Bud, you won't see me defending Nazis. Scum of the Earth mate, and I'm not afraid to say it to them. But that's the difference between you and I. You might try to use some sort of authority-figure to shut them up, or maybe even use force yourself and punch them to get them to conform to your ideals. Me, I won't…

Legally, in the U.S., no. They should be though, and I consider them to be.

Oh boy, the "social contract" argument again! Usually I just hear it in argument for paying taxes and government welfare. Haven't heard it for curtailing free speech yet, so this is a new one for me. How exciting.

They are included. Acting on them though is another matter.

The same for you, my good man!

YOUR manners and YOUR decency. You see, it all goes back to wanting people to live by YOUR standards and not the standards they choose.

I'm not talking about the legality of it. No, if the owner of the place you're using your speech doesn't like it, they have every right to kick you the fuck out. That's not what I'm arguing against here. I'm talking about people pressing the "Freak the Fuck Out" button whenever anybody says something that's mildly…

It sure does!

It's all the same. It's all just people trying to control you and your ideas. The wording matters not, for it's the same crime. Fascism by any other name...

As much until the fascists are satisfied. The PC police are out for you now bitch!

That sounds like some gold ol' fashion collectivism right there son.

But that's the point! People can express themselves in whatever way they desire. If I want to express myself by calling you a "gay nigger faggot bitch", that's my right. If you take offense to that, hey, whatever. I'm happy for you. That means you have a brain and a sense of self. Personal opinions. Fantastic. Now…

Do you know how paradoxical what you just said is?

Brilliant. This is exactly the kind of response people should have. Make fun of these fascists. Laugh at their attempts to control you. They're petty little insects and you are above them. Make light of their opinions because they are wrong and you are awesome. I like these guys. You go get 'em boys! Fuck those PC…

This is fucking stupid. OH NOES, THE PC POLICE ARE COMING FOR YOUR FIGHTING GAMES! What a joke. I don't intend to tell Capcom what to do with their property, but people are making way to big a deal out of this. Offended? Get the fuck over it. Opinions and free speech are about getting people offended. That's how ideas…

I was always hoping for July 4th, but whatever. I'm just glad to know there's a date set for this year.

Yes, well, that's how the free market works. You can always refuse to pay folks. You just have to have a little resolve.

Okay, so where the fuck is an action figure of DOG? I've been asking for one for 3 years now and Valve finally drops some official merch like this and I don't get my DOG figure!? GODDAMMIT GABE, GOD DAMN IT!

Bracing for more disappointment!

It actually isn't really, but at the time I didn't know. Still, hard enough for a guy with slow reflexes to give pause.
