Amateur hour wumming- throw enough shit up to distract. If you’re gonna rise know when to quit

Thomas_Brady · April 22, 2023, 10:49am

Where’s the hate speech?

maroonandwhite · April 22, 2023, 11:16am

So no hate speech despite all that research. Holy fuck.

Cheasty · April 22, 2023, 11:24am

Well obviously racist white supremacist fucks like you and Tom Brady think not because to youse there is no such thing as hate speech by racist white supremacists.

Cheasty · April 22, 2023, 11:28am

Shit would be one way of describing what Tucker Carlson says. It would be a very charitable way of describing it.

Didn’t you vote for Vicky Phelan for COTY?

binkybarnes · April 22, 2023, 11:41am

Ah lads, by any reasonable standards there is a lot of examples of hate speech given there.

Thomas_Brady · April 22, 2023, 11:44am

He has given some horrible opinions, agreed. Hate speech, I’m not so sure.

Keadyshouldhaveplayedin89 · April 22, 2023, 11:55am

Literally half a thread of it.

The recent liable action against Fox News was very interesting and it revealed Tucker in a light that surprised me. He passionately dislikes Donald Trump apparently, but nevertheless he continued to reinforce the nonsense Trump spouted after the 2020 election. Nonsense that has so far cost Murdoch $740 million or so.

StoneCold · April 22, 2023, 11:55am

Seems pretty much like hate speech to me

maroonandwhite · April 22, 2023, 12:00pm

Some strong opinions, but of course this stream of opinions is written by someone with a clear bias against Tucker Carlson, using inflammatory language that Sid hates, just hates, is now being allowed on twitter

Cheasty · April 22, 2023, 12:05pm

Any normal and reasonable person has a strong bias against Tucker Carlson.

It isn’t inflammatory to point out the reality that Tucker Carlson is a racist white supremacist.

Paddy Cosgrave has a million bots? Surely not?

myboyblue · April 22, 2023, 1:22pm

Show me a fella who supports Paddy and I see a fella not worth engaging with

Tierneevin1979 · April 22, 2023, 2:13pm

The looney left hate free speech because their own opinions are sacrosanct and beyond question. Even though many of their own opinions are batshit and far more harmful to society than conservative opinion. Every major city in the US has been turned into a third world shithole precisely because of looney left beliefs and policies, such as violent criminals are the victims that need protecting.

They hate Elon because he has restored free speech on Twitter. It’s an exmple of how authoritarian the left has become, zero tolerance for any opinion other than their own. The suppression of the New York Post story on Hunter Biden’s laptop the prime example. It is now abundandedly clear that the suppression was orchestrated by Biden’s campaign team, a flagrant attack on democracy. But the left don’t care because oraange man bad.

The tide is turning though, at least in the US. The loons are being exposed for what they are, loons. Think of the policies thay have nailed their colors to the mast on: Children should be allowed transition if that’s what they want, to say otherwise is hate speech. Men who think they are women should be allowed compete in women’s sports and frequent their bathrooms, to say otherwise is hate speech. Only white people commit hate crimes, to say otherwise is hate speech. The system is stacked agiant minorities, even though minorities outperform whites in education and career accomplishment.

In other words, black is white, postmoderanism at its finest.
