If I decide, even with cause, that you're a racist, do I have a right to punch you in the nose? Or burn down your house?

Are those opposing ideas bigoted? Because that would not just be a difference of opinion.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

So, when the left declares somebody is a bigot, and uses that to refuse to tolerate their speech, that's bigotry.
The left use "bigotry" as their excuse to be intolerant of "bigoted" speech, therefore, proving their own bigotry.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

It would be your (or somebody's) opinion that those ideas are bigoted.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostI think, rather, that Leon is an atypical liberal. In my experience (and not just on the internet but in real life, too), liberals tend to be angry, irrational people whenever the topic wanders into politics or religion.

Originally posted by Psychic Missile View PostIsn't intolerance to race, sexuality, or gender identity an orthodox definition of bigotry? How specifically is bigotry being defined to include almost anything? You've mentioned critical race theory and white fragility (neither of which I know much about), can you elaborate how these concepts relate?
Why all white people are racist, but can't handle being called racist: the theory of white fragility

And PM, do you think it is phobic to say that a biological man can not be a woman? Yet people are being canceled for saying exactly that. J.K. Rowling is the latest.

Originally posted by Sparko View PostWhen conservatives PEACEABLY protested in Michigan, again liberals and the Governor acted to shut it down and condemn it.
I am left to wonder if you would have used the same language to describe a group of American Muslims or Black Americans who had arrived dressed and equipped in precisely the same manner."It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so."

The Allies hanged Streicher for doing nothing more than expressing his opinions.
There may also be occasions when despite our right to say what we think, it is politic, tactful [and dare I suggest polite] not to do so.
Inviting individuals who are known for their inflammatory and [to some] offensive language strikes me as tactics that might be considered similar to those of the agent provacateur."It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible
It ain't necessarily so."
