Meanwhile, Bradley manning gets pardoned with an apology for treason. Huh.



How are the two even slightly related?

It's just the conservatrolls go to whenever someone who can be considered right leaning gets in trouble. Just ignore them.

it's also weird that they insist on deadnaming her

people from different cultural, religious and ethnic, etc backgrounds

basically a heterogeneous population rather than a homogenous one

what else could it mean tbh

This is what it actually means.

But in Hollywood, it just means "more black people." The cast of the upcoming Black Panther movie is praised as diverse.

genetically speaking, there's way more diversity among black people than among white people

it doesn't make sense to ask america to be more or less white though, because "white" encompasses so many different cultures

you're on the verge of an epiphany here


just fyi in case you didn't realize this, but i couldn't care less about your personal opinions on anything lol

then it's a good thing that wasn't a personal opinion

it is if you use it correctly

Depriving someone of their livelihood because you don't like something they said is objectively a form of censorship, regardless of whether we assume it's justifiable or political correctness gone mad. You are applying restrictions on the free speech of your employees.

ok, it's censorship. I guess that means that I'm pro-censorship. big whoop.

TradPaladin01 posted...
You'll have to slow down and make real arguments before you throw in the buzzwords. How does me having a different opinion than you "harm marginalized groups"? And how are conservatives not themselves a marginalized group in universities? They're so marginalized that the threat of violence even exists, unlike with racial or sexual minorities on campuses.

conservative policies are not just a matter of having "a different opinion"

a "difference in opinion" is for people who listen to musical soundtracks in the car. not for people who try to take away poor peoples' healthcare

That's considered censorship.

do you also consider it censorship when someone gets fired from their job for being racist

TradPaladin01 posted...
See above. If someone no-platformed a member of one of the groups you mentioned, on the basis of their identity, you would try to get the government involved, on the basis of it being "discrimination". So how can you call for more discrimination against conservatives without turning them into a literal marginalized group?

because facing consequences for trying to harm marginalized groups is not the same thing as facing discrimination

You're probably just a Marxist who wants special rights for demographics who vote Democrat, but assuming you're not a total joke, try putting yourself in someone else's shoes and explain how you're not hypocritical.

what on earth does Marxism have to do with the Democratic Party in the US?

So normal conservative beliefs are "stupid shit" now. Classy.

"stupid" no; "harmful to already vulnerable people" yes

Define harmful and define vulnerable.

And explain how censoring conservatives doesn't then them into a marginalized minority also.

by "vulnerable" I mean marginalized groups. poor people, people of colour, women, LGBT+ people, disabled people, etc.

by "harmful" I mean that conservative policies disproportionately hurt those marginalized people.

as for your last demand, conservatives are not being censored - though they sometimes have a platform taken away. even if they were being harmed by others, that harm would be a reaction against their harmful ideology.

conservatives getting "weeded" out

fucking lol


This so hard. Give me a break @Callixtus, you can't actually believe that right?

At least not outside of like Evergreen. I have more than a few conservative friends at Berkeley that love it there so we can't use that one either.

Yes, I do actually think it happens. Look at the link I posted. No I don't think that these professors are overtly forced out, but the environment is so hostile to conservatism that some are all but forced out.

Here are some other examples:

I'm surprised it's taken this long for the "free speech" non-issue to enter the topic
