It'll be interesting to see how everyone reacts to "free speech" (which we dont have here on the nbr anymores).
Define free speech.
I'd define it as: The freedom to say what you like without fear of reprisal; regardless of a person(s) orientation or hyprocrisy of it (you cant say that b/c I'm "xxx" but I can say and do whatever I like b/c I am "xxx" so na na).
And yes, that includes the dreaded hate speech and I'll even just allude to those "deniers" as well. Everyone has a right to it, even if or especially if you dont like it. I know you all will have a hard time believing this but I'm a pretty indifferent mofo when it comes down to it. That's probably one reason why I'm still posting here.
Reprisal is an act of retaliation which could come in the form of a rebuttal of whatever shitty thing it is you had to say.
See how your free speech is one sided? You want the right to say whatever you want but nobody else has the right to react negatively to it which is taking away their free speech.
Your lack of free speech is nothing more than the lack of a safe space.
