Hey, I thought the left were about "freedom of speech."

Hey, I thought the left were about "freedom of speech."

Yeah they're all about freedom of speech, you're free to say anything you want as long as the left wing, censorship, PC shock troops approve it first.

"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear." -- George Orwell

 

[Rexx Taylor]

The left and free speech should never be used together in a sentence.

Roseanne has every right to form an opinion,,especially when millions agree with her

This morning it was being reported that the writers on her show were told to turn hard left in season 2. Season 2 was to be about Roseanne learning how wrong she was to support Trump, shocker.

if Rosie had just toned down the insult a bit, maybe claim that Valerie eats daily at KFC and buys watermelon by the dozen at Wal-Mart,,,none of this media panty outrage would of happened

 

[Some Guy]

Wasn't that their whole theme last week and their screams about the poor millionaire blacks in the NFL being "forced to stand" during the Anthem?

Yes, as a matter of fact. The NFL (Trump of course) being crushed for fining players for their FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHT.

Of course we are saying that freedom of speech does not protect you on work time. They called us racist for that.

Well, Rosanne made a comment, not on work time and they are standing in solidarity and supporting ABC/ESPN for firing her immediately.

They are such losers.

Authoritarians on all sides only believe in rights that they like or benefit them. If those rights don't or won't, then they'll take those rights out back like they were Old Yeller.

The left doesn't like guns so they're quite eager to get rid of the right to bear arms. The religious right doesn't believe in gayness so they're quite happy to prevent gays from marrying.

And Trump doesn't believe in 1st Amendment protection for the press. He would love to be able to kill the 1st Amendment. (It's the Hitler in him!)

Hyberbole alert!

Trump actually does believe in a free press as evidenced by his lack of effort to attempt governmental action against the outlets he doesn't like. A "right" as identified by the government only affords you protection from being persecuted/punished by the government for what the right protects. So, the government can't come down the press he doesn't like. He's the president, and the president has more power than anyone to get away with attempting legal action or some form of governmental punishment if Trump truly didn't believe in the first amendment.

The first amendment however does not protect you from criticism for what you say or how you conduct yourself. Ergo, Donald Trump criticizing their speech and their actions. You don't have to agree with him, and you're free to lie as well, but you're not free to not have your false statements go uncorrected.

I agree, that Barr made her racist comments on her free time. It's freedom of speech.
But I also find it amusing, that the Right calls out the left, when it's a fact that hey also go after someone else exercising Constructional freedoms. (Freedom of the Press for example)
This is like when those Right accuse people on the Left are liars, yet their leader and hero is a proven pathological liar and they suck in his proven lies anyways.
Hypocrisy, is a common trademark all of hyper-partisanship.

Apparently you missed the episode of "Daffy Don's Neighbor" where the star of the show publicly threatened to take away press "credentials" from News Outlets he didn't like.

Roseanne has every right to form an opinion,,especially when millions agree with her

The funny thing too is for years comedians have been protected. Like the late night or SNL people..

Now, they still are. Just as long as they tell the same homogenized cookie cutter attacks on white Christians and white conservatives.

I honestly cannot tell what is less funny than Samantha Bee. Very few things annoy more than annoying unfunny comedians than white female left wing comedians that are not funny, who think they are funny.

and when u think of the stuff Bill Maher got away with when we almost had a President Palin.

Anyone who has been on campus can't say that the left is for freedom of speech.

Whoa... hold up... when did we "almost had a President Palin"?

Did we go on a national acid trip when I wasn't looking?

 

[BluesLegend]

Did you know they also pulled the old Roseanne series out of syndication costing the network and actors a huge boatload of money. These liberal idiots thought the new pro Trump Roseanne show would be unpopular, that the pro Trump episodes resonated with the American people and was hugely popular shell shocked the libs.

i was so looking forward to season two when Roseanne was going to be more like Archie Bunker making fun of blacks and latinos in all 20 episodes

 

[TheDude]

I didn't know who Valerie Jarrett was, so I looked her up. Rosanne has a point, she most definitely looks like a planet of ape character. But of course liberals see racism with every breath, because it's become part of their DNA.

While it's not a nice thing to say, her statement is only racist if you want it to be racist.

 

[Rexx Taylor]

does this mean Roseanne has been taken off the Nobel Peace Prize list?

Define "go after." If you're talking about criticism, then yea, everyone goes after everyone and should if there's some difference of opinion or some gripe there to be hashed out. I would moreso classify "go after" as attempting to leverage or establish some institutional power to stop someone from saying/doing something.

If anyone is advocating for using government power to shut down someone's free speech (however stupid it is) or compel someone's speech, i'm against it. And sorry to say if you fall on the left or consider yourself on the left, that the ones attempting to limit speech aren't on the right right now, not via the use of governmental force anyway. "Hate speech" laws are nothing but a way to use government force to shut down speech that someone else doesn't like and i haven't seen anyone on the right advocating for those. Bill C-16 in Canada compelling the use of certain speech definitely wasn't pushed by a right-leaning government.

1. Threatened but didn't.

2. No government punishment for anything, just restriction of access. Can i start a company called "Cool Media 'n Stuff" and automatically get press credentials at the White House? Probably not. So there's some criteria being applied to who does and doesn't get press credentials. Just because someone has press credentials today doesn't necessarily mean that they should maintain them tomorrow. It would depend on what the criteria is.

My only question is, if Trump is Hitler and Obama is Hitler, why don't they get along better?

They are all about free speech and defending it and protecting it at least for people on the left. Now maybe something has changed today but I have seen little media coverage over Samantha Bee calling Ivanka Trump a ******* **** on her show last night one thing I’m pretty dam sure of TBS won’t cancel her show because of it.

The nfl has a union and union contract that doesn’t include a protest provision.

Obviously Rosanne has a contract with one of those behavior clauses .

What’s your point anyway ? You admit cons are against free speech ?
