If thats what she said, I agree with her.. but from what I heard she said that we should hold companies like twitter and youtube to a moral standard to censor free speech. Maybe im wrong though cause english is not my first language but I hope your right.

Yeah - she did talk about companies such as Twitter etc but I don't think she's referring to what could be argued as "minor" incidents of hate speech (such as valid opinions just being shared in the wrong way), but flat out defamatory posts that one would definitely be held accountable had they said that in a real-life setting. Most social media rules/conditions do outline their intolerance for excessive hate that goes beyond free speech etc - but how often are policies like that implemented? Facebook in my knowledge does remove posts that go against guidelines etc, but Twitter doesn't seem to do anything from what I've seen. I think that's what she's referring to - challenging companies to uphold the moral standards they claim to have.

I did not say anything against what you said.. your just too stupid to even make the argument and instead will accuse me of things and put words in my mouth and make fun of me.. I dont think I need to explain what I said cause its pretty clear.

That still means she wants to censor free speech.. I know why she wants to do it but its still wrong. You can block people and make your page privet and not post your personal life online if your effected by this. If we allow censorship, then everything will be s-xist, everything will be racist, and people who speak the truth that dont fit the current agenda will be censored.

Europe seems to be doing fine with restricted speech and actually good human beings are not afraid to voice their thoughts.

exactly

I can't consider freedom of speech when I read a response to a Gaga's tweet that says "kill yourself now." I mean, wtf? That is not freedom of speech. And the rest of the people are so wrong too, because if Gaga replied to that tweet in a angry mode, everyone (even here) would be like: "oh she is famous, she has to know that this is what happens when you are famous, just ignore it."

Excuse you? So Gaga has the problem? Not the person who tweeted that? 

That is NOT freedom of speech. That is simply HATE. And it should be stopped.

If I am on a Gaga video on youtube and read a comment like: well I didn't like this video because I don't understand what she means and I think he tried to put too much content so it is confusing

THAT is freedom of speech, giving your opinion with arguments and in a good mode.

But comments like: flopga you are so over you are pathetic I hope you die.

We as a society are going to accept that? Gaga has to accept that? No. 

That's it.

Freedom of speech can only truly be granted to those with a high moral self awareness. Otherwise everyone either turns into Donald trump, or the wbc.

"Your mom sucks, she should get raped." Freedom of speech. Acceptable?

ironic. free speech is cenored on ggd. They're called boundaries, they're how a functional society was created.

She's just so intelligent and so inspiring. I could seriously listen to her talking all day :flutter: Thanks Gaga for everything you do and for yours and Cynthia's work on the Born This Way Foundation. :kisses:

This was truly inpirational and resonated with me. The fact that she sits back and questions how the technologies that have made her successful, and continue to do so, can be hurting people. When she spoke about the research regarding Internet use and stress it shows that she really cares about her fans and doesn't want people to be obsessed with her anymore. 

I think at one point she wanted people to worship her. That's why I used to hate her. The Alejandro prayer candles, the cult mentality. 

To be honest, that is what originally caught my attention and I have been following her ever since because it fascinated me how she captivates the world. Over the past year that has all changed. 

Between her relationship and album with Tony, the incredible Oscars performance, TIHTY, and now this speech. I can't but have a hardcore respect for this lady. I really hope she can continue this trend into the next era.

You first falsely accused me and put words in my mouth.. then you tried to make fun of me for not being a true monster.. and then you called me ignorant! If you dont want to or cant make an argument, thats fine but stop replying to my comments because im not interested in your invalid reactions.
