I'm quite aware of what the thread is about Master. Yes, my line of thinking is indeed VERY rational if you're to look at the recent history of England, Australia, Canada, and college campuses across America.
England has banned guns. Australia has made it very difficult to have a gun. Canada has big time gun control.
Apparently certain kinds of speech are now against the law in England. I know that Greg Elliot, a Canadian man, was accused of "Criminal Harassment via Twitter" by two women just because he disagreed with those women and he was facing 6 months in jail for that.
Liberty is not stolen away all at once, it's inch by inch. The ruling class took your guns or rather you gave them up, and now they are limiting your speech and you don't see anything wrong with it? Well to that I say, doubleplus good comrade!
....don't look at what they'll erode away, look at the core of what you are losing. Freedom of expression, if you're a racist asshole be one loud and proud, I'm not, but fucking hell racists should be allowed to speak so people know them for what they are. These laws, this idea of "safe spaces" it's just a nice fluffy bunny word for
TOTALITARIANISM. You can laugh that off, but your kids are growing up in this environment, imagine what will be banned by the time they have kids or their kids have kids!
I'm not a hypocrite every fucking last letter of the Constitution and Bill of Rights says what my government is
NOT allowed to do, for people to fucking laugh it off and think it's no big deal or think that a vague concept like "safety" is more important it's a mistake....but you won't understand it until it is too late.
If Gazza wants to tell racist jokes he can go right ahead, I don't agree with them but I'll fight for his right to tell them....at least here in America.
