    You do realize that free expression requires that you permit things as reprehensible as racism, transphobia, homophobia right? You’re literally doing the “Well I dislike it, so I’m revoking their rights” thing. I frankly don’t give a shit what they “call for” unless they’re trying to incite imminent unlawful acts. The crutch for the weak-minded and stupid is asserting yourself as the only moral and political authority and pretending that this will not immediately blow back up in your face. If being an actual liberal with principles is right-wing, then I guess I’m right-wing. It’s better than being a spineless succ with no principles and who thinks liberty is removing the liberty of others.

    they just SAY it!

      They would have absolutely zero disagreement with a Nazi putting minorities in death camps so long as it’s the law of the land.

      Damn that’s what we’ve been missing. Instead of saying “Shoot the landlords (in minecraft)” we should have been saying “shoot the landlords (at sometime in the non-imminent future).”
