Never even said that childish insults were the same as violent threats.That's a untrue statement and I will not allow you to pretend that is what I said.<br /><br />Someone has been arrested somewhere for something to prove or disprove any point you want to make. I gave not a damn who Quinn or Sarkeesian are or what they have done. If you look at every single group of people of considerable size, from the hippies to the Nazis, from the Conservatives to the Liberals, you will find someone to condemn and someone to praise for some action performed on some day.<br /><br />None of that alters the fact that saying "all liberals should be in favor of free speech 100% of the time with no exceptions" is a ridiculous statement that doesn't match any reasonable version of reality. Are all conservatives in favor of free and easy access to guns for all people 100% of the time? I think not. Are all conservatives against abortion in all cases 100% of the time? No.<br /><br />In the real world, real people and groups of real people actually display sometimes contradictory behavior, and gradients of behavior that do not fit into convenient little exclusionary groups.StevenWarblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12697680166430879676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-2100418328928978062015-10-09T09:42:39.126-03:002015-10-09T09:42:39.126-03:00I hope that turns out to be true.I hope that turns out to be true.RPGPundithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17267330191433119298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-17608672092198450952015-10-09T08:33:31.973-03:002015-10-09T08:33:31.973-03:00I saw the interview and I agree with you.

Free speech is a great umbrella right, but the majority of liberals are perfectly fine with limiting it in certain narrow cases (yelling fire in a movie theater, child pornography, etc). But such fine gradiations of thought may be too hard to see for the Right Wingers wistfully looking back to the days of slavery, legal rape and genocide.StevenWarblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12697680166430879676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-5638823806619800532015-10-08T15:23:38.532-03:002015-10-08T15:23:38.532-03:00One would think all liberals, or those who claim t...One would think all liberals, or those who claim to be liberal or progressive or whatever the new term is, would be in favor of free speech 100% of the time with no exceptions.

I know a year ago, you weren't really into the GamerGate issue, but now you see what's been going on there, and more importantly how it's a wider issue, especially as it relates to tabletop RPGs and - well - everything else. These termites have been eating away behind the walls of every hobby for years, and it's finally coming to light. It's interesting, really - I imagine with a little bit of research someone could produce a timeline of when all the Special Snowflakes went to College, what classes they took, who their professors were, and develop an entire thesis for the origins of this insane, wide-spread, and suddenly dangerous campaign to change society from within.
