taken from the politics board: She went home for a vacation. Now a Saudi woman is facing 34 years in prison for sharing her views on social media, human rights groups say, in a case they have condemned as the latest worrying sign of the kingdom's crackdown on dissent. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/saudi-arabia-woman-34-years-prison-twitter-activity-rcna43472 --- https://imgur.com/gallery/noqoWTm ...

It seemed that you were using a horrible action by an oppressive government to dunk on the libs and some perceived hypocrisy. It came off as a weird deflection, for whatever reason you did it.If you dont like to be criticized, just say so. I do it because it annoys me that CE libs pay lip service to free speech without really valuing it. I would much rather people just be honest and say they hold other things in higher esteem than free speech. Thats perfectly acceptable, regardless of whether I agree or disagree. I may be wrong or they may be wrong, but some honesty would be nice from our moral torchbearers. Besides, people use horrible actions to dunk on their adversaries and their perceived hypocrisy all the time. Dont act like you dont mock repugs when their elected officials do something morally obscene. You just dont like it when its you. DrizztLink posted...

even if you believe liberals on this board don't value free speech, using this case to point fingers isn't the "gotcha" that you're making it out to be. at worst, they might be saying that someone should lose their Twitter privileges, not that they should be imprisoned for their posts. one is a censor on free speech while the other is just the loss of one platform to express it on. --- https://streamable.com/zrtjki ...
