Oh golly gee:
And in the words of the immortal Jimmy Durante:
And just like that poor toon is gone again.
What can I say besides sometimes doing the right thing requires sacrifice, in this case a relatively small one.Predictably, he had nothing and can’t discuss beyond flaccidly expressing smugness.

You did it in this very thread.You find and samples of me throwing around “liberals” yet?
You did it in this very thread.
No. I didn’t.
CNN are experts at getting Trump stories wrong and underselling him. Not always. But often.
First piece of advice I have regarding stories like this is to ask yourself if you are open to the idea that he actually does have a good relationship with them and that the perception he doesn’t may be yet another troll job. If you can’t acknowledge that as at least a possibility it’s hard to discuss. In my opinion you are the best shot on this board of a liberal (probably not a leftist) that can have an interesting convo.
All that said, he may have bad relationships with some of them. If he does they’ll be replaced. Is that bad?
And just like that, Ann Coulter was a liberal hero.
By the way dummy, Greenwald is the non-leftist liberal @Ponca Dan advised you to learn about. Quit being stupid and try to learn something. Collusion is over.
She’s a throwback liberal that seems more 90’s than 2010’s.
Also, wood.
@Been Jammin is probably a perfect example of this. Nice classic liberal guy that never speaks out on things he (probably) finds repulsive because he’s brand loyal. He just avoids the threads that would put him in team conflict by having to choose between openly support leftist politics that he (probably) finds disgusting and calling them out with the rest of the centrists (aka far right republicans, according to @Syskatine @07pilt etc) that some leftist policies are blatantly anti-Constitution, anti-American and in some cases (3rd trimester abortions) objectively evil.
Wasn’t there some kind of study about the average every day Germans who turned a blind eye to Nazi atrocities? Whatever facilitates that kind of passive acquiescence to bad ideas then is the same problem average centrist democrats are facing today. No idea what it’ll take to wake them up at this point and take back control of their formerly liberty focused party.
Ah... cool. What do we call “involuntarily celibate” leftists who only hate non leftist women?
First I’m hearing about this incel stuff’s origin story but it seems overly categorized - at least as far as the women go. I’ve never noticed a sexual difference in women who’ve voted “conservative” vs “liberal” myself.
Are you just spitballing regarding the housewife theory? Housewives are great if you can afford them.
I rarely even use the word. I used it today and asked, “when did liberals stop believing in free speech?”
I asked it that way because I respect “liberals.” They were always champions of free speech. And now, any of them that speak up in its defense are labeled “conservative.”
Civil rights. A mystery to whatever you are?
Why do you continue to engage? The one sidedness of the conversations can't be enjoyable.Freedom of religion is a civil right. Picking on one of a dozen local bakers is stalking.

You cant be a platform if you are picking and choosing what people can post
Your point is that you are very specific about liberals?Thanks for proving me right I guess?
The Ann Coulter comment is the closest thing you can find. I always point out the difference between liberals (free speech warriors) and leftists (commie scum).

Brain pill mongers should be a protected class in the constitution. Not only do they have a right to free speech they have a right to be heard.
social media? a protected class? FOHThe question here is whether social media needs to be a protected class. Clearly you think so, but you have yet to provide a case for your opinion.

You are going to have to state your case instead of dancing around it. I already answered the section 230 red herring.Have you not been paying attention? Are you so busy projecting both sides of the debate here that you don't know what people have been stating in the thread?
You think people have the right to deny them public accommodation on the basis of religion.I actually am. You can't articulate any way I am not.

You sure do throw around "the left" and "liberals" a lot for a someone who is so allergic to labels.
Because it is legal framework the internet is built on. You want to see free speech curtailed, repeal 230.It's not my case, it's the US government's case via legislation and court rulings. Links have already been posted.
But let's start with you. Why is the case of immunity provided by Section 230 and court cases a "red herring" in your eyes?
who said anything about prejorative? You are parsing language that isn't even there.I was answering your baseless allegation that you have wholly failed to back up. I do throw around "the left" and "leftists" because they suck and need to be culturally and politically ground into the dust. I do not throw around "liberals" as a pejorative - as you lied about me doing right here.
And then you proceeded to pull a handful of times I used the world "liberal" and in every case but one, I made a clear distinction between liberals (whom I respect) and leftists (whom I loathe). You proved my point nicely. Thanks?
They are not the same thing, and you should be ashamed to call yourself a liberal while spouting anti-free speech propaganda from corporate information monopolies.

The context of my quote is you use political labels a lot for some one who objects to the word "conservative" being uttered.I see. So you are claiming that wasn't the context of your quote? How then do I "throw the word around?" I doubt it's in the top 2000 words I use the most frequently in my posts. Can you look into that?

Lazy how so?Uttered? no. Lazily misapplied? yes. My larger point was basically that you are lazy.

Yeah if a social media platform discriminated on the basis of sex or race that would be covered by the CRAPublic accommodation... like... say social media?
There is only one facebook, but there are literally dozens of social networks. I mean any ol' bakery will do if you don't care about the quality of your buttercreamI mean, there's only one Facebook, but there are literally dozens of bakeries on any local google search.
Megapoke: small businesses should be able to discriminate against gay people.Oh, and yes. If you aren't a public utility (or don't essentially operate as one) any small business should be able to refuse to do any kind of business they don't want to do, for whomever they don't want to do it for. Absolutely.
That's right, it is okay to discriminate based on politics, not sexual orientation. You nailed the distinction.Someone wants to hire me to shoot a white nationalist wedding, I'm under no obligation to serve them and would decline because I don't agree with their politics. I don't need any other reason than that. But some other photographer turns down a lesbian couple's wedding, and I would be happy to take their money.
Wow so far you have compared gay people wanting a wedding cake to white nationalists and satanists harassing bakers. I guess you are a true ally to the gays the same way you are a free speech warrior.But I hate gays because I also think a small business should be able to serve or not serve whom they want? You do realize the last time this bakery was harassed, they wanted a dildo cake? I don't shoot porn and I wouldn't expect a reputable baker to have to bake it.
