Standard partisan ideologue strategy: Try to use one example to negate a macro point.
Um, no, i was talking about the SUBJECT OF THIS THREAD.
Which is...
Reeducation Camp if you say "OMG" or "Horrible" about men kissing on TV
Now, if you want to talk about Sterling or some other example, start a thread on that. I mean, I guess if you think that Sterling is being "oppressed" because he offended the people who are making money for his team, and they want him to go, that's fine. Poor guy is only going to walk away with a couple billion for a return on a couple million investment.

Joe, just be honest for once. Gloat. Have fun with it. Rub it in my face. You have large corporations knee-jerking whenever they're afraid they might receive bad publicity. You people have an entire country afraid to say what it's actually thinking for fear of punishment. Even more impressive, a country that was founded on freedom of expression.
Go ahead and gloat. But at least be honest. Just once. Your head won't explode, I swear.

guy, I had a co-worker who lost her job because she posted a resume on Craig's List that said, "The company was bought out and I don't feel comfortable here."
People get fired for posting "My Boss Sucks" on Facebook.
People have been afraid to say what they really think for fear of punishment since they learned to speak, because that has them interact with "Other People".
If there's a problem here, it's that the internet gives people a false sense of security, and they can say stuff on Twitter or Facebook they'd never say to someone's face.
