Video games do not facilitate gun violence.
Video games do not facilitate gun violence.
I mean, you could just replace a few words in Henson’s statement and you get this much more accurate quote;
Shout out to the Gamergate kiddies who helped elect Trump because they thought the other side were the ones who wanted to censor video games.
I can very easily understand the White House’s disgust with those gaming clips.
So essentially:
Found the guy who was upset about International Women’s Day.
I’m feeling super left out today and I’m going to have to take the other 364 days in a year to nurse my wounds.
An unfettered, absolute right to access any platform you want free of any countervailing critical speech by members of the community whose platform you are using, outside of the designated area and format of your speech, is “one of the most important aspects of a free society”?
Damn, a whole comment that’s dumb as hell!
If I’m not allowed to come to the GMG offices later today and personally make fun of Drew Magary for his Chopped appearance, I will be filing a complaint at the Hague for violation of my human rights!
You are right, debate is dead, indeed when asked to speak or debate in neutral locations that don’t give their followers a rise the alt-right has said no. Because it was never about debate to begin with. It was specifically about invading a ‘safe space.’
“free speech” doesn’t entitle people to take over any platform at…
“Debating” half-baked quackery is not a valuable use of anyone’s time. Have you ever argued with a flat-earther? Did you learn anything?
Is a college campus the only place a debate can take place at?
Many people who want to ‘debate’ do so in bad faith. Take the Berkeley campus, it’s a choice for alt-right speakers so they can show their followers they’re sticking it to those dirty hippie liberals on their own turf. When debates are proposed in neutral…
With that out the way, what I don’t understand is why aren’t colleges and law schools creating forums for people with questionable opinions (left, right, center, upside down, whatever) to have to debate each other on the points of their positions.
Not one iota.
You can’t separate fascism from nationalism. That’s a basic marker of the term. al-Sisi’s increasingly open and brutal authoritarian state has fascist tendencies. People you don’t like on the far-left (there is no alt-left, that’s an alt-right meme and a lie) are almost certainly not nationalists.
Care to elaborate? This is honestly complete philosophical gibberish to me, sorry. What does socialist financial policy have to do with anything in this article?
If this is your definition of fascism then I guess Bari was right, fascism no longer has meaning. Good lord, read a book once in awhile.
Can people like Weiss and Bret Stephens and George Will please draw up a list of people whose right to free speech now apparently extends to the right to a platform free of challenge, such that it is literally immoral and un-American to criticize anything they say? This idea is very foreign to me.
Antifa are fascists and nazis are good people on their side. Up is down, black is white.
