would be ashamed

Every employer has had it in my contract, is it entirely enforceable, perhaps not.

People who think contracts are entirely enforceable are often wrong. For instance I had one once with an extremely aggressive noncompete clause with the geographical area of all of Western Canada including Territories.

Everything was hunky dory until the day I put in notice and it became vicious and they did threaten legal ramifications should I compete so I got my lawyer involved, and not a remote chance they could enforce that size of an area due to infringement on my ability to generate a living for myself, it was considered far too predatory.

With all that said probably the average person isn't going to take the time to go through such a process nor can they carry the cost of legal fees until settlement.

I think the non-compete has always been challenging to uphold in court. Maybe in the orbit of certain IP it becomes a big deal. Minnesota banned non compete in 2023 so havenmt had to sign one since.

Non disclosure agreements are fun too :) Can't say more

There is no such thing as hate speech.
It's just speech they hate....

Am I not understanding the context? If they don’t accept the help they can get and try to better their lives the best they can why be on this planet? Seriously why? If you are just going to waste away on the streets and not get the help you need and deserve why not just end it?

1. There are many sad reasons people are homeless.

2. There are ways to get help.

3. Not accepting help so that you can better yourself makes you dead weight.
