@ryan Imagine the horror of being able to "speak to millions of people without oversight or regulation".

@ryan Translation:"We, the establishment, can not have free agents as competitors, individuals who, owing to their intelligence, destroy our persuasion in propaganda, and thus undermine our power and social control. Why, if they were to lead millions of Americans to truth, they might reject us and we would lose everything."

@ryan Please don't vote for this woman, she is a complete stooge.Trump is a conman who will absolutely break every single promise he makes, but the reality is that he is the better candidate at this point.

@ryan –I've encountered this twice on social media, but neither poster has offered context or a link to the full interview. Presumably you've taken a moment to find it, if not to watch it? Would you link?

@Starfia I'm not judging you if you want to vote for this person but there is zero justification for the words in this clip, regardless of context. If you support her you should pressure her to take them back

@ryan –Well, I'm not an American citizen, so that's immaterial.I think context matters for at least these reasons:• It's unclear who "he" is who has "lost his privileges," or why he supposedly has• It's unclear whether this is about free speech or some other matter• It's unclear when she said this or whether she indeed has changed her mind since

@ryan –Hey, Ryan: I've found more on this.It looks like the video is five years old, and Kamala is commenting on whether Trump should be suspended from Twitter according to Twitter's own platform rules on the basis of threats to another person.It seems that RFK Jr, in sharing the video on September 2, simply lied and said she was talking about shutting down Musk's platform if she were elected.The original interview shows she's not talking about Musk or the issue of free speech at all.

@ryan –Here's the link to the transcript so you and others can check for yourselves.https://transcripts.cnn.com/show/se/date/2019-10-15/segment/04I'm not surprised at all by this, but I'm afraid you were wrong about there being zero justification for her words in this – yes – context. If I were that wrong about something I couldn't even have been bothered to check, I'd be asking myself what else I'm wrong about.Thanks for listening.

@Starfia That's pretty funny, I almost forgot all about the fake whistleblower story with Ciaramella, so the context is indeed very different but the heart of the matter is still regulation of the media by the state which is considered particularly egregious in American civil society, or at least used to be. Thanks for the correction
