This was supposed to be a thing years ago but never happened presumably because Steam wants a cut of every virtual currency sale and LL isn't about to give anyone a cut of their Linden$ sales.

I agree but there's really no use trying to argue with the owners that require voice. They don't care about the music, they want "personality" DJs who are in love with the sound of their own voice.

Typically a stream URL would just be the server address and the port. Try http://my.powerstream.live:8098

The thugs storming the capitol were not conservatives. They were domestic terrorists. And that´s it. And absolutely nothing you ever write here can spin that.

No, who gets called what is dependent on whether a group is protesting against being murdered by the police to a greater degree than whites due to the color of their skin, or whether they are a mob trying to take over government due to belief in conspiracy theories and attempting to enforce their belief that 'might makes right', circumventing the democratic process.
Spin it however you like, there were multiple violent riots over the past year where the media refused to call them anything but "mostly peaceful protesters" and then there was one riot by conservatives and suddenly they're "domestic terrorists." Just them though. Not anyone else. There's no ulterior motive involved though. Don't be silly. We're just shutting down all the possible platforms those "domestic terrorists" could be using except the primary one they actually used which is Facebook. Don't be concerned about that though. Facebook is your ally.

2/3rd of republican voters still believe that the elections were rigged. So please tell me: Do you really want to be united with stupidity? Or, in worst case, united with a fascist mob? Appeasement never was a good idea while facing extremism.
Cure stupidity, before you start to "unite".
So what should be done with all these "stupid people?" Come on, tell us.

Freedom of speech cannot be used to defend fascism, stalinism or any kind of regime that kills democracy, period.
Freedom of speech can be used to defend anything. That's why it's called freedom of speech. I'm terribly sorry your dictatorial views aren't mainstream in the US. I'm sure they will be soon though.

You try to defend the unthinkable. that needs to be denounced with arguments but sometimes not even those are enough.
I can not let anyone that defends regimes that lead to the deaths of millions in the past to try to rise again without an answer!
And i lack the skills to argument by words you can bet will defend them in person as i did already in my youth, to stop the seed of evil to spread again.
I'm defending freedom of speech and freedom of thought. I'm terribly sorry you consider those unpleasant concepts. As for your last statement...

Well, I'm a German. I spent the night to watch the congress session on tv because I was curious how it works overthere. I saw hords of people breaking in the capitol, destroying doors and windows, yelling they will hang senators, kicking and beating officers, stealing things - the list is endless. If that were peaceful protesters in your eyes, what do you consider as terrorists?
So I take it you didn't see the mob attacking the White House a few months back doing the same things. The media assured us those were "peaceful protesters" while this mob are "domestic terrorists." Who gets called what depends on which side you prefer, that was my point.

You know for someone that claimed they were going to ignore all my posts 2 pages back you certainly seem intent to reply to all of them now.

All parties supporting democracy are antif-fascist by default.
So you agree with rounding up the Japanese during WW2 now. How very anti-fascist of you.

Nice try. The difference is fascist regimes put you into concentration camps or or kill you in another way. While in democratic systems you get away with the same offense.
Which party is now talking about rounding up the "peaceful protesters", oh sorry, "domestic terrorists" and sending them off to Gitmo? Hint, it's the "anti-fascist" party which also had no problem rounding up the "Japs" and putting them into camps in 1942.

Funny when fascists quote Orwell in order to hide that they are fascists.
And there it is. Out come the rhetorical knives when you have no other argument to make.

Fine, if you consider our democracies being fascist dictatorships, join comrade Xi at Hong Kong. I am sure he´ll welcome you.
Ironically my first reaction to your post was that it was exactly what I'd expect to read from the PRC.

Democracy has laws and regulations to protect itself from people who threaten it. What you think and what you say is your business, but if you threaten democracy by words and actions you outlaw yourself.
No mercy. Democracy does not include surrender.
Your definition of democracy sounds eerily similar to what you claim to be fighting against.

Well, so you consider the mob which stormed the capitol, which was ideologically and practically incited, prepared and executed in open by Donald Trump and his enablers NOT being dangerous?
Your theory is proven wrong. It only is popular among right wing conservatives who still consider fascists to be their "dirty little mislead family members".
As opposed to the other mob that tried to storm the White House a few months back? Those were just peaceful protesters though, right?

You cant defend a Dictatorship as a way of governing and expect the ones that know what that means to stay silent!
I can't? You seem to be inadvertently doing quite a good job of it.

Luckily for us, most of Europe still remembers what it was like the last time fascists were allowed to gain power, having either suffered from it or lived directly under their rule. Most of our laws reflect that. For America, it's an entirely new experience, so they as a country lack the same kind of cultural immune response. Yet, luckily again, it seems cooler heads will prevail even then, given how it's shaping up.
If "everyone I deem a fascist must be silenced by the state and driven underground by the social media mob" is your idea of cooler heads prevailing well then, there's not much else to say really.

I will just ignore the posts of those that lucky never lived under the rule of a dictator. It is behind your compression.
Of course you will, after all you are a proponent of "true democracy."

True Democracy is when a Country has a Article 46.
"True democracy" is when every citizen has an equal voice and a right to express it whether you, or anyone else, likes it or not.

When people start qualifying a word with the adjective 'True' I suspect the word is not being used with its proper meaning.
No, she's speaking in classic doublespeak where words are redefined to mean whatever is politically expedient at the moment.

This topic just shows how much hate and prejudice still exists here as in RL.
And that the neo fascists voices can still echo here as much as on there.
There is no right to freedom of speech for those that their only goal is to impose their way of thinking over the rest by any means!
And no True Democracy can allow the existence of any movements that has as the ultimate goal to replace it by a dictatorship.
The irony of your statements is off the *****ing chart. Go read 1984 again. This time remember it wasn't intended as an instruction manual.

Do you have an Internal Monologue?
in General Discussion Forum

I have an internal monologue, I find it very hard to imagine how one could even think without it. Then again I also have aphantasia, the inability to visualize with the mind's eye, so I suppose it's a good thing I have language to fall back on.
