    I don’t think that addresses the question. At least not the question that led me to go “huh?” when I saw this.

    Which is that…yeah, the US is going to be murdering a dude on livestream. But what has that got to do with “content mods” who now “have to host” a video?

      Where you think this going be live stream from? Broadcast Tv? No this will be on Twitch, YouTube etc. Hence the words live streamed.

        I’m sorry, the US government is live streaming a guy’s execution ON TWITCH?? This feels like a Florida man headline

        Nothing I have seen has said anyone will be “forced” to host it. They’ll find some platform that is specifically willing to promote fascism.

          They’ll find some platform that is specifically willing to promote fascism.

          So almost every major social media platform and probably a handful of streaming platforms?

            Sure, maybe. Still doesn’t change the fact that nobody has yet presented (or even attempted to present) an explanation for the bizarre description in the post.

              It’s not that bizarre, you’re just splitting hairs over the precise wording of a meme you’ve decided to take way too seriously.

              With this adminstration the “or else” is implied.

              So they either accept that they have to host Hegseth’s murder porn, or else the orange man will find a way to make them suffer.

          Yes, because Google and Amazon are such staunch opponents of fascism that they’ll need to be forced.

        Pretty sure they could just stream a webcam to the white house website without a video sharing platform needing to be involved.

          Yeah but they aren’t going want to do that way. They either want the major network to do it streaming services. We don’t even know weather they are going want to charge for it yet.
