I have posted this before but ..

26 years ago, a gunman entered
Dunblane Primary School in Scotland,
killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK
govt responded by enacting tight gun
control legislation. In the 9400+ days
since, there have been a total of O
school shootings in the UK.

@Marky_Jo3 If you googled it, you would see that there are plenty of them that require zero credit history or co-signer. But that doesn’t fit your narrative, so it goes ignored.

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 Depends on the loans you are getting. All of 30 seconds to Google it. I’m not full of shit at all. This is just you not caring if it doesn’t affect you🤷🏻‍♂️ and not believing it’s real for the same reason.

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 False. You can get those student loans without a co-signer. It is absolutely not the same. The housing market crashed in ‘08 because of predatory lending and a whole raft of rules were put in place to try to prevent it.

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 Free speech as enumerated in the constitution is specifically about government limits on it and irrelevant to this article.

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 Because the whole article is about the “limiting” of free speech by a business. Which is a non-issue because they are allowed to do so. It’s not an infringement of your rights.

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 Also, “absolute” free speech has never existed. There have always been restrictions. (“FIRE!” In a crowded public place etc…) But you are only constitutionally protected from government censorship, not business censorship.

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 You have absolute free speech. Private entities however, have zero obligation to host your speech. The ramifications of saying what you want could mean not being able to participate with those companies anymore. This isn’t hard.

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 Walk into a bank at 17 or 18 with no credit history or income and tell me what kind of mortgage you can get. The answer is none. But you could get $200k in student loans easy. Don’t play dumb.

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 It absolutely means they should. It’s their site. They choose what’s allowed and what isn’t. You agree to the terms of service

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 And the fact that the interest charged in so many of them makes them nearly impossible to pay back. Predatory lending is a very real thing.

[Derek Bannister @BannisterDerek]

@Marky_Jo3 It only means the government can’t restrict what you say. Anyone else can.

I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, diverting myself in now & then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.🚀

Asking for a friend: how does one repair heightened introversion and become a more social being? It’s always felt like such frustrating work but they’d like to try it. #findingmyselfbeforemiddleage

Dear @pizzahut , I order contactless delivery not because of covid, but because I’m usually not wearing pants and shouldn’t have to put them on just for this. Please tell your drivers to stop waiting at my door for to tell them I ordered contactless. #drivertraining
