    Must watch out for the dangerous ideas.

    It certainly isn’t perfect but I think the very worst reason to run counter to the spirit of free speech is because one is offended by the message.

    It would be nice to see some kind of documentary done spelling out exactly how these people package their ideology, but I can understand and support A&E’s decision.

    If you’re afraid that a bad idea will attract recruits, you’re one very small step away from censorship.

    Graaaah! I am mad on the internet at a guy who wrote a thing! Graaah!!!

    ...isn’t that the same for any job? If you don’t do your job for political reasons, you lose your job? Why should the Rockettes get special exception?

    I have a fake tree that I have had for like...man. Almost 20 years now. And it’s a great tree. I always have a tree every year, it isn’t messy, is not a fire hazard, does not risk bringing bugs or whatever into the house, I don’t have to pay for it again annually, and I like it. It’s my tree.

    So Cho lied on Tilda Swinton. That says much about Cho.

    Okay, that makes sense then.

    ...I’m kind of thinking this looks like a violation of the 1st Amendment, actually. Offensive speech shared between juveniles is somehow grounds to expel them from school? That seems extremely legally improper, to me. We aren’t talking about adults being fired from a job here.

What sickens me is that these people claim some kind of morality along with their political tribalism and then go out and have violent protests, raise hell, and actively engage in the same

    Honestly I don’t think they should even give her this much press. It’s one thing to deride and fire her (a good thing) but another thing to give her a spotlight for derision.

    Stories like this make me feel safer, honestly. Russia’s self-defeating incompetence when it comes to basic things like maintenance, investment, and the welfare of its people means we don’t have to worry quite so much about them becoming the USSR again.

    I for one am shocked and horrified that Hollywood movie makers participate in exploitative behavior that objectifies people, women included.

    I’m kind of digging the art style for Captain Marvel.

    Sigh. China...you get everything wrong. Everything.

    You lose points for not knowing who the President of the United States is.

    ...how is this genocide?

    I dunno. Honestly I think that was pretty damned funny. The car driver was being a rude moron.

    I know I always choose where to live based on whether the people there offend me politically or not.
