Everything is fascist propaganda now, huh.

This thread is basically "A lot of american butthurt conservatives are angry that Canada, an independent state, doesn't want american bullshit excuse of a news channel in their country".

No one here bothers to define any buzzword they use "free speech", "free news". No one of those things are absolute and should not be absolute. Even when they do they define it so vague that its unusable. If you speech spawns hate towards marginalized people it should be banned.

You are American conservative, most likely to be libertarian. "Authoritarian" to you just means state intervention so I will just politely discard your comment.

It means "State intervention I don't like."

I recall reading conservative articles that called for a violent crackdown (Tiananmen square style) on Occupy Wall Street Protesters.

That's their commitment to free speech as well. "Absolute free speech for me while none for thee."

So, we all know that Fox haven't promoted violence against the LGBT.

And opposing the LGBT isn't the same as "inciting hatred" against them. It's just the latest censorship of an untrendy opinion.

I am a Fellow Canadian, and I disagree, FOX shouldn’t be banned, yeah they can be bat shit at times but that doesn’t we should ban it, and why say that we Canadians are smart enough to do that and the Americans the exact opposite? Seems a little misinformed to me.

And yes, Justin Trudeau is a Turd Sandwich.

Well, look at how the right-wing is brainwashing Americans.

I'd beg to differ that left-wing policies are unpopular; they're superior in this climate.

Hello!?

You think that calling trans people "groomers" and saying "leftists will kill America" won't incite violence?

Also, the right-wing has been the culprit of terrorism and extremism in this day and age. If you think FOX isn't causing violence, check yourself on the news you consume.

Yeah, painting a whole demographic as rapist pedophiles who want to brainwash your children into a cult is not and could not ever incite any kind of hatred.
