What is hilarious is that haters don't get that when people have their hateful opinion, other people can also have their opinion about their hateful opinion. And that includes laughing when a website full of hate is down.
Never said they couldn't laugh. I welcome them having their say and opinion. I'm also welcome to point out the dangerous pathway that leads towards. We can do this all day. I'm not the one of the side of 'remove all their comments and silence all critics; - they are.
I simply pointed out where their thinking leads to. How quickly people are just willing to discard certain things because their 'slay yaaas queen fav' had some negative comments made at them.
And one thing I have noticed is that it's always the Trump supporters who love blasting their hate, but then scream "Free Speech!!!" when all someone else does is have an opinion about their hate. So, you got it exactly the wrong way around
Trump supports and right wingers use the disingenuous argument you use all time - it's why I despise them and their ilk.
They'll yell free speech - but only if it's their speech. The moment they had people that disagreed or that had opinions they didn't like - shut em down. You see what some of the legislation some of them enact? Exactly what the people I criticized were doing - the EXACT same thinking.
Here in my country, you know who brings all the 'defamation' lawsuits? - massive corporations and rich people trying to silence truthful reporting. The latest high profile case was Murdoch (Fox news CEO) suing an independent journalism outfit for pointing out the effect Fox News and their like have in disrupting democracy. Luckily, for my country and justice system, most of those fail, but that's massive time and money last.
And people like the first 9-10 commenters would happily sell it down the river. They're exactly the type of people to vote for a politician that goes 'oh we'll stop your faves having negative comments' - they'd be the first cheerleaders in line. Children with stars in their eyes.
I see exactly how 'defamation' is used all the time. As a weapon.
Exactly how the first commenters reacted.
They have a right to say it, and I have a right to point out how dystopian that kind of thinking is. People that have a slavishness to corporate products they'll lose all perspective.
People who spend all their time being anti's are dumb. People whose posting focuses entirely on posting negative memes, or make comments - they're stupid people. I've no doubt there's some unsavoury shit said. And if you wholeheartedly cheer that all negative opinions, all criticism should be silenced - that's Brave New World esque thinking. Your worse then those idiots. Grow up and think of the ramifications.
