Is Free Speech Under Attack in this Country?

But here is the total "poor me" bullsh*t that gets ladled out by the supposedly oppressed. I don't decry people who voted for Trump. They liked Trump. I don't begrudge people who don't want to wear masks, although they should, but I can still listen to and appreciate their complaints. I think the people complaining about the election are wrong, but they can complain all they want.

The difference is, I can abide any and all as long as they stay on the rails. But what we have now is a bunch of people all over social media just spewing out crap (on both the left and right) for no apparent reason other than to wind people up. And you're right to an extent, the provocateurs on the Left are as bad as those on the Right. I'm no wimp. I've gone bare knuckles in the political and policy realms for a long time. But if you are going that route, you better be extremely witty (like P.J. O'Rourke) or willing to face the music. I value free speech, but not all free speech is of equal value. I think that what gets lost these days.

As for Seth Dillon, if there's a more snide pr*ck on the planet than him, that guy would take his place as the biggest a**hole around. Smamy, self-important jacka**.

if you use the acronym HEV it will save you a lot of typing...that would be hyper-exaggerated victimhood
 
depends on the facts...your being upset about it strongly suggests it was indeed a case of HEV ©

it can be transmitted via casual contact so you should quarantine

It would be fun if you self reflected for a second.

A person just got fired bc she made a comparison to nazi Germany

Her co worker has done the same thing multiple times... but he is safe.

She has an opinion that you yourself described as a nuanced opinion... and yet, she would have saved her job by not sharing it.

That is the definition of needing to self censor. Firing her, is yet another warning shot to all people to keep their mouths shut

No it was because they posted a video harassing a Facebook executive outside his house. They doxxed him.

That makes sense. I can agree with not accepting doxxing.

I wish they had the same policy for people like Nick Sandman and hundreds others. But they will definitely protect their own

Oh Nick Sandmann had CNN chase him to his house?

No they turned a 16 year old.higj school student into a Klansman and gave his name and school detail to the masses to call the kid a racist.

The sheep here ate it up of course.

They have sense had to settle those lawsuits

So what you're saying is it's not the same at all.
