To be fair liberals have pretty much given up on free speech when they went all in banning hate speech and setting up safe spaces. I'm pretty sure I've seen a couple of cases where the ACLU is on the wrong side of the free speech divide.

I have not. I am aware of the Twilight Zone episode that is vaguely referred to in the post. I've seen excerpts, but not the entire episode.

Authoritarians demand you listen to them

Correct. One has a right to protest and seek redress of grievances, one does not have a right to be heard. I have the right to ignore you.

Your rights end where my fist begins.

Hi Guythh!

I affirm that the election of DJT was an almost psychedelic ejaculation of resentment by the less-intellectual sectors of society at the ever-greater refinement of culture and economics toward the benefit of the bright. As a gesture, it had much to recommend it.

In practice —Conan's broad perspective historical notwithstanding— it's working out as well as you'd expect, and in the years when America mutual competence ought once again have shown the path.

Even with historical perspective, even with this most enviable passage in the totality of the cosmos, could America have fallen any farther in this moment?

Always, ALWAYS wear a mask.

ACLU isn't for freedom of thought, either. That professor? WTAF, you're skating on mighty thin ice. I understand that water is cold.

Let's see, we've got two geriatric candidates running for office with each campaign spending all of its money and air time trying to prove that the other candidate is less qualified to be president than their own instead of touting their own candidates accomplishments and qualifications (if any).

On one side we've got a thrice-married serial adulterer with multiple business bankruptcies and an inflated sense of his own worth - financial, personal, and intellectual; a man whose standards of personal conduct were (and still are) shaped by the unspoken rule of the eighth-grade playground.

On the other side, we've got a career politician who son and brother are the poster children for corruption and influence peddling; a man who, after 47 years in office, has not one single piece of consequential legislation to his credit and whose time as vice president was marked by the president wondering aloud what stupid thing he would say next.

Our politics have become more and more trivial over the years, but this might be the stupidest election we've ever had. With safe spaces, trigger warnings, 58 genders, and cancel culture, we're probably getting what we deserve. We seem to be no longer capable of adult-level self-governance.

"I affirm that the election of DJT was an almost psychedelic ejaculation of resentment by the less-intellectual sectors of society at the ever-greater refinement of culture and economics toward the benefit of the bright. As a gesture, it had much to recommend it."

Many should be laughing loudly at how stupid this is.

His opponent had claimed on more than one occasion that she would confiscate the lawfully earned proceeds of American businesses to further her own plans. Oh, how dumb those "less-intellectual" people were/are for not embracing THAT worthy cause!

Is it "the bright" who have no jobs, who are burning cities, who are insisting they have unearned credit through victimhood?

It isn't the "deplorables".

They are at work.

The ACLU has finally morphed into a witch hunter's guild:

It's all you got. Your understanding of the world collapse in sports team loyalty.

If only.

Hard to believe you said that.

As a bar room lawyer might advise: don't say nothing. But if you have to talk to the media, record the interview yourself.

Put simply, the paper, which allegedly prides itself on journalistic accuracy, mischaracterized and misconstrued everything I said to them and even though they only used 94 words from me, they couldn’t even correctly quote what I said and publish it in their article.

What’s more, when they were caught publishing factually incorrect information, they made a quiet alteration and refused to even notify the person they wrote about, me, that they’d corrected the error.

If this happened in a relatively inconsequential article about me, how often does it happen in more consequential articles about people much more significant than me?

I'm sure stuff like this isn't related to the normals getting uppity at all.

Last month, a Department of Education-funded organization hosted a conference on "abolishing the United States."

I've obtained shocking leaked documents from the keynote session, which encourages teachers to "create disruption," "abolish" capitalism, and "tear down" America.

When I was in college one of the guys on my dorm floor read about how his house burned down in the local paper. It was an AP piece with no local student reporters to muff things up. So after frantically calling home to see if everyone was ok he found out his house didn't burn down. The reporter did get the state and the city right. But that was it. They didn't even get the zip code right, much less the address.

In another fun one my dad read in the WSJ about some amazing research that was being done at his company. Really cutting edge unbelievable stuff. So he went into work to ask his boss who was doing that stuff and ask to be put on the team. His boss told him the article was about his own work . . .

'Mostly peaceful' and 'other than the knife' reporting are only the most obvious issues. Lots of people have seen just how poor of a job reporters do even on minor and non-political things.
