I hope they pass laws to put people who spread disinformation in jail, this way we can get rid of all the people on top spreading disinformation every day! Imprisonment by their own laws.

Jury in Douglass Mackey trial tells judge they cannot come to a unanimous decision
"We have completed our deliberations and we have not reached a unanimous decision. Please advise."

The Post Millennial (28 March 2023)
After the first full day of deliberations in the meme trial of Douglass Mackey, the jury sent a note saying that they had completed their deliberations and were unable to reach a unanimous decision as to his guilt.
"After the first full day of deliberations in the Douglass Mackey trial, the jury sent this note: 'We have completed our deliberations and we have not reached a unanimous decision. Please advise.' The judge sent them home for the night, told them to keep going in the morning," the Daily News' Brooklyn Court reporter John Annese reported.
"Brooklyn Federal Court Judge Ann Donnelly told the Mackey jurors, 'This is actually not unusual. By our terms you've only been deliberating for a little while.' She told them to take their time," Annese continued.
Mackey, who was charged with election interference, has been on trial in the Eastern District of New York on federal charges. His alleged crime was making a meme in the lead up to the 2016 presidential election encouraging those who wished to vote for Hillary Clinton to do so via text.
The Department of Justice alleged that this constituted election interference, even though they were unable to provide evidence that anyone on Twitter was fooled by Mackey's meme.
The defendant said that he wasn't committing "election intereference" and was merely trying to make a viral meme. This he did. Hillary Clinton supporters posted similar memes suggesting that Trump supporters vote by text. These people were not arrested or charged by the DOJ.
Mackey, who went by Ricky Vaughn on Twitter, was arrested in January 2021 on the charge of "conspiring with others in advance of the 2016 US Presidential Election to use various social media platforms to disseminate misinformation designed to deprive individuals of their constitutional right to vote," the DOJ said.
Early on in the trial, an expert witness for the defense withdrew from the trial after a reporter from the SPLC contacted him and asked, among other things, if his employer knew that he was testifying on Mackey's behalf.

10 years prison for a meme and the prosecution didn't show a single person that was harmed. He lived in Florida but trial and jury in NY. Total bull$#@!.
I just want objectivity on this forum and will point out flawed sources or points of view at my leisure.

Because of a meme?

What is worse about this.
Is that this person is likely facing decade of prison?
While actual criminals in New York City and other cities are being set free!
And are regaining the system if they are rearrested.

Face it. This country has been taken over. And he upset the ruling class.
"And now that the legislators and do-gooders have so futilely inflicted so many systems upon society, may they finally end where they should have begun: May they reject all systems, and try liberty; for liberty is an acknowledgment of faith in God and His works." - Bastiat

Didn't know there was a thread on this.
So, here's where we are at in AmeriKa.
You make a meme to "troll" people into voting by text for Hillary and you go to jail.
You make a meme to "troll" people into voting by text for Trump and you run for office.

In a world gone mad, no outrage can be validly assumed as beyond the pale of plausibility.
We get what we tolerate and we deserve what we get precisely because we tolerate it.
Our words make us the ghosts that we are.
Convincing the world he didn't exist was the Devil's second greatest trick; the first was convincing us that God didn't exist.
