"We're free speech absolutists, so here's a list of banned words and books."
"I'm committed to personal freedom and free markets, so my newspaper will only publish views exactly aligned to mine."
"We are tough-on-crime, except if it's by one of our guys."
I wish this was hyperbole.
The mask is well and truly off.
There is invariably clown makeup beneath the mask.
Hypocrite: One who adopts a faux intellectual persona to speak in pretentious supercilious tones promoting spectacularly sophomorically simplistic ideas as solutions to intractably complex problems.
Hypercrite: A hypocrite who injects ketamine at risk of rapid unscheduled disassociation.
Hippocrite: A large insentient venomous red creature native to Magastan prone to attacking humanitarians while disguised as an elephant. Often found in the shards of china shops trying to adjust intricate Swiss watches using sledgehammers and chainsaws.
A close relative to the Smarmy Nepocrite found in the swamps and marshes of the Southern United States.
I believe the term they were looking for was "free speech abolitionists."
The world would be much saner if Ayn Rand had boldfaced and underlined the word "intelligent" in the libertarian scribbles that are so often cited by libertines to justify their selfishness.
