In Brandenburg v. Ohio (1969), the Court overturned the conviction of Clarence Brandenburg, a member of the Ku Klux Klan who had made inflammatory statements, by insisting that it would only punish advocacy that "is directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or produce such action."
The Bradenburg “test” is still the principle used today to legally judge advocacy of violence. Imminent and produce being the key words here.
Per the rules which have been horrendously written. Rule 2: Do not engage in speech that promotes, advocates, glorifies, or endorses violence.
As there is no context provided for what constitutes “violence” I’m going to start reporting every comment since words can fall under violence. As people here regularly play games, any mention of any game that contains violence, real or imaginary, must be removed as the display of violence is promoting of it. Any media that has glorified or promoted violence will also not be permitted as to reference to them would also promote violence.
I would highly encourage DoM or AoV to rewrite rule 2 and 16. As it would only take a few people tired of the subjective subjugation to start spamming reports.
There is nothing objective in rule 2. By its own definition anyone that supports the revolutionary war is glorifying violence.
There would be nothing objective if I expanded the definition. You would simply re-define words even further into oblivion. You will expand the definition of a word not only to include it's opposite, but to include that which does not exist, and then you would tell me to re-write the rule again because it's contradictory, because you defined it to be after the fact.
You are not making a genuine argument.
No, all you would simply have to do is state the criminal definition of violence. This would set definition. Rule 2 could even be erased as anything that falls under illegal activity is counted in rule 1.
The criminal definition of violence is not physically possible on the internet.
And bullshit it would be counted as illegal activity under Rule 1. You would not accept the definition of "illegal" let alone "activity" because those are also undefined, and could (in your mind) be framed as the lack of both.
You are asking for the abolition of rules because you have chose to abolish their very definitions, and then assert your own definitions while refusing to engage in the same criticism of your new definitions. You are making a Leftist argument, and you know it: this is a common tactic of Critical Theory. Challenge the definition and expand it's scope to the point of absurdity, then abolish the very concept itself. Then in the chaos, re-instate your own new definition as the only correct one.
You are not arguing in good faith. We've both been watching the Left play this game for to long to mistake what you're doing as anything else.
This is adorable. The criminal definition of advocation of violence is defined. It is applicable to the internet. It does not meet the standards you wish to rule over others by so you ignore this standard and impose your own. Illegal activity is defined because US law defines it. You have no definition of violence so you can judge what applies as you see fit. You have yet to make any rational argument as why rule two uses the terms promoting and glorification as they have nothing to do with advocation. You have yet to make any rational argument as to why violence is not defined in rule 2. We know why, it’s because you want the power to decide the application of vague rules.
