Don't blame me, I voted for the other guy. (Politics General)

@HJSDGCE  
Which is a foolish quote to begin with. Freedom of speech applies to all or it applies to absolutely buttfuck no one!

@Shirani  
Believe it or not but twitter and most people don’t like it when people spout hate speech openly

@Shirani  
It’s a pretty good quote though. Basically, if you start screaming in my face, I will bash your face with a metal pipe.
 
It’s not that hard.

>mfw The Socialist Server bans Mutualists and Market “Socialists”  

 
’Tis a good day

@Commune  
and their banning of said people will have detrimental consequences since you have given them more reason to hate. “Free speech for me but not for thee.” is a dangerous fucking game you are playing with.

@HJSDGCE  
Then you are no better than those you hate because I abhor violence against anyone unless violence is forced upon me. I will NOT stoop to violence first! That also means I will not ban people unless they actively harass and threaten people with credible harassment and threats.

@Commune  
“yay for silencing people I despise!”~ Commune

@Shirani  
@Shirani  
@Shirani  
I recommend that you condense this into one post.

@Shirani  
That was just an example, under the pretense that human beings are animals (which we are and why I don’t trust people). I myself would never use violence to solve my problems because based on experience, it just makes it worse.
 
What I’m saying is that we shouldn’t be surprised when people act irrational. Human beings are emotional creatures and most often that not, act based on those emotions regardless of consequence. It’s instinctual to us and very natural, which is why it’s often our first choice of action. It’s very idiotic for sure, especially from a third-party or an uninvolved bystander.
 
For the sake of sounding cool, I’ll be using religious stuff. Ahem.
 
Adam and Eve were cast out of the Gardens of Eden for eating the forbidden apple. The very same apple which gave them the ability to think and rationalize. Was is really a sin to be able to think rationally, or was is better to stay mindless like animals? This argument as of now is based on this, where we can either act rationally or act emotionally.

@Shirani  
Well, when you live in a society that abhors free speech, and censorship is the only way your ideology flourishes.
 
How’d that work out for Germany in the 40’s by the way?

@Cyborg_pony  
it backfires in the worst possible way. People, it seems, do not learn from history.

Also, for the sake of the “freedom of speech” argument and acting as Fluttershy’s temporary knockoff replacement, I give you this and this which showcases two opposing arguments. For the record, these are from Reddit and thus, is journalism-free.
 
Not the best source, but I am Asian and we have knockoffs all the time.

@HJSDGCE  
Fuck Adam and Eve  
I could be relaxing in paradise but brain dead power couple decided to eat fruit
 
@Shirani  
I tend to not be friendly to people who want me dead

@Cyborg_pony  
Okay, this is ironic coming from you considering socialists/communists were among the first to have their free speech suppressed.
 
@Shirani  
But to be fair I found Commune’s post to be pretty idiotic.

@HJSDGCE  
Reddit, the place with the most ban-happy mods talk about freedom of speech. :b
 
Also, once the people that use the “Consequence” find themselves on that side. It doesn’t take long for them to change their tune right quick.
 
So it’s really how Shirani put so bluntly:  
“yay for silencing people I despise!”
 
It’s their true feelings, but the second they’re getting silenced; “But what about freedom of speech!?”
 
Authoritarians that want everything to do the job for them, so their hands are clean, are always surprised when they find them facing a ditch when they’re no longer useful.
 
@Hypnosryan  
Just like in all the countries they controlled.  
The old saying of history and repeating itself.

@Hypnosryan  
I am for all sides expressing their opinion. What I am NOT fine about is this double standard against the right wing. It leads to bad things happening.

@Commune  
If they want ME dead then I just don’t care about them. That is their problem not mine. I don’t let them hold that power over me.  
What silencing people does is give them perceived forbidden knowledge that make people flock to them. It IS the forbidden fruit effect after all. Why give them that massive power over what they say in front of people without others countering them? Mark my words it WILL cause their numbers to grow.

@Shirani  
I rather platforms not allow people to spew racist propaganda  
Just saying  
They have the right to do that and they should because it creates a toxic community
 
Besides who the fuck doesn’t use the deep web if they already shady as fuck ?  
And I doubt the public would be sympathetic to them  
“I got banned !”  
“For what ?”  
“For saying that blacks should be kicked out”  
“Ok I can see why”

@Shirani  
This has less to do with the right though and more so in-fighting between leftist/socialist tendencies.

@Hypnosryan  
As far as possible, revolutionaries must distance themselves from leftist organisations, and show that far from threatening the old world order, the action of these groups can at best only lead to its reconditioning. Starting to criticise them prepares the ground for the revolutionary movement, which will be obliged to liquidate them, or else risk being liquidated itself.

@Commune  
“REVOLUTION! REVOLUTION!”  
“We got our revolution, what do we do now?”  
“SUPRESS THE THOUGHTS OF THE PEOPLE! BREAK THEIR SPIRIT SO THEY WILL NOT RISE AGAISNT US!”  
“Isn’t that kind of like oppression? Wasn’t that what we were going to change?”  
“GOODBYE.”  
“Wha~~” BANG!  
“HE WAS BECOMIONG A RADICAL. HE WAS A THREAT TO MY~~ OUR GREAT IDEALS.”
 
Socialism; it’s a good thing for those in control. :D

Before we get out of control and act like a mob of AntiFa crazed anachis- I mean, “peaceful protesters”, please be reminded that rule 0 still applies here. So don’t go calling people names and insulting them.
 
Back on topic;  
@Cyborg_pony  
I understand your concern about this. All I’m saying is that we shouldn’t be surprised because… well, it’s obvious as it is. In a battle of words, they carry no harm so long as said words used does not cause any negative physical, social or psychological effects. These include armed revolutions, riots, censorship of speech, influence and ability, vigilante justice, homocide and suicide, psychotic tendecies, etc. etc..
 
The list is long and I do not have the motivation nor the knowledge to write it all down. I am not a political wizard.

@Cyborg_pony  
Well the ‘revolution will not be vilified’ after all

@Cyborg_pony  
But it’s corporations who’ve murdered union leaders, and are paying there workers so little to the point where they can barely survive on their own, just so the guys on top can keep all the money to themselves.
 
Capitalism ^TM :Good for those in control
