RandAlThorBernie Sanders Receives Praise From Left And Right For Charlie Kirk Message: ‘Best Take I’ve Seen’
“A free and democratic society, which is what America is supposed to be about, depends upon the basic premise that people can speak out, organize, and take part in public life without fear, without worrying that they might be killed, injured, or humiliated for expressing their political views,”
Except that’s not what America is today…
There’s nothing wrong with working towards a better America, it’s what we should all be doing…
But a war has never been won with hugs. And whether we want to be in it or not, we’re in a war against fascism.
I’ve been saying it a lot lately, but it bares repeating:
Work for the world you want to live in, prepare for the world you already live in
SchmooWhy include ‘humiliated’ as something people should be protected from for expressing their political views? Fascists should absolutely be humiliated when they spew their bile in public. The first amendment is supposed to protect you from state censorship, not social pressure or ostracization.
I’m not Bernie Sanders…
Question wasn’t directed at you, I was just putting it out there.
Question wasn’t directed at you
I mean, it literally was…
That’s how replies work.
But Id be really surprised if explaining helps.
We use social media a bit differently, there’s no need to be rude. Replies on a public forum are a one-to-many communication. I replied to your comment to establish the context, but the question was directed to no one in particular. It was intended to foster discussion.
