Kantiberl

Oh so everyone who wants free speech just wants to shout slurs? You were saying something about black and white thinking…

Way to incite anger and hatred for no reason. If someone wants to do that then they suck and you should tell them. You might gain a better understanding of yourself and the world if you challenge peoples beliefs instead of creating imaginary strawmen to get angry at.

Cilantro tastes like soap because of genetics, it tastes like soap to me too. You are creating a straw man to argue against. Do you really think all people who don’t agree with you are against basic human rights? You’re right that those people deserve to be shut down and stood up against. But to lump EVERYONE under the banner of either good or bad so that you can lazily dismiss all dissenting opinions in the hopes that that’ll change anything for the better, then you are doing nothing but helping to devolve society in to a cancerous cesspool of backstabbing and virtue signaling. Nobody wins without nuance.

And how do you expect to change anyone’s mind if you don’t talk to each other? How are you supposed to empathize, be empathized with, challenge views, and have your views challenged? Nothing changes and society is weakened by burying your head in the sand.

You may want to look up the psychological concept of projection.

Your viewpoint is beyond disturbing. The idea of exterminating any group of people based on some arbitrary criteria is horrible. You’re talking about human lives, real people with stories, families, and potential. Advocating for their ‘termination’ like they’re just a problem to be erased? It’s chilling. This is not just about right or wrong viewpoints; it’s about basic human decency. Such a twisted mindset has caused untold misery in the past. Your belief genuinely terrifies me.

Also, ALL convicted criminals? From shoplifting to murder? Where do you draw the line, o’ holy judge, jury, and executioner? Hopefully you’ve never trolled someone before or we’ll have to send you to the gas chambers. Redemption is not allowed in this utopia.

There’s 8 billion of us now, we can afford to lose the trash.

Sounds like you and nazis have more in common than you think.

Certainly

Of course, but it’s important to keep in mind that so-called “free speech absolutists” don’t actually want free speech. They want freedom of consequences for their very specific, narrow, non-free speech. They would love to censor the living shit out of everybody else.

They

The biggest problem with this “us vs. them” mentality everyone seems so eager to jump towards, is that since both sides must always be opposed, you’re now on the side that is against free speech. That’s going to do nothing but strengthen their side and weaken yours. Open your heart to other humans, especially the ones you don’t like. Try to understand them and realize you can hold your beliefs without silencing theirs. How will anyone change if nobody talks to each other? Words are what make us human, they have the power to change everything. It’s how we’ve survived as long as we have. One “hello” from a fellow human can save a suicidal persons life. The only way you can change the world is if you speak your heart and listen to others.

I know there is a lot of hate and nonsense out there but you’re grouping it all together under one image and painting everyone who doesn’t think like you as the enemy. It’s not helpful. Yes, they do it too, but that’s not an excuse. Be better.

Exactly, and that’s why this topic is important to me. I don’t wanna be silenced for wrongthink.

It’s starting to worry me that “free speech” has become something to be feared and avoided. Avoiding confrontation to your beliefs just makes you and your beliefs weaker.

What if you used the sun as the source of the laser?

That may be the most tautological sentence I’ve ever read.

Then the doctors would have advised her on what to do. I doubt “take black market pills to force a stillbirth and then hide the body” were the doctors orders.

It was always a crime to secretly force a stillbirth at 28 weeks and then bury the body without telling anyone. 28 weeks is almost 7 months (edit: math is hard). She had plenty of time to do it legally.

The author argues that Zuckerberg’s photo looks like that of a middle-aged man cheating on his wife

I would argue the author is a petty asshole.

Every single action you take ripples outwards to the people around you and on in to future generations. You matter just as much as every living thing on earth and in the universe. If you accept the suffering that is inherent in existence and aim towards being the most innate and true version of yourself, you will get the most meaning and consciousness out of life. We are an interconnected, trippy, murderous, loving, intelligent, massive group of apes all experiencing each other’s psyche together. The world wants and needs you to love yourself.

She had plenty of time to have an abortion but waited until the third trimester to conspire with her mother to secretly force a stillbirth and bury the body without telling anyone. Yeah, that’s fucked. I’m pro-choice and hate police spying but what they did was illegal and disturbing and they should be charged.

Pretty insidious of you to imply that what I have expressed here is far right, nazism, AND fascism. Do you have any examples where I haven’t been moderate? This is what I meant by downvote brigades, it’s not just the downvotes. It’s the snakelike way in which people (such as you) are arguing with me that I’m disturbed by.

It’s not splitting hairs about semantics when I’ve been called a nazi (multiple times now) for espousing NOTHING in the realm of nazism, and have in fact only condemned it. That’s a huge problem, and it’s my current focus here.

I’m against authoritarianism from any side and I’m also against the deceptive bullshit you’re trying to pull.

How? Why would you resort to lying? I’m pro choice, I despise Trump, I’m pro gay and trans rights, I believe in UBI for everyone (as well as keeping the free market in place), pro legalization (of every drug), pretty anti gun but I still believe it’s peoples right to own them, I think police should be completely reformed and prisons fundamentally changed to be places of rehabilitation. What opinion of mine shows I’m on the right end of the spectrum? Because I believe in nuance and civil discourse? That I think all humans deserve forgiveness and a chance to grow and become better? Please, do enlighten me.
