Is this really freedom when the protest a college allowing someone on the other side on campus to talk? In their eyes free speech only applies when they agree with it. I would have no problem with a protest saying you disagree with someone speaking but they take it a step too far by breaking the law, turning violent and saying the guy should not be able to speak at all. #doublestandard "A planned speech by author Ann Coulter was canceled in April" "The Berkeley College Republicans invited right-wing provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos to speak last February, but the event was abruptly canceled when masked left-wing anarchists rioted outside the event to shut it down." "Others were holed up inside a student building, waving signs protesting the university's decision to allow Shapiro on campus." www.foxnews.com/us/2017/09/15/ben-shapiro-speech-at-uc-berkeley-results-in-arrests-at-protests.html |

You can say whatever you want as long as you agree with them.

It is only free speech if it fits their narrative

^^^ along those lines: I think Mo brought it up on one of the school threads; that liberals are taking over the country... and I think he is 100% right. It's very apparent on social media but what scares me is the people who identify as conservatives, claim they are conservatives, tell people they are conservatives, then do liberal things. I think there are a lot of liberals out there that don't even know it.

Seems like their new tactic is to call you a racist bigot if you don't agree with them.

I think there are a lot of liberals out there that don't even know it. I don't believe it. Every generation feels they're living the end of society. Remember when all the hippies were free bangin each other in the mud in the 60s? Then everyone was doing drugs in the 70s, Everyone thought they'd get aids in the 80's, rock and roll in the 90s, terror in the 2000s, then gay marriage, and now chicks with dicks wanting universal shitting rights in a Target store. There's always gonna be weirdos out there. The news and now social media are heavily manipulated to make you think you're the only one left that believes in right and wrong, hard work, and self respect. All that trash is heavily financed, grossly manufactured, and promoted by relentless drumbeat, by a very small group of freaks. Let us not lose sight of the fact that Trump got 48% in MN, the absolute last place on earth you'd expect a near loss for a degenerate communist old bag like Hillary Clinton. That's my two cents anyway. |
