Who knew that Sweden and Poland would be leading the fight for free speech?

Whoa! We’re in competition now? If so, I have just declared myself to be the winner.

Here’s your participation trophy.

:trophy:

I will be sure not to vote for any Democrat from the 1800’s

Modern day Swedish Democrats…

Nah- it should be identified for what it is.

When it’s repressed, it just goes underground and bursts back in spectacular and unpredictable ways.

Public accommodation has been conditioned.

They are free to publish their own stuff on their own platforms.

Competition? No- I was simply telling you whose researching capabilities I turst.

Hint- you stopped at Wikipedia and went no further. Wikipedia is a starting point for research. It’s not a good ending point.

My friendly tip for the day. :sunglasses:

Byrd didn’t hold office in the 1800s. Jbiden is a racist and you voted for him for President.

Not a nice try.

Nope. There is no public accommodation in when it comes to publishing speech.

Never has been.

This whole idea that “someone else has to publish my ideas for free” nonsense is really really new.

Imagine making this argument 15 years ago.

If they’re talking any federal subsidies or federal contracts.

Never voted for Byrd.

I don’t know who Jbiden is.

Is this the time someone mentions Pruneyard again?

Exactly!!! Now you’re starting to catch on. In today’s world, cancelling free speech is called “freedom.” And promoting free speech it is called “fascism.”

You nailed it. Upside down.

Viktor Orban complaining about suppression of “free speech”

Yeah… it’s that stupid.

Funny…can’t excape neo-Nazi tag.

That’s precisely what left-wing fascist are doing…tagging their opponents as Nazi to push their on fascist agenda.

Yet repression is what is being defended here. I agree with you. I wouldn’t repress critical theory or anthropogenic global warming either, despite the intent behind both.

In a liberal society, “bad” ideas are addressed out in the open. Deplatforming, unpersoning, canceling of culture is anathema to liberalism. It quickly becomes fascism itself.

Win the debate.

Why?

It’s not upside down, it’s Marcuse.

When you label your opponents as Fascists, racists, sexists, and homophobes, it renders your opponent as unworthy of debate. Only worthy of cancellation.

It’s all they have…while carrying out their own fascist policies.

As they currently are, they don’t cover political speech. A public option can meet this need.
