Do you really think the founding fathers intended to allow private companies to deny God given rights? Really??
Call this mistakes of the founders, part 2.
I previously posted in part 1 about how the founders failed to spell out punishments for violating the Constitution, and in particular the Bill Of Rights. They should have easily been able to foresee wannabe tyrants seeking office and getting into office, and then blatantly violating various rights. With only narrowly defined treason as the sole punishment, and the long running practice of a drawn out legal process to swat down laws and regulations left wingers enact, people suffer long periods where their rights are violated.
The right to keep and bear arms may be the most abused by left wingers, but with the Corona scamdemic/plandemic many other rights were trampled. Everyone can check out part 1 now, as I’ve removed the paywall that was halfway down.
There are examples of things much harder to foresee in the late 1700s, however, such as private corporations effectively denying people their God given rights. (The first installment of what Elon Musk has dubbed “The Twitter Files” being released makes this very topical.) At the time the Constitution was written, there were few if any really large corporations. There certainly wasn’t any kind of “social media”, nor were there any “tech companies” like there are today either.
There weren’t many ways for any business to monitor what people had to say either, unless someone was very prominent and outspoken. So given the context of life in the late 1700s, it was very difficult to foresee private corporations doing much of anything to deprive people of their rights. Thus it’s understandable if the language of the Bill Of Rights does not specifically prohibit the acts of private companies.
In contrast, today it’s very, very, easy to see left wing fascists doing everything they can to deprive others of their rights. Not just online censorship of speech they don’t like, but depriving people of their livelihoods and working to force them to get injected with a highly experimental and very dangerous and deadly gene therapy that has already killed hundreds of thousands (and probably millions worldwide), with very little to no benefit, and in fact even negative efficacy with respect to protecting people from the virus that it is claimed to be a “vaccine” for.
The left wing fascists in this country will do everything they can to control others in this country, the Bill Of Rights be damned. I keep calling them fascists for very good reasons, and I’m going to keep calling them fascists going forward.
Part 1 of “The Titter Files” shows once again, for the thousandth time if not more, that democrat government officials have worked behind the scenes to violate the right to free speech. And of course in my last post I showed that they are no longer even trying to hide it. They’re doing it right out in the open as they try to keep right side Twitter users censored.
For now though, let’s forget that fascist democrat politicians and government officials are and have been involved in censoring their political opponents. And let’s forget about section 230 and the very obvious fact that if a tech company creates a “platform” such that they are not a publisher and thus are not liable for the content on that platform, then of course section 230 does NOT grant them the right to censor legal content. A “platform” is NOT for the creator to speak and edit and censor, it is for the users of the platform to speak freely as long as the speech is not illegal. Otherwise there is no need whatsoever for the creator to have special content protection, and they would be called a publisher or something similar and NOT a “platform”.
Let’s just consider the case of a private company that employs people or provides services to people, such as a factory or a financial institution. And for whatever reasons, the owners and/or management of that company decide to hire and fire or so business based on how any potential or existing employees or customers exercise their various God given rights. (Remember, per the Declaration Of Independence, rights come from God, and NOT from government.)
So if for example, any of the employees or customers publicly express support for Donald Trump, they can be fired, or an applicant can be refused employment based on that person’s exercise of their right to freedom of speech in a similar way, or customers can be denied service or be cut off after service has started.
Do you really think that the founding fathers intended for it to work that way?? If yes, how stupid are you?? Do you think that just because the 1st amendment starts with “Congress shall make no law…”, that the founders were fine with the idea that private companies could come along and enact rules and policies depriving people of the right to free speech, the right to assemble, freedom of religion and etc.??
Do you think that all past supreme court decisions have really been based on the text of the Constitution and the spirit of the Bill Of Rights as a series of concrete definitions of freedom?? Are you stupid enough to claim that “Well that person doesn’t have to work at that company or do business with that company.”? How’s that work if the majority or all of the companies in that person’s field, or all financial institutions available are doing the same vile crap??
Now what about freedom of religion? Can a company hire and fire based on religion?? No, they cannot. What if someone owns a gun per the 2nd amendment? Should that be grounds for firing or refusing to do business with someone? Of course not. What if someone is charged with a crime, is found not guilty, but during their trial they exercised their 5th amendment right and did not testify? You think private companies should be able to fire people or make business decisions over that?? If you’re a complete idiot maybe you think that.
Why in the hell would anyone with any logical reasoning skills at all, come out and claim that private companies can hire and fire or refuse to do business with someone based on the exercise of the right to freedom of speech???
Clearly, and in fact very clearly, the founders would not have even considered it to be okay for private companies to hire, fire, and limit doing business based on speech, unless it was perhaps speech directly attacking the company in public, and also probably unsubstantiated attacks. (You have to have whistleblower protections that allow for criticism of illegal/unethical/dangerous/etc. behavior on the part of a company.)
I don’t care what SCOTUS decisions have been “handed down” in the past, or how they have been interpreted since. It is completely absurd to claim that private companies can severely restrict your God given rights, and the founding fathers were perfectly okay with that. For the Bill Of Rights to truly protect the rights of everyday citizens, the limits found there on the government must also apply to private companies to the fullest extent possible.
