That title 😂 Genius.

Ohh damn, I'm only just now figuring out that at least one reason the reich wing is so hot to get people deplatformed and/or fired over public speech is because *that's what's been happening to them*. Ditto the labeling of even the mildest criticisms as hate speech.

They choose to believe that the things they've said about various marginalized people are on exactly the same level and should therefore meet with the same punishment. They are jumping at the chance to get their own back and avenge those among them who have had to face consequences for their actions.

Honestly IF you’re heinous and stupid enough to spew shit about people and wish them dead, say racist remarks, then I don’t blame companies for firing an employee. You deserve to be cancelled. My identity is only revealed on LinkedIn and I only forward positive messages that speak to being kind or in support of women’s and Black and Indigenous rights. I stay away from all politics. I do or get into arguments.

On BlueSky, I use an alias but I don’t wish death or horrible things outside of what is punishable by law. I’m just not that person.

I would like to hope that addressing the RWNJ’s “hate speech” will stop their extremism and vitriol. Hey, I’m a dreamer I guess.

I’ve had an internal feeling for years that anyone who uses ‘disrupt’ as a positive was just signaling they’re an asshole, glad to see that hunch was right!

"There is no place," says total phoney Bondi, "[for hate speech] in our society."

Unless it's about coloured people, Hispanics, women, or LBTGQ+ people. And, of course, Democrats.

Carr and all these others in the Admin talk like mobsters, "It would be a shame if something happened to you..."

I'm pretty sure I saw "Free Speech" emptying its joint bank account, and heading to Harley Motorcycles to buy a get away bike.

We are in the midst of a 5-alarm fire. It is time we started acting like it, instead of sitting around wringing our hands and analyzing how awful TFF and his gang are.

If only.

The Democrat dinosaurs need to get it through their heads that we are not going back to the way things were - ever. They either need to move out of the way for younger people or else figure out that they need to point in the direction forward to build something new. Nothing that was is ever coming back.

Hah! I’ll see your constitutional crisis and raise you a dictatorship and seven oligarchs.

Michael Eisner, former Disney CEO, on Xitter: "Where has all the leadership gone? If not for university presidents, law firm managing partners, and corporate chief executives standing up against bullies, who then will step up for the First Amendment?" [HuffPost]

Doesn’t he still own a bunch of Disney shares from his CEO compensation? He has some influence as a major shareholder of his former company.

So all that hate speech excreted from the Anus Face that includes graphic threats of violence is not protected speech. Good to know.

At hearing Trump's words of the helicopter not going down with him on it... Makes me wonder about his underlings who died in a helicopter crash many moons ago

Death seems to follow him ...

The right were always full of shit up past their eyebrows about freeze peach. People say fuck you to me and otherwise don’t wanna talk to me or read my crap because I say shitty things about minorities? That should be illegal. How dare they cancel me! I have a divine right to a cable show! And an Emmy! But the FCC ordering comedians making fun of the fascist junta be fired? Oh that’s fine.
