Now I get it

[cnelsen]

If I call your speech "fascist", you have to shut up.

 

[Moonglow]

That explains a lot..

 

[JakeStarkey]

OK.

 

[cnelsen]

OK.

StankJerky doesn't see the issue. Just wonders why it doesn't work so well for him.

ME: I think it is unwise for the US to try to be the world's policeman.

STANK: Nazi! Aren't you late to your Hitler Youth meeting? Fascist! Make sure your brown shirts are clean.

ME: Um, don't you think--

STANK: Ahh! I said fascist! You have to shut up!

ME: Don't be absur---

STANK (claps hands over ears): LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

 

[Auld Phart]

Wonder if the person holding the sign knows what irony is?

 

[JakeStarkey]

This point of the OP is this: cnelson the fascist does not like being told he is a fascist.

 

[cnelsen]

Wonder if the person holding the sign knows what irony is?

Right? We beat them up because we are against thuggery.

Believe me, Stank, I'm indifferent. I don't have that terror-of-name-calling gene, which, undoubtedly, explains your churlishness as name-calling is all you've got.

The idjits have been throwing that buzzword around since before the election.

it's like racist, bigot, or the host of other labels the left loves to throw to stop dialogue. they don't like what they're hearing and it HAS to fit under some unmentionable category.

It's the semi-adult version of sticking their fingers in the their ears, except this one gives them the right, in their minds, to resort to violence if it suits them....cause, you know, Hitler....

I went to the web address visible on that cry baby's sign and found this (oh how I wish I still lived in New York City just for this one day):

I looked up this domain and, no surprise, these righteous patriots hide behind a proxy.

Speaking of righteousness, any Methodists on this board? Are you cool with your church hosting Antifa? The Methodist website says: "The people of The United Methodist Church are putting our faith in action by making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world, which is our church’s mission. Through the power of our connection, we are making a positive difference in more than 125 countries." How does that square with violence and suppression of free speech?

Yeah, that's why you brought it up.

From refusefascism's website:

We must manifest the power of NO! everywhere: on signs, billboards, walls, social media and the news. NO! In the Name of Hannity, We REFUSE To Accept a Fascist America must resound.

yep, and I'm sure the program is more like this.

1. YES, It IS happening, right now!
2. Why isn't your hair on absolute fire!
3. It is your duty as a patriot to violently prevent speech which may cause violence, such speech based solely on our assessment!
