Mitch McConnel Bravely Tells The Corporate Elite To Stay Out Of Politics

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell lashed out at corporate America on Monday, warning CEOs to stay out of the debate over a new voting law in Georgia that has been criticized as restricting votes among minorities and the poor.

"Corporations will invite serious consequences if they become a vehicle for far-left mobs to hijack our country from outside the constitutional order," McConnell told a news conference in his home state of Kentucky.

Big business ties with Republicans began fraying under former President Donald Trump's leadership and the party's focus on voting restrictions has soured businesses embracing diversity as key to their work force and customer base. Major Georgia employers Coca-Cola and Delta Air Lines have spoken out against the law signed by Governor Brian Kemp, and Major League Baseball pulled the 2021 All-Star Game out of the state over the law strengthening identification requirements for absentee ballots and making it a crime to offer food or water to voters waiting in line.


Uh oh, Mitch is talking tough again. Watch out Coke.
So let me get this straight.

Corporations are taking away our first amendment rights by censoring Conservatives on social media, and that is Ok.

But a Republican tells corporations they need to straighten up and he becomes the threatening fascist insurgent?

LOL.

Corporate America have gone to war with the GOP, and with over 70 million Americans.

God forbid they get angry about it.

How does it feel to lick the arse of the top 1% as a Lefty?
You do understand that most corporations are run by fascist authoritarian principles right? They aren’t democracies
 
They are doing something that only government should have the power to do, if at all.
Proof positive you don't have a clue what the first amendment is about.
No, no...hear him out for a moment. What he's saying is he wants the government to control Twitter and Google and other platforms instead of corporations. He wants only the Government to have power to cancel people on social media

...BY GOD! TemplarKormac is a COMMUNIST!
 
Still, it's not violating anyone's right to free speech.

It is. They are doing something that only government should have the power to do, if at all.
You have it backwards. Government is expressly prohibited from regulating speech. The rest of us can "regulate" it all we want.

If you regulate the speech of millions of people, you are by proxy influencing how our government functions.

Agreed. And we all have a right to influence how our government functions, even corporations.

Actually, you two are more prone to wanting government to do that than I would.

Corporate America is the GOP. The Republican party is a wholly owned subsidiary of big business.
If that was remotely true then why are they coming out against this voter ID that makes Georgia’s voter laws just about the same as every other state?

All these big corporations are run by leftist morons that supported BLM and Biden.
How did leftist loons become CEOs of major corporations?!
 
Ummm. No. Corporations are exercising the first amendment rights by monitoring their private platforms without government interference.
Umm... So Trump and AOC can't ban people from their tweets because it's an open forum, but Twitter can because it's not an open forum?

You just said and I quote "only the government should have power to do, if at all"

AKA You're a Communist. Sorry, your words not mine. Have a good day, Commie!

"if at all"

Which is proof positive that you cannot read complete sentences, nor understand the nuances of the English language.

Alright, so explain to me what the First Amendment actually is.

It's more about what it isn't, than what it is.

The first amendment guarantees you that the government will not censor your speech. It does not mean anyone has to listen to, print, or broadcast it. Nor does it mean someone won't punch you in the snoot for calling him the "N" word.

A prohibition on laws interfering with, among other things, free speech.

And so the pivot begins. I can remember when Democrats hated corporations, now they are defending them.

Is it because they're doing something they like? Such as censoring conservative speech?

And by that token, if it guarantees free speech without reprisal from the government, should it not allow the same government to punish those who infringe on the free speech of the population?

Of course. Hypocrisy abounds. This is the "bake the cake" issue turned inside out. And everyone dutifully switches side without giving it a thought.

Yup.

Very simple. The Left has indoctrinated our future leaders in Left wing universities all across the country.

Corporations cannot take away our First Amendment rights. Where the heck did you get your education? Trump University?

When they exist as one-half of a monopoly on the social media industry, they certainly can.

Recently, having full control over social media seems to have been a game changer.
