The mass firings for hate speech

[Moonglow]

Accountability is beginning to happen.
Deal with it.

Then why is Trump not in prison for his crimes?

 

[Lisa558]

The thing is we have to fight fire with fire.

Not to the point of wanting them dead, but drawing a line on what is acceptable in a civil society.

They can disagree with us all they want, they can't want us dead.

They also forget that most of the right keeps quiet on social media over fears of exactly what is now happening to the idiot left.

My mother is in an assisted living facility in a very liberal county, where the residents all bash on Trump. They have fallen for the leftist lies about him hook, line, and sinker.

I have told my mother NOT to say she voted for Trump, or try to point out any good things about him. Leftists are a hateful bunch, and I don’t want Mom on the receiving end of their irrational wrath.

She’s an old lady and I don’t want her demonized by fellow residents.

 

[Moonglow]

Its hate speech and private business does not have to obey the first amendment. What this does show is the message is getting through and democrats own Kirks murder

The guy was never a Democrat.

The very fact that they not only want us dead, but are actively taking steps to ensure that means the line has already been crossed.

I avoid political discussions in general on places like Facebook. Just not worth it.

Presidents are above the law

Yes it has been crossed, but we should follow Kirk's example and confront them without becoming them.

Call them out, expose things like death threats or callous praising of Kirk's death, but don't cross the lines they have crossed.

Must be nice to break the rules.

Absolutely. At least until it becomes impossible to do that.

 

[The Duke]

Presidents are above the law

They kinda are.

 

[1srelluc]

They choose to not understand this.

But, but, but, they are "educated".

 

[Billiejeens]

The first amendment might apply to the government, but the principle applies everywhere.

Explain

 

[debbiedowner]

I thought conservatives believed in freedom of speech and opposed suppressing speech. What happened?

Only when it fits their needs.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Explain

The first amendment is a restriction on government. The principle that freedom of speech can only be enjoyed by those with the internal controls to use that speech wisely is proved by so many people getting fired or otherwise punished.

 

[Moonglow]

You have been stupid all along. Employers have a right to fire employees for cause.

I am sure they do. I would never work for anyone like them.

 

[Hollie]

Then why is Trump not in prison for his crimes?

What prison sentence was imposed?

Why wasn't your hero NC stabbed in prison?

Then why were our government leaders calling for the forceful goodwill of his murder?

 

[Moonglow]

What prison sentence was imposed?

Why wasn't your hero NC stabbed in prison?

I said he should be in prison; I never said he was sentenced to prison.

 

[Hellokitty]

It is wrong to celebrate Kirk’s death but not to criticize what he said while he was alive

The people being fired are not merrily criticizing what Kirk said but celebrating his being assassinated. I am 100% okay with canceling a culture celebrating assassinations of innocent people.

Especially since the left wants so many more assassinated. They haven't given up on assassinating the president either.
