It amuses me in general how little conservative posters here understand what "hate-speech" actually is, despite many discussions of it.

But it's not as if I am the arbiter of that.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

So, you'll just continue pitching hissies and making idiot allegations of moral turpitude. If it were in your power, you'd be yelling (channellng JimL here) "Lock em up" "Lock em up""The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

Originally posted by Zymologist View PostI asked you how many times you call conservatives on here sociopaths, etc. because you do it frequently.
Obviously we're all aware of my abysmally low opinion of the conservative posters on this site and my occasional expression of my views on the subject. I am not sure why you want an exact count of how often I've expressed this view. Would you also like an exact count of how often I've been insulted by posters here? I can tell you that's a bigger number by an order of magnitude."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump

Originally posted by Starlight View PostIt surely needs it. I don't think God exists though, which is probably good for the US, otherwise he'd have wiped it off the face of the earth for it's various war-crimes already.
This phrase is new to me and I find it quite an amusing phrase. Makes me think of turps as in turpentine.Moral turpitude is a legal concept in the United States and some other countries that refers to "an act or behavior that gravely violates the sentiment or accepted standard of the community".
This describes the goofy accusations you freely spew forth. It's also against Tweb decorum to make such allegations without, at the time of the accusations, providing proof. Your sorry interpretation of discussions of ILGA/NAMBLA as "hate speech" does not qualify as proof.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
