Beste speech van de maand

De eerste opvallende #speech is die van John Larson. Hij is een democraat in het Huis van Afgevaardigden. Hij is lid van een commissie die over de financiën gaat. Tijdens een van de zittingen van deze commissie wilden de democraten met Elon Musk in gesprek. Maar hij kwam niet opdagen. En daar had #Larson het een en ander over te zeggen.

UKpol, speech generally

And this idea that it isn't about the speech but in the presentation is ignorant and about as dumb as a cheese grater dildo.

"Oh you can say what you like as long as the ppl you're criticizing are okay with your presentation" like wtf are you smoking? That's not how expression works. That's not how human rights work.

Govt should not be censoring viewpoints. It is our job as communities to out and shame terrible views.

UKpol, speech generally

Just to defend @VulpineDruid against the anti-rights ppl she was chatting with about the UK and speech...

Ppl can and been arrested for speech critical of the monarchy. It's not super diff to find, so anyone screaming abt it being "disinfo" to say so is either lying or willfully ignorant.

As for govt banning private speech incl classed as hate speech, that is 100% a dumb, short sighted idea that dies nothing to curb the ideas.
