“Liberal attitudes towards the other are characterized both by respect for otherness, openness to it, and an obsessive fear of harassment. In short, the other is welcomed insofar as its presence is not intrusive, insofar as it is not really the other. Tolerance thus coincides with its opposite. My duty to be tolerant towards the other effectively means that I should not get too close to him or her, not intrude into his space—in short, that I should respect his intolerance towards my over-proximity. This is increasingly emerging as the central human right of advanced capitalist society: the right not to be ‘harassed’, that is, to be kept at a safe distance from others.”
Slavoj Žižek, Against Human Rights

“I am alone in the midst of these happy, reasonable voices. All these creatures spend their time explaining, realizing happily that they agree with each other. In Heaven's name, why is it so important to think the same things all together. ”
Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea

Liberalism is the fear that somehow, somewhere, someone in the world is enjoying themselves.

No. Why would they do that?
Because BLM is a bunch of rioting thugs smashing windows and stealing TVs.
More anger and liberal bashing. Facebook is a private company. Like I said, they can censor you if they want. You consented to it in the terms of service when you signed up.
At least we cleared up what a Libertarian is, you f*cking moron. And you either support free speech or you don't. Free speech mean free outrageous, offensive speech, not the right to say "Yay!".

Ever notice how when it comes to free health care, Liberals scream "Law of the Land!" but when it comes to illegal aliens, it's "Don't say illegal, that offends people who are burning our flag and raping each other on their way to stealing our jobs".

Or Retard.

Comedian Ralphie May has a routine where he points out that retarded people aren't offended at that word....because they're retarded. But people who are not retarded have decided to get offended on behalf of a third party who has suffered no harm whatsoever from that word.
As someone with a "retarded" (intellectually disabled) family member, I can confirm this. If I call them a retard they just laugh at me. Their mother on the other hand, utterly hates the word. I tried explaining the above concept to her, that you shouldn't care if they don't but it was lost.

The word retard used to bother me as a kid but having grown up and realized that words only have the power you give them, I really couldn't give a **** what you say to or about me or anyone else I care about. Why would you give a **** what some random idiot thinks about you? It's so strange.

Political correctness, is at this point, ****ing retarded. It's too much. All it does is focus on negativity and intent is completely disregarded. It refuses intellectual honesty, as it must to survive. It's sad times for the open expression of ideas.

I used to like the Black Eyed Peas song Let's Get Retarded...for about a week, until they changed it to Let's Get It Started, so as not to offend anyone.

Quite the imagination you have there.

You consented to facebook, a private company, terms of service when you signed up. Free speech protects you from government censorship. You're the idiot, not me.

I didn't answer the question?

You're right.

Why is EyeBRollin a flaming fagg*t? An introspective:

I signed up for Facebook 5 f*cking years ago. We didn't have a problem with confused men trying to go into ladies rooms then, nor did we have the type of wussies who would honor their request. I was never told they would censor my posts based on their own political bullsh!t. Anyone who supports censorship because they happen to disagree with what is being censored ranks among the most profoundly retarded and Unamerican individuals on Earth. Just wait until your beliefs are considered unpopular.

EyeBRollin is a Communist parasite who wants your wallet.

If you don't support free speech for your worst enemy, you don't support it at all.

It does not matter why. As you stated before in regards to their banning someone for using the word "tranny", it is their right.

So you support the banning of someone for saying "tranny"?
I don't, but my opinion isn't relevant. I agreed to the terms of service of a private company.

Aww, resorting to insults? :)

I guarentee you transgender women were using the ladies bathroom five years ago.

Don't like it, use another social media forum. Freedom of speech applies to the government.

I have a funny feeling my bank account has more in it than yours.

Faulty premise. Facebook is not a government entity.
