Europe has draconian restrictions on
0:03
what you can say and post online. Their
0:05
rules apply to Americans. How about
0:08
that? They are determined to impose
0:10
their speech standards on us. The
0:13
Digital Services Act passed by the
0:15
European Union is an outrageous attempt
0:17
to stick their leftist definition of
0:19
hate on the rest of the world. You are
0:21
not allowed to say anything that might
0:23
offend victim groups. Earlier this year,
0:26
an Irish comedian was arrested as he
0:28
flew into London. He posted what
0:30
authorities considered inappropriate
0:33
statements on trans people. In a country
0:35
that bans most handguns, the comedian
0:38
was detained by five armed police
0:40
officers. Thousands of people, and I
0:43
repeat that, thousands of people have
0:45
been arrested in Britain for what they
0:47
posted online. Europe's Digital Services
0:51
Act calls on all platforms with more
0:53
than 45 million users to remove illegal
0:56
expression. Come on, that's vague. What
0:58
is illegal? Who defines it? Before you
1:01
post, you have to consider the impact on
1:04
gender-based violence or someone's
1:06
physical and mental well-being. You
1:08
know, that's going to be used against
1:09
conservatives. Break the rules and the
1:12
platform could be fined between 1 and 6%
1:14
of their global revenue. Yeah, that's
1:16
right. Billions of dollars. and
1:19
whomsoever makes these illegal posts,
1:21
including Americans, can be arrested.
1:24
That's one of the reasons President
1:25
Trump would not grant the Brits more
1:27
trade concessions. He was concerned that
1:30
the American executives who run these
1:32
platforms would be arrested if they try
1:34
to get into Britain, just like the Irish
1:36
Communion arrested for posting about
1:37
trans people. We can't have that. We
1:40
cannot submit to the imposition of
1:42
European politics on social media and by
1:44
extension on us. It is a power grab. It
1:48
is a money grab and is wrong.
