New York City Mayor Eric Adams has used this month’s Buffalo shooting to call for more social media censorship.
Speaking live on PIX11’s Morning Show, Adams was asked by the host Hazel Sanchez what could be done about regulating social media.
“Governor Hochul, she was on PIX11, demanding social media platforms be held accountable. Now, you’ve been calling for that since the suspected Brooklyn subway shooter, Frank James, allegedly posted racist rants online,” Sanchez said. “But social media’s been around and unregulated for a long time. So what kind of change can you see happening?”
Mayor Adams responded, saying that it was time for social media platforms to start using “artificial intelligence to identify words, identify phrases, to immediately remove and censor some of this information.”
Mayor Adams likened the censorship techniques to the removal of President Trump’s Twitter account; “We did it to Donald Trump on Twitter. He was dangerous to the country. So why aren’t we doing it to the everyday people who are using it and is dangerous to our neighborhoods and communities?”
Likening his censorship demands to his similar demands for social media platforms to censor some forms of rap on social media, Adams stated, “The type of violence that’s being promoted on social media is beyond anything I’ve ever witnessed before.
“Particularly in some of the drill music that actually taunts and threaten people. There’s a direct correlation. That’s the type of social media monitoring we believe the social media companies should do.”

If you dont want to watch something or read something, then just turn off the device or close the website. I mean how weak minded are people if you allow the internet to change you or bother you? If you're that weak minded, then maybe you have bigger problems than just the internet.
Eric, What me Worry, Adams is dangerous to New York City. I threw up in my mouth a little listening to his nonsense. More like big brother every day. George Orwell must be rolling over in his grave.
makes me wanna say.... Shudduppa you face.
Sad that Democrats are the ones who are taking away all kinds of rights, with those ridiculous mandates.
This is what America gets for voting emotionally and not logically.
Can't believe eric isn't all over the formula shortage. What's he going to put in his breakfast cereal?
It would be nice if the media could tell the difference between Fact and fiction!

New York chose to vote for a Woke incompetent candidate. What did they expect ?

I challenge anyone who voted for Hiden to put an “I VOTED FOR HIDEN” sticker on your bumper.

The real question is, with a 100% failure rate, why does anyone listen to him anymore?
The inmates of the NYC insane asylum now run it.
This attack on the 1A should make you very nervous I've been on my last nerve since Hiden and Crackles were elected.

Lately, mayor Swagger has been trying to get CEOs like JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon to ride the subway to work. Sorry but those type of people have brains and armed security. Why not have some of Adams friends from the Met gala and Hollywood ride it instead ?

What's wrong JQ? Are you worried there won't be enough of your fellow right wing nuts to shoot up churches and shopping malls?

I'm a Democrat, yet I've accepted that there is no choice other than to vote Republican from now on. That doesn't mean I like all that they stand for, but the current Democrats and their agenda must be stopped if we're to survive as a city and as a nation.
When you vote for an DemOrat candidate remember, it is your elderly parent who will be the target of their soft on crime policy. It is your home owner's insurance that will be costing more as well as your car insurance. We have witnessed people being murdered on the subway four so far this year. With weaker laws and soft on crime judges how long before it is someone you know or a family member who is a crime victim. Electurds does not care they have 24/7 security you don't. Crime gets bad enough and the only thing will be the last one out, who will turn off the lights in NYC.
There has been a 32% increase in NYers moving to Florida from 2019. Now you know why...
Eric Adams for president ?
Until Swagger Adams has the guts to tell it like it is and not tow the PC line, he'll never be effective. It'll just be all talk, no action. And I think that's exactly the way he wants it.
His open display of arrogance and conceit is all what the Sheeple will get !

A wokie wouldn't be calling to censor rap music.

The headline should read. “Queens Crap Normalizes Censorship “!

A right wing nut would want everyone walking around with flack jackets and carrying machine guns.

It's scary to think what these horrible Electurds have in mind to do to us in order to protect us from the crises they are creating.
The bottom line is that our society is out of control because the accountable parties no longer fear the consequences.

I will vote Republican (I’m a libertarian). This war is a no go for me.
