She would say that. Everyone knows Jane's having an affair with the boss chimp.

Ben Shapiro goes one step further and says he doesn't believe the law should get involved in things like the cake shop saga.

He believes that market forces will take their course.

Basically assholes lose business, and go out of business...
(problem is there's too many bible thumping gay haters in America.)

Jordan Petersen also argues that the law can police what you say (hate speech) but can't police what you don't say.
Canada has actually passed that exact law concerning how you MUST pronoun the trans community.
First time in Western common law history.

PS, why the fuck am I getting serious in a humor thread Someone please derail us back.

Free speech is a sticky issue, Iggy. I am one of those poststructuralist commies (like Shapiro fears). Market forces will lead us nowhere (IMO) but to higher sales revenues for certain individuals.

My position is: "say what you'd like; the revolution continues." One day (some dreamy day) I'd like to think that we won't let infants starve in third world countries because "hey, capitalism is expedient!" Some day, I'd like to think that we all recognize that we are past that. But that is not today.

VL, we are and always will be a work in progress. I'm just glad I was born (by sheer potluck) in a western country and not some backward theocracy where on Tuesdays and Thursdays, the cranes are displaying woman who had affairs.

I am strongly opposed to illiberal ideologies. One person in this discussion has said that people are free to say whatever they want to say, but they are not free from the consequences of saying it. I've been hearing a lot of that 'consequences' talk lately. Some very illiberal people have decided that they have a right to impose consequences on people for saying things that they don't like. This is really getting out of hand. One of the most interesting and well documented examples of how out of control and hypocritical broken activism has become happened at Yale a couple of years ago. Here is a very good write up about it from The Atlantic.

What would all of the crane based necro upskirt fetishists do on tuesdays and thursdays, then, though?  Won't someone ever think of those poor folks?

Hate speech is any speech critical of hate speech.

Hate speech for Conservatives is criticizing their hate speech

That's why God created goats... They are the true victims without a voice.

If god had not meant man to make love to animals he wouldn't have put horns on the front of the goat to hold onto.

Right, Tasmanians?
